Spooner provided action and comedy, while Sonny provided poingancy and emotion to the film. The main female lead however... was merely a flower vase, and acted more as a catalyst for the better scenes in the movie than as a scene maker herself.
I was so happy when it was revealed that Sonny was alive. [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font face="Verdana" size="3" color="#00FF00">My estimates exactly. I didn't go see this movie in theaters because it was a Will Smith movie and I am not a big fan of his movies. However I was impressed!!! This is my favorite film by Smith to date. Classic sci-fi theme despite the critics some of the technology in 2035 may very much like that. I believe I may have read the book, or saw a similar movie because I already knew the three laws of robotics, and new how logically the robots could interprete those laws differently than thay were meant to be. I am pretty sure this technology as been done before in another movie but my mind is foggy. Implemented well in this movie though.
While the Frankenstein theme as been done to death, this was a minor one, in the sense that man uses technology and that technology decides that in order to protect man it needs to protect man from himself. As well the AI evolving and warping the rules to achieve the goal it was created for, is another theme that could be studied more and as been done before, think sentinels in X-men comics. Also I caught a few smaller themes like you can't judge a book by its cover from the bionic arm, to Sonny's distict personality. If you only saw this as another Frankenstein, Jurassic Park movie you have only taken away a little piece of what the movie offered.
