September 15, 2009Over-hyped, badly directed and totally miscast. That aside, it's still a fairly entertaining film. Given to a better director and it could have been amazing!

March 5, 2008I barely remember this film - probably should rewatch it...but does it even deserve that? Dilemma

March 2, 2008I enjoyed this a lot more than some people did, though I do not remember it very well because I saw it several years ago. It has an interesting premise and says something about the value of life, and what it means to be human.

March 2, 2008This is a sweet movie in the same vein as 'A.I' and 'Short Circuit', a family robot is unique as he starts to feel and think like a human. Throughout the movie he tries to become more human, win his freedom and get recognition as a human. Great cast.

November 14, 2009I am not quite sure why this film was so often disliked by the critics. It is a bit overlong, and it does have some slow stretches, but otherwise I thought is was warm and wonderful. Good score, imaginative, and Robin Williams is great.
