      Once this movie gets going, it works, and it works well. It has a slow buildup, but its final third manages to generate some eye-popping thrills.

      It's a high-tech thriller that really works.

      Christian Science Monitor

      Less ambitious than "Blade Runner" but more coherent than "Artificial Intelligence: A.I.," which it vaguely resembles, I, Robot is best during homely moments when Smith shows his human side.

      For its first two acts this flashy vehicle is an anodized titanium streamline baby. Then comes a robot rumble that brings the action to a crashing halt.

      A routine Will Smith cop-on-the-hunt thriller at heart, I, Robot lacks imaginative excitement.

      Performances, plot and pacing are as mechanical as the hard-wired cast.

      Wall Street Journal

      Impressive for Patrick Tatopoulos's production design but depressive for the juiceless story.
