Is iRobot worth watching? I know that Will Smith is a great actor and I've seen many memes about it.
It’s a good flick, I enjoyed it
If you’re an avid Asimov fan, you should know it’s only loosely related to the iRobot stories.
Yeah it's a decent early 2000s sci-fi action yarn.
I liked it just fine!
I know there are a lot of Asimov diehards that found it disappointing. I don't know why. The iRobot book wasn't even really a book, it was a collection of short stories. Not exactly an easy thing to adapt to a movie.
Is iRobot worth watching?
That, detective, is the right question.
My wife enjoys it and I don't mind it? I'd say worth a watch.
I remember really liking it, when I first saw it, but I was in high school, at the time.
It's a film (like many at the time) that's much more influenced by the impact of 9/11 than Asimov.
You'll probably be entertained though (it's certainly still a competently made film) so I'd say watch it; that way you can know what others are referring to and be in on the cultural zeitgeist.
