I-Robot: More like Smooth-Ass

Last night I went to see I-Robot, so here is my short but sweet verdict.

Will Smith is the main dude in a world where everyone loves robot-butlers, except him. He
hates them and is paranoid they are evil. I'm not going to go into the actual story any more,
but it is fairly predictable hollywood action spam. It feels like it's close to being good,
but it just doesn't get there. The story is OK, satisfactory for this sort of popcorn film.
But I get the feeling if the story was just a little better thought out, with something of
interest happening more often it could have been a cracking film. It's a 'lead you by the
nose' type of story to the films resolution so if you go expecting to get something out of
this film, you may be dissapointed. The acting is, again, acceptable. Nothing particularly
special, nothing particularly bad. And the effects, they were quite nice, but CGI effects
don't really count for much in my books.

There are some instances of blatent product advertising in this film which may get up some people's noses, from JVC and Audi. But worst of all, is that literally within 2 minutes of the film starting you are exposed to Will Smiths round, curvacious ass. Note: I didn't pay particular attention to his rear, i'm not gay. An ass of such magnitude so early on will stunyou, and in some casses, may turn you on. You have been warned.

This movie gets 2 and a half lasers out of 5

EDIT: Would have recieved 4/5 if Will Smith had done a rap about robots.

I guess it also depends if he has a nice ass... but no one really wants to see it for any more than a second in a movie thats not specifically titled "I-robot My-ass"
