.... By Bicentennial man. I've studiously avoided it for 10 years, as it looked like a pile of shit (and as Robin Williams' films have been going down the toilet for some time - ref. "RV") . Watched it yesterday and was quite surprised how much better it was than I was expecting. Deserves more than the 6/10 on IMDB. Didn't realise it was based on an Asimov short story either. It doesn't say that on the packaging .... Paul.
