I liked it well enough! Bit much on the product placement, and no, it's not much like the original books, but it hits on the murder mystery aspects of Asimov's work.

    Asimov's mysteries always hinged on the laws of robotics. It always seemed like a robot did something, but if the laws of robotics were in force that couldn't have happened. But, it was always explained in a way that left the three laws intact.

    The "I, Robot" movie abandoned the 3 laws of robotics when convenient to the plot. That takes away the entire tension that made Asimov's stories interesting.
