I, Robot (2004)

  I remember seeing this movie back when it first came out but it's been about a decade and I couldn't recall what it was about really.  I got a copy in the box that the Bowen so kindly gifted me which seemed like the perfect opportunity to watch it again.

In the year 2060, robots have become mainstays in the American home.  Their operating systems follow three ironclad rules, stating that robots cannot cause a human being harm, must obey all commands given by humans unless it conflicts with rule #1, and can only defend themselves if it does not conflict with the first two.  Only police officer Del Spooner (Will Smith) remains suspicious of the devices.  When leading robotics pioneer Dr. Alfred Lanning (James Cromwell) is murdered, Spooner suspects Lanning's last project, a robot named Sonny (Alan Tudyk) had a hand in the matter. This starts Spooner on a path to full-blown revolution.

There's a reason I forgot everything involved with this movie.  It's just not very memorable.  Even the color palette is muted and drab.  It's entertaining enough the first time but not one that you're going to want to see over and over.  There's just not enough to it.
