I watched the move "Bicentennial Man" last night. Adapted from a novel by Issac Asimov, the story follows the life of an android who has a personality and would rather be human. I won't give to much away.
I liked the movie because of a couple of things. One is, like many movies, the music, it is very well orchestrated and played. I also like the story a lot. As I said earlier I won't give to much away. But I will say that, in the middle of the movie, he starts to pursue his quest as a human by putting on a human appearance (F.Y.I. it's very Robin Williams like). But even with this we are frequently reminded that he is, in fact, a robot. We are mainly reminded when he misunderstands human figures of speech and expressions. Which can lead to some good laughs.
It was a good family movie. I'm not sure why it got such bad reviews, because I thought that it was good.
The movie is rather touching at times, especially when Andrew (that is the robot's name) realizes that, as a robot, he is immortal, and everyone that he loves and cares about will die around him while he will continue through generations and generations without aging.
I suggest it if you need a good family movie.
