Yo this was solid, and also throwback to one of my favorite movies when I was younger. That last part got me good too

It was a weird movie. It was decent unto itself, but every single thing that directly borrowed a name or title from Asimov was completely bastardized.
Even the manner of the failure of the three laws. The robot short stories were all about the ways of the three laws were incompleted, but this exact scenario was handled in the stories by some computers that took over the world economy to maximize human safety and comfort.
Those same computer did it surreptitiously and phased themselves out once the best maxima they could obtain was achieved, because their very existence was itself harmful to humans. The movie did it with the most reductive possible variant of this.

That other way is boring though. No boom booms and shooty shooty scenes. However a movie about machines shutting themselves down in a society 100% dependent on machines could be interesting. That would create chaos, death, and destruction on a scale we barely moved during the World Wars. It would be a race against time for programmers, engineers, mechanics, and farmers to get systems back online before the human race tore itself apart.

I vowed to never watch this film as it was a total abomination to the author of the book it was meant to be based on, Isaac Asimov.
They took a story that went against everything he ever tried to say about robots, the total opposite of his entire message, and they just changed the character names to make it fit.
It's everything he hated about robot stories and the reason he started writing them in the first place was to show that robots need not be feared.
Watch Bicentennial Man with Robbin Williams if you want to see what his stories were really about.

At first I thought the tattoo's were great, and I loved your name on the cd player. Then I saw the dickbutt, and I was blown away. That roto / tracking + how it's conformed to his skin is awesome.
