It's a Speilberg! Great sfx and story. High-tech Pinocchio. Not really a "family" story. Well, unless your family has been de-sensitized by the movie industry already to sexual and violent content, that is. Then I guess your kiddies won't have nightmares of being shot through a cannon into a large fan that... well, you get the picture. Kind of eerie, in a way how it tries to lead us to believe that we, as humans, want to love and be loved and if we feel loved we can actually return that love. Even to a warm, cuddly machine that's programmed to love us. Ahhh, amore...
This movie has a lot of depth to the story for a sci fi type film. The acting is excellent. Haley is such a great little actor and of course Law is not bad to look at. Law plays an appropriate role, based on what I hear about his real life character, and plays it well. This film is a bit older but the special effects are still quite good compared to today's standards. There is not a lot of gruesome violence or bad language which is nice for a change. How it ends is- Kidding.
A husband decides to purchase a robot boy for his wife while their son is very sick and dying in the hospital. At first she is angry like anyone of us would be in her shoes, but then grows attatched. A series of strange and unfortunate events take place and the robot boy is on his own and on a mission to find his way back to her. He comes across Dr. Who (voiced by Robin Williams) and finds all of the answers he was looking for. I completely relate to his character right to the very end.

Outlines the difficulties for an 'artificial person' to learn the necessary skills and attributes to become more human than machine in its outlook and interactions. Easy to empathize with the 'child' for being framed by the mother's natural child and being abandoned by her because of it. The world is a dangerous place as as all children should be taught, though he has to learn it by experience. The ending will rip the heart out of anyone who has lost a parent.

Obviously not into sci-fi but I found this one very interesting. The depiction of humans being destructive is unsettling. Glamorized artificial robots comma this I like. There's just not enough artificial intelligence movies...
