Who's directing the film? It may end up the same disaster as Hollywood's "Solaris" -- Average movie goers got bored by it, fans of Tarkovsky's version despised it, and fans of Stanislaw Lem's book hated it ( many of them felt Tarkovsky's version fell short as well ). But since Will Smith is doing the action, maybe average movie goers will like "I Robot".
