Well, just saw it last night...

Overall: Pretty damn good. 

Problems: STUPID product placement that dragged me right out of the movie.

I was surprised that they had the option of two or three different
mechanisms for "3 law" breaking that they didn't exercise... and the
ending... well, that was interesting. I'm not entirely certain where the
story goes from thee.

On the whole though, I liked it. Certainly seemed true to Asimov to me.

He was better as the movie went on, but yes, a bit too wisecracky. I could
overlook that though, as he did a pretty good job on some of the higher
drama moments.

Well, it's definitely a watch then, but, I think I'll wait until it's on the
Netflix DVD list.
