Pros: Good movie for women Cons: not for young children
My husband and I took our two kids to see Bicentennial Man. My daughter is 11 and my son is 8.
I really liked the movie, my husband did not, my kids sort of liked it. It was a little too long and dragged a little at times. I was a little...

Pros: Good acting, good plot twists, a wave of emotions Cons: Slightly longer than it needed to be
This movie runs the gamut of feelings. From happy to sad to hilarious. It takes your emotions on a roller coaster ride unlike any movie I've seen before. If you're expecting a riotous movie simply because Robin Williams is in it, think again. It does...

Pros: Sad, funny, a great movie. Cons: Too naughty to be PG, too clean to be PG-13.
I saw this movie with friends because it looked cute, but it looked very "kidsy", so I went into the theater doubtfully. Another friends didn't go for the same reason I was doubtful.
If you're thinking about not seeing it because it looks...

Pros: Wonderful retelling of an old story Cons: Based on literary characters whose presence is not mainstream
This movie is based on the Asimov short story "The Positronic Man," which at first had me worried, as all such things do (Lawnmower Man, Johnny Mnemonic, etc). However, from the very beginning of the movie it was as being immersed in one of...

Pros: touching, believable, science fiction Cons: gets the Three Laws of Robotics wrong
Bicentennial Man is based on the Isaac Asimov robot story of the same name. The movie also credits the book on positronic robots by Asimov and Robert Silverberg. Very few science fiction stories have survived the transition to movies, but this one...

Pros: Robin as Robot Cons: Robin as man.
I'm usually a Robin Williams fan and a sci-fi fan. This movie sounded as if it had all the potential one could ask for. The theme, the actors, etc. However, the first half with Robin as robot was much better than the last half while he tried to become...

Pros: Good plot, Robin Williams is fantastic Cons: Very long
I took my little cousin to see bicentennial man because it sounded like it had a good plot and Robin Williams is always fantastic. The plot was very well done and very interesting. Also as usual Robin was stunning. However, many parts seemed very long...

Pros: refreshing love story with a twist over time Cons: 2.5 hours in length
Bicentennial Man is a great movie to go see to get away from all the holiday rush. This is a love story with a different twist from the norm. I went to the movie as my partner wanted to see it. My preferred method to watch movies is in the quiet...

Pros: Great Family Entertainment Cons: Can't think of any
My family likes to go to movies. We especially like Robin Williams films. This is one of the best of his endeavors. This is a light-hearted comedy/romance about an android, a family, and how they relate to one another.
Robin Williams plays...

Pros: awesome cast, warm story Cons: profanity
I loved this movie. I wanted to see the movie because Robin Williams was in it. I only wish I had seen it before I allowed my children, both boys 8 and 12, to see it. I had a problem with the language in this movie. I'm sorry but this is my opinion, the...

Pros: holds interest, very creative, family orientated Cons: take your hankie, it's a tear jerker!
I took my Special Education class of Middle School Students to see Bicentennial Man when it first came out. It is a very good family movie. It held the interest of ALL of my students for the entire time! Robin Williams was absolutely GREAT as the...

Pros: Neat movie Cons: read below
Robin williams is a robot that is made to be a part of the family. But in his mind he has to have a heart like a human. He is so cute in this movie. I do not get the point though. Does he want us to think about our years to come an having a robot for a...

Pros: Good acting, good story, wide range of appeal Cons: None
Robin Williams' much-anticipated new release, "Bicentennial Man" is a rare find in today's movie market. The viewer can actually enjoy a good, well-written story with entertainment value that just may sneak up and tug on the heartstrings as...

Pros: A very funny movie Cons: A sad movie
I went to see Bicenntenial man not to long ago and it was a very excellent movie for kids and adults. I thought that it was funny but sad! I will buy it as soon as it comes out on video. I reccomend it to people of any age. I think that anyone who...
