Critics Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle
Has a certain slow, mechanical quality.
Film.com
Captivating an audience from the get-go and drawing our attention and emotions ever deeper into the layered mysteries of a dreamy fable.

Users Reviews

Much like other Robin Williams films "Bicentennial Man" is compelling and an emotional masterpiece. This film deserves a high grade and is well underlooked.
What a great transformation of an Asimov story to film. Robin did a great job as the robot Andrew, and the supporting cast was wonderful.
