- TriviaThe car used by Will Smith's character is a concept car called Audi RSQ, which was designed exclusively for the film and includes special features suggested by director Alex Proyas.
- GoofsWhen Spooner is fighting off the NS-5s while Calvin attempts to gain access to V.I.K.I.'s positronic brain, Spooner drops a large gun with a shoulder strap which then appears to spontaneously attach itself around a large guide wire. The gun-strap actually swings over and snags onto the guns clip. If you slow down the shot you can see it easier. Its also explains why the straps length is shortened by half.
- Quotes
Detective Del Spooner: Human beings have dreams. Even dogs have dreams, but not you, you are just a machine. An imitation of life. Can a robot write a symphony? Can a robot turn a... canvas into a beautiful masterpiece?
Sonny: Can *you*?

A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Featured review
I must say I had more expectations about the movie. But I think with the thought it had been made for the big public a very good movie.
I'm more a fan of the Caliban series. What I really missed were the switching views on the three main role players. Del Spooner, Susan Calvin and Sonny. Now it's all by the view of Del Spooner. Witch makes it a A to B movie witch it shouldn't be. How they can make it a better second movie is to make it a psychological detective movie with twisting story line. I think thats more important than action like we have seen in this one. And as base thought, how to survive a evolution you can't stop and how do robot's thinks different from humans or not.
