    One of the more subtle things that many miss: at the end, Portia gave Galatea an order to turn off her life support. This was a violation of the First and Second Laws of Robotics, and should not have been possible; but Galatea was able to evolve beyond her programming, just like Andrew did, hinting that she too had become human.

      I never knew that was her, is it very clear that that is her or is it an easy to miss thing because I watched this movie several times and I always just thought it was another nurse, she showed care and understanding of what she wanted her to do, so either she became sentient and respected what Andrew did with his life, or it was an advancement on her personality chip that just let her handle more complicated subjects that make grey areas in the 3 laws. Otherwise she wouldn't of quoted him. Googled it to verify and yea it says that is her, I just never seen the part that express's thats who the nurse is. But the quote again had to be that andrew was able to help her become sentient, I doubt he'd try for fake sentience.

      The first law was no harm to a human. But the second part of that rule is “or through inaction bring harm.” So technically Galatea wasn’t breaking the rules. Disobeying Portia’s order would have brought more harm than obeying it.

    oh, Nick- when i saw this movie come up i was like, oh man, Nick gonna be crushed watching this lol.
    I have a special story about this film, when it came out i was like 13 or 14, and i was really taken by this film. about a decade ago when i was studying art i met a fellow student who was born with progeria. you can look that up, but basically it's a disease where you age very quickly. She had a life expectancy 15 but she had told the doctor to get stuffed and she'd make it to her 21st thankyouverymuch. She passed away about a week before her 21st. She and her family are Buddhists, so no traditional funeral service but we had a massive lunch and shared memories of her instead of her birthday party she had planned. at the end of our time together, her mum handed out parcels my friend had arranged for us before her departure and mine contained Pokémon cards, an Avril Lavigne cd, and THIS MOVIE on dvd. When I sat down to rewatch it, I could see why it was one of her favorites, the themes of what makes one human- our time here short or long? or our connection to those around us and the most human of all experiences, death. Now my memories of this are tangled up with my fond memories for my friend, and I love how media has the ability to do that-
    Anyway, the little miss actress is also in a film called Paulie about a Parrot, which i also loved as a young person but i haven't had the guts to rewatch as an adult cos it made me cry so so much. So thats my recommendation for you! Glad to see you doing some lesser known movies and not just sequels :P

    For me, and maybe that's as it is meant to be, the part when Andrew asks the father (Sam Neil) for freedom, I think the father's reaction of kicking Andrew out kind of shows whether it was ever said, that the father had come to emotionally regard Andrew as his son...once removed. He probably would never have said so himself, but he "raised" Andrew himself, guiding his education, and encouraging his creative endeavors. Teaching Andrew to make clocks was rather an apprenticeship.
    Kicking Andrew out was the acknowledgement pf Andrew's adulthood, and pushing the baby out of the nest to he would fly

    It's an interesting point that I've thought about often. So many people fantasize about having a robot to do all the jobs they need to do around the house/that they find annoying but surely any such robot would be intelligent enough to be considered a sentient artificial person? And would not then owning this artificial person and putting it to work in a way that it has no say over constitute slavery?

What I like is that Robin Williams, who I generally never liked, tones down his normally purile humour to a nice gentle level that works when it's needed and it has just the right amount of sentimentality that the similar generation movie A.I. went too over the top with, but then again that was Stephen Spielberg so what do you expect?

    Robin Williams was a Genius, if you could react to "The birdcage" with Nathan Lane you'll end laughing until your tummy hurts.
    However, when it's about Robin Williams, it's difficult to portray him as a villain or a bad guy. But there are 2 movies (at least that I remember of) where Robin plays the role of an antagonist. "Insomnia" and "One hour photo".
    They are good films but they have "hard" content in it because they are like thriller movies.
    You're free to react to them or watch them on your own. But I think they are underrated as Robin is the "Bad guy/psychotic guy" and we're not used to see him in those roles. But he did an outstanding job as he always did.

    This is one of my favorite Robin Williams movies. Regrettably, it is completely overshadowed by the success of Mrs. Doubtfire (1993) and never got the praise it deserved for being such a poignant and philosophical movie. Maybe audiences were expecting the comedic Robin Williams rather than the dramatic expression that they got. I find it heady, thought-provoking and shows his depth and range as an actor.

    You know, it's quite interesting.
    To me, this movie is the perfect explanation for being trans. It's true that in the context of the film, there is only one robot like Andrew, but in reality there are many of us that are treated as we are not. People defining us by what they think we should be, rather than what we are.
    When Andrew's wife said; 'maybe he didn't (need to see it.)' In regards to the courts fully acknowledging him as human, it means that it really didn't matter to him that others see him as human, because he knew it himself. Just as we don't need others to define us, so long as we can define ourselves.
    It's still quite sad that we still need to fight for our very existence, because otherwise we will be trampled and erased like we have been for so long now.

    It’s been so long since I’ve seen this, but I’m really glad you became so invested in it! The beginning is certainly mild compared to the rest of the movie. 💔 I got pretty emotional myself watching this, it’s a very unique story. Bravo on the reaction!

    This film is stated as being a bad move to have been made; most references state that as if it's a fact.
    I wholeheartedly disagree; I've liked this film from the first time I watched it. So overlooked and underrated...

    I have been waiting for you to react to this movie, LOOOVED this reaction! I think you may also like "What dreams may come" starring Robin Williams. I think it's a really heartfelt movie as well not quite as good as Bicentennial Man though.

    Bicentennial Man is one of my fave Robin movies, along with Birdcage, Mrs. Doubtfire, and One Hour Photo.

    I’m glad he saw that part or Andrew had the “being human instead of a machine. Whenever I was little, a baby, in fact, I extubated myself twice. of course, I didn’t know what I was doing, but somewhere in my mind, I guess around the second excavation, I breathed on my own and lived. That is why. This has been, Ashleigh, a CZcams subscriber who is Blind. Thank you for sharing this video. I look forward to more, but keep my first comment in mind. to this very day, I will never live as a machine.

    Edit: When you were happy for him to be declared human I knew what a mess you were going to end up with. The part that he never gets to see/hear it kills me every time. Currently in tears

      Had either of these names lived, they’d still be doing films. 🙁
      While James Horner was set for the Avatar sequel with director James Cameron.
      Robin Williams had one proposed comedy-drama film paired with Jim Carrey in which the latter served as a comedic protégé in stand-up. There was no script and it was shelved when Williams passed.

    @Chrysop1812 Před 2 lety

    So glad you picked this! it's one of my favorites! Maybe my favorite of his...except "What Dreams May Come" is possibly and probably his best performance and that's saying a lot bc he's a terrific actor. I couldn't watch his work for years after he died, I'd just start crying as soon as I'd see him. I still remember the day he died it was the day before my birthday.... Bicentennial Man was the first movie I could bring myself to watch, and I hard cried all the way through. He's such a gift to us, and I don't think he appreciated him enough while he was still here. #YouShouldWatch What Dreams May Come

  • @viktornei
    @viktornei Před rokem +1

    I love this film so much. I adore Robin Williams' performance, but what isn't appreciated is Sam Neill's performance. His character Richard Martin never had a son, so when he saw Andrew's develompent, he saw this opportunity to have someone who can continue his legacy. When he's old, you can see that in his eyes when Andrew asked for freedom, that is, Grace (Miss) is now gone, Amanda (Little Miss) is gone, too.
    And when Andrew asked for freedom, you can see that Richard (Sir) was scared to lost his son figure, let alone, the robot, but he still educated him, he taught him a lot, he let him know what is the meaning of human nature and what it's like being free, and what is like being treated as an equal. You can see that he feels that he was wrong, but it's kinda clear what it is like being a father of three children, and each of them are going away one by one. He did not want to lose the only child he has left, which is Andrew, the only son he had. And you can see how bad he feels when being mean to Andrew. As you get older and as you have your own children, you see how much Richard suffers. Such a fantastic performance by Sam Neill, and it's a crime, he was never acknowledged by his acting.

  • @twist58
    @twist58 Před 2 lety +1

    Oh, boy. One notable thing about this film:
    Despite this Robin Williams comedy-drama film being so underrated back in 1999, it also set off friction between Williams and Disney with the former blaming the latter over poor marketing of this movie as to why this movie was a box office dud. This was much worst than the feud he had with them regarding Aladdin. While that feud only lasted about four years, this feud lasted ten years and not in good terms until 2009 when Williams was finally made a Disney Legend. At least they made amends before he passed away in 2014. 😌

    This movie gives me such existential dread but at the same time hope for the future as well. This is one of those lesser known robot movies, another sort of robot movie is “Batteries Not included” more of an alien robot movie like Iron Giant but it’s still really cute and I definitely reccomend it!

    I didn't remember why this was so sad, it's been a long time since I watched it... Now I remember why I only did so once, but it is a very good movie on so many levels. I just can't stand how sad it is though, especially since heshe's passed on, like you said......
    😭👏💔
    RIP the Great Robin Williams.... There will never be another quite like him. He was truly special, and I don't know if I will ever truly heal from the fact that he is no longer here to help us heal with his special kind of magic. Laughter is indeed the best medicine, but he was so much deeper than the hyper silly guy who could do a million voices and never seemed to run out of batteries..... Until, most unexpectedly, to the dismay of the entire World, in the Summer of 2014, in what should have been the Autumn of his life...he did. But he left us with a legacy that will never die, and I'm truly grateful for that. I hope I get to thank him, someday 😥💖
