Funny thing about that movie. The movie is based on a spec script called Hardwired, and it originally had no connection to I, Robot. Also, the writer of that script wrote the screenplay for a cancelled film adaptation of Foundation.

Well the movie actually iterates on a series of the ideas from Asimov's stories so I wouldn't call it bad. Basically it's about VIKI coming up with the Zero Law.
