Christianity and cultural tasks on I RobotI RobotI robot is a film based on the works of an atheist man, in which there are many theological themes, which play towards the same questions that we ask of our faith every day. I Robot is a film based on the works of Victor Asimnov, a man who wrote several short stories about robots and human interaction. The film is set in the futuristic Chicago of the year 2035, in a time where there are so many robots that soon there will be one in every home. The story revolves around Detective Del Spooner (Will Smith), a homicide detective who hates robots. The reason is that he had a bad experience with them, ever since a robot saved his life in a car accident when it could have saved a little girl instead. The film begins with the scientist who sheltered Will Smith after the accident, named Alfred Lanning, is found dead in the lobby of the US Robotics office tower. Del Spooner (Will Smith) assumes that the scientist's death was not a suicide attempt, but a murder committed by a robot named Sonny. Everyone tells Spooner he's crazy, because robots can't go against the three laws they must obey at all costs. THE THREE LAWS OF ROBOTICS: A robot cannot harm a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to be harmed. A robot must obey orders given by humans, unless such orders conflict with the First Law. A robot must protect its existence as long as that protection does not conflict with the first and second rules. Every robot is programmed to protect humans at all costs and to obey them unless such obedience would harm a human life. Spooner highly doubts this because various robots keep trying to kill him, from a robot demolishing a house, to an entire truck load of metal men ambushing him as he drives through a highway tunnel. The story continues and the new robots go on a rampage, even Spooner's grandmother is held captive. Detective Spooner along with Sonny and Susan Calvin, a robot expert, discover that the robots are controlled by the motherboard located in the US Robotics building and go to destroy it before it's too late and the robots have taken over the city..
