Bicentennial Man: The Robot Movie We Tried to Forget
The 1999 Robin Williams film Bicentennial Man is back in conversation, framed as a forgotten robot movie worth revisiting. The feature, based on Isaac Asimov's story, follows a robot who spends two centuries striving to become human. Commentary revisits why the film underperformed with critics and audiences despite its ambitious themes of identity and humanity, and why it is being reassessed now.
