No, this isn't the book., by ACC

...but grading a movie based on your preconceived notions gleaned from having seen only the trailer.. and not once, not twice, but three times giving it an 'F' seems rather idiotic. Perhaps this was due to a twitchy mouse-button finger as a result of the same sort of activity you compare Hollywood "CGI" to.
The movie is based on the central concept of the Asimov stories, the three laws of robotics.. and it'd be fairly difficult to imagine a movie about robots in this day and age that didn't use CG.
But I think I'll actually *see* it before forming an opinion.
