I'M YOUR MAN
(a film review by Mark R. Leeper)

I'M YOUR MAN is a familiar story, the type that might even have been in Isaac Asimov's I, ROBOT collection. In fact, this is very like the "Twilight Zone" episode "The Lonely", in which a convict marooned on an asteroid is given a companion that is a robot. In I'M YOUR MAN, the recipient of a robot (actually an android) designed to be a perfect companion first resists accepting it to test for three weeks but finally gives in. This is the sort of thing that is often Hugo-worthy but hasn't a chance of being nominated, because it lacks special effects or big names.

Released 10/24/21 on Amazon Prime; available on various streaming services. Rating: high +1 (-4 to +4) or 6/10.
