"When elderly patients go to the emergency room, doctors are very uncomfortable about sending them home" right away, says Dr. Joseph W. Spooner of Care Level Management in Woodland Hills, Calif. "So they admit them, and patients stay three or four days." Then the sons and daughters are called in to quickly figure out what to do next...

It's a suave simulacrum that makes Sonny the film's most complex and human character--granted, by default--and sets him apart from the killer "can openers" in pursuit of Spooner. There's a nifty car chase, with the cop (in an Audi, its logo prominently displayed) set upon by a vicious android posse. Even if the scene is not up there with the 14-min. freeway free-for-all in the second Matrix movie, it's a smart, vigorous blend of live action...
