Based on Isaac Asimov's book, I, Robot is a new movie with Will Smith.

I have read Asimov since I was 9 years old, one of my favourite sci-fi writers.

The Three Laws according to the movie trailer. (shortened for impact!)

They cannot hurt us
they must do what we say
they can protect themselves

According to the book they are actually phrazed like these below (pay attention to no.3 as it is left out in the movie trailer):

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
