1. Rie Miyazawa improves Hiroyuki Sanada’s coiffure in The Twilight Samurai (SBS, Wednesday, 10pm), which looks at the social aspects of Japan’s class structure as well as the sword wrangling. 2. Will Smith cracks a witticism with Alan Tudyk in I, Robot (Prime, Friday, 8.30pm), a slick rendering of Isaac Asimov’s classic sci-fi story. 3. The slightly glamorous, talented and rich Charlize Theron (how hard is it to be her?) stars in The Italian Job (TEN, Saturday, 9.30pm), a remake of the 1969 classic starring Michael Caine, which did for Minis what Bill Clinton did for cigars. Nirvana (the band, not the state of no-mind) freaks should enjoy VIP Pass on SBS on 1 2 3 Saturday night on 10.10pm.
