These two films deal with the boundaries between human and machine. In particular, the emotions conveyed between the two and across both borders. In essence the message is emotions know no bounds for these two films.
Both movies focus on human - robot relationship in a way that not only deals with love, friendship and tragedy but also with much more deep themes like what makes them different, what role one's appearance plays in determining one's identity, what makes a human human, and whether it is possible to create a bridge between two species through ignoring the externals and focusing on the inside, etc.
Also, Hal is a romance-oriented movie whereas Time of Eve deals much more with society vs individual issue.
Still, they are similar in the questions they raise, so if you like one, give the other a chance.
