Surrogates

Typically I enjoy Bruce Willis movies.  He's got a lot of humor and charisma, and he's still quite the action star.  So I was expecting good things from his last picture, "Surrogates".  It's takes place in the not-too-distant future, where people live in a virtual world, living vicariously through their robot surrogates.  In fact, they're so hooked on the virtual experience that they really even go outside anymore.  In the middle of all this, a series of murders occurs.  Willis is a cop who is tasked with figuring out who done it.

And the verdict is - despite what could have been an interesting premise, what a disappointing, stupid movie.  I couldn't even suspend disbelief.  It's just chock full of stupid scenarios, not to mention bad science.  It's not even worth continuing to talk about.  I definitely recommend passing on this one.

  1. Yeah, didn't look like it'd amount to much for me. I'm glad I passed on it too.
