Surr-ogates

"FBI agents (Bruce Willis and Radha Mitchell) investigate the mysterious murder of a college student linked to the man who helped create a high-tech surr-ogate phenomenon that allows people to purchase unflawed robotic versions of themselves - fit, good looking remotely controlled machines that ultimately assume their life roles - enabling people to experience life from the comfort and safety of their own homes. The murder spawns a quest for answers for who's real and who can you trust (Plot extracted from Movies Yahoo Singapore)."

It is a Sci-Fi futuristic movie and the plot is not great but okay to me. The idea is quite interesting as future mankind can have their surr-ogates to fulfill their social function. After watching the movie, I felt that despite the advanced technology we will be having in future, machines still can't compete with human brains because "humans create machines" (Movie Rating: 2.5/5).

I feel there is not much character development and Bruce Willis seems like doing another Die Hard sequel!

I think that is the only thing that Bruce Willis is able to deliver in the movie as the overall plot is just okay only. This is not a big film anyway..
