Surrogates

Robots. Another movie about robots and how people think robots are so great and then discover that maybe they’re not. Anyone else yawning yet? What’s worse, it stars Bruce Willis, so the directors felt they needed to turn the movie into a robot-mystery-action film. Perhaps one too many genres, no?

The premise is that robots are used as “surrogates” for humans to live their lives through, which is pretty depressing if you ask me. I mean, how long can you spend on the couch before you become the couch? But it all goes sour when a human is murdered and it looks like the robots could be turning on humanity. Weak, lame, boring. Should I go on?

Rating: 1 outta 5.
