Bruce Willis is back on the big screen once again on this sci-fi action movie Surrogates. It was set in a future where humans just sit all the day from their homes and let the Surrogates robot interact on the outside world. Bruce Willis plays as a cop who investigate the murders of Surrogates which also kills their respective hosts.

The movie itself has a great story but in my opinion it was poorly executed which makes it good but not that unforgettable. The movie starts a bit slow and it was not that action pack so don’t expect too much of it. The Surrogates CGI effects is fair, not that great. It was set on the future but the only futuristic we’ve seen are the robots itself and nothing else, still feels like the present settings. The acting is also fair, maybe because they are Surrogates but when Willis was supposed to play as a human, I still feel like he was a robot despite of his visible wounds. I find Ving Rhames’ role and costume ridiculous. His beard was so obvious to be fake. The finale makes me wonder if what Willis did was a noble act or a selfish move. It’s up for the audience to decide. They could have extended a few minutes and show what happened after the Surrogates were wipe out and if Willis was lock on jail or not.

Overall, as what I’ve said great plot, poor execution but still entertaining enough. I think it won’t leave a mark on our brains just like Live Free or Die Hard. The concept was really great, imagine if that would really happen. You’re making out on a hot woman Surrogate without knowing that the host behind it was a fat guy. Nice.
