Keith B B @Okbullard Nov 23 I thought it was well done and really enjoyed the action and suspense. Bruce Willis was still 100% in this one. The make-up was amazing to make him look in his mid 30s. It's definitely worth the watch. See more thiago s @Thiagostone Jul 30 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Thomas S May 24 A thoughtful film with fine performances by Willis and Pike. Good fun, not overlong See more Alex V Mar 30 It’s been a while since i saw that movie, but it left quite an interesting impact on me, thus i would love to have such a thing in my life as a surrogate..Not of me though.. i would like to have my mom’s version of it.. i lost my recently and would love to see her in that shape, programmed the way she was when she was alive..i wish i had that much of $$$ to order such a robot to have her voice in it, her overall look and her face, behavior.. See more Ralph R Mar 3 Surrogates (2009) takes an interesting concept, people living through robotic avatars, and turns it into a straightforward action thriller. The plot is easy to follow, with a few twists along the way, but it never really digs deep into the bigger questions it could have explored. The movie has a polished look, and the visual effects for the surrogates are decent for the time, making them feel just artificial enough. The directing keeps the pacing tight, but the script doesn't do much beyond moving the story from one action scene to the next. There's a moment or two where it tries to be thought-provoking, but it doesn’t fully commit. Bruce Willis does what he always does, playing the tough, weary protagonist, but there’s not much character depth to work with. The supporting cast does fine, but nothing really stands out. Ving Rhames' presence adds some weight to the film, but the dialogue overall is just serviceable. The score is typical for an action thriller, doing its job without being memorable. The cinematography is solid, with some good action sequences, but it doesn’t do anything particularly unique. The movie is entertaining enough, but if you were hoping for something as layered as I, Robot, this one doesn’t quite reach that level. Still, it’s a decent watch if you're in the mood for a simple, action-driven sci-fi flick. See more Ryan C 02/16/2025 Good concept for a movie at the time. I actually enjoyed it at times, but I'm a sci-fi nerd. The problem is the plot just doesn't hold up. Maybe the movie should have taken place further in the future instead of literally looking like 2010 lol I mean, come on.. Sony had a hard enough time keeping up with the demand for the PS5 when it launched lol. They literally didn't have enough raw Earth materials to manufacture what they needed. Remember? But yet, the movie would like you to believe that over a billion people on the planet can have their own android (surrogate)? We only get a glimpse at the manufacturing process of surrogates, but they showed the company (VSI) was pumping them out like they were simply making bottled soda or bags of chips lol. Think about raw materials needed to make just ONE of these things, from the metal skeleton to the optics and processing units to the circuitry and wiring. Plus the surrogate chair and whole neural uplink thing to connect to it. And speaking of that connection between operator and surrogate, they never EVER explained that lol. We barely see people using cell phones in the movie, so what type of network is supporting the seamless wireless connection to the surrogate? 🤦‍♂️ So yea.. you see how the plot sucks? Lol. Cool concept, but totally unrealistic. Oh yea, they also NEVER mentioned what these things cost. A frickin' PSVR2 is steep enough at $600, but a billion people all over the world can afford their own android to live their perfect life? Yea, ok.. See more Read all reviews
