  • So-so

    Good, but not great.

    Overall, the movie had a great idea going, but just couldn't finish it. Parts of the movie had good twists, but the twists never played out, and neither did most of the plot. Something big and momentous would happen, but that was it, no real depth was given to it. Just the fact that something happened doesn't mean you'll learn any good detail to it. It mostly felt like thoughts about the plot were made, but not acted upon. I guess you were just left wanting a better explanation and more detail. Something definitely felt left out. I would say go see it, but try doing a matinee, because it's not a movie worth the full price of admission.

    A film created from a world imagined in a graphic novel by Robert Venditti and Brett Weldele

    Surrogate's setting is a world were no one leaves home anymore. People move via robots they control from their homes via robotic ?surrogates? which look like you or much better than you.
    The costumes and make-up are top rated as the actors portray the robots as well as themselves. A lack of special set designed hardly portray a futuristic world setting causing cinematography to suffer and lowering my rating of this film. Highly skilled actors but from my viewpoint the script was not demanding on their acting skills, what a waste.
    I would not deliberately watch this movie again.I gave the film a GO rating because the setting and the story which is not groundbreacking intrigued me.I think it is a wonderful science-fiction film from the point of the setting.A lack of the rest, leaves room for improvement, could have been much better.But it's smart and enjoyable, and the message is "go outside, nerds!," which is always nice to hear.

    Really Makes You Think About a Possible Future

    I loved the movie, I truly believe that it makes you think about all kinds of possible scenario's. Made me think about what happens when a surrogate is damaged or destroyed, who pays for repairs or replacement that is for a civilian and not a cop, or soldier, or FBI agent, etc. If something like that should ever be in our future, would everyone forced to have one, and if not would those choosing not to have to live in such horrible conditions. What about your sex, could you in fact choose to be a different sex than you are born. There are some similarities between this movie and "The Gamer"! It truly does blow your mind about the possibilities the military aspect, cops not getting shot down anymore. I really did love the movie, and anyone that is into action/sci-fi, or even just for the hell of it you gotta see it.
