February 6, 2010Any film with Ving Rhames as a Rasta leader robot wins my vote. Fun effects, but truely the idea is a bit far fetched. I don't see how crime would drop when it seems easier than ever to comit them with super robots in peoples homes where they are pretty much sleeping constantly...( read more)

February 4, 20102009 is the year Hollywood became obsessed with living life outside of one's body. With Avatar, Gamer, and now Surrogates we get another taste of what life would be like if we could stay home and rot while a better, more perfect "us" were out living our lives. Th...( read more)

February 1, 2010Far flung premise overcomes some inherent conceptual problems by presenting a short, sturdy pace. Nice, subtle usage of CG effects on the surrogates. A clear companion piece to films like Avatar and Ghost in the Shell.

January 31, 2010Pretty decent Sci-Fi crime thriller about a world where everyone is sending robots out for chores, work and social life instead of going in person. Since the look of those can be picked as wished, the mystery of who is behind all those robots walking around, has a lot of potentia...( read more)

January 18, 2010Entertaining, suspenseful and wildly original. See it for yourself but leave your surrogate at home.

February 10, 2010The idea was good. The movie was interesting. It was not the best. I feel could have been written differently. But I still watched. I enjoyed the idea of it all.
God knows I love the internet. Image this. Wow! Wild. -

Give credit to filmmaker Jonathan Mostow for keeping the movie on track; give credit to star Bruce Willis for keeping a straight face. full review

Entertaining, suspenseful and wildly original. See it for yourself but leave your surrogate at home. full review

Liam Lacey, Globe and Mail
Do the actors sound so robotic because they are playing robots well or humans badly? And did a machine write this dialogue? If so, could we please apply for an upgrade? full review

Kyle Smith, New York Post
Surrogates nudges the robo-thriller in an interesting direction. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Despite bumpy execution likely to have detractors yelling "déjà boo," Surrogates oozes possibilities. full review

Surrogates stays afloat by not taking itself too seriously, but also by recognizing that a movie about robots shouldn't look as if it were made by one. full review

November 3, 2009I just had to watch it because of Bruce Willis :]
However the movie wasn' great, but it wasn't bad either. Good storyline, it was an eye opener.
I think the ending could have been a little more epic. -
