OK, here's a 4 from me ...

... that's a "3" for the general idea of "having a Surrogate" and an extra "1" for casting Bruce. The movie itself, however, gets 0 points from me. It's got no heart and no soul, it's disturbingly two-dimensional and pointless, even... Full review

This is not the worst movie I see from a decline movie star movie...It does not appear to be a movie which Bruce Willis footed the bill from one of his block buster hits...Good movie on DVD...... Full review

A intense sci-fi story with tons of action, mystery, and suspense. Fair, yet many of these kind of movies are ALL about the special effects. Give us something more to be amazed by.....but keep that suspense and taut storyline that I... Full review

Enjoyed it. Thought prevoking due to our obcession with on-line avatars and sims. A few plot twists. Definitely better than Gamer, but very similar tech. I would recommend it to a sci-fi fan.... Full review

This movie had so much potential...just like I, Robot. The difference with this movie is that it did not deliver. Bruce Willis was awesome, however, the movie was weak.... Full review
Not a "B" Movie, but a "B+" Movie

This one was a little better than a "B" Sci-Fi Movie, so I give it a "B+" Now if your lookin' for a great Bruce Willis movie, remember, he's gettin' a little long in the tooth! However, I was entertained throughout... Full review

Not a bad movie, but not great either. It's one of those movies you would discover while clicking channels on cable late at night and there's nothing else on. Very interesting idea for a movie though.... Full review
Don't even send your surrogate to this tripe!

I like Bruce Willis. I know he's not the best actor in Hollywood and this movie has a definite B grade feel, but Bruce Willis does his damnedest to lift this turd out of the punch bowl. Give up Bruce, it... Full review
Surrogates: Passable Sci-fi

Ronnie - yahoo.com
It does not have much action as "I, Robot"; it is not as sentimental as "A.I."; it is not violent as "Blade Runner"or "The Matrix"; and it is has no funny scenes as "Bicentennial Man" yet it is a passable sci-fi... Full review
I UNDERSTOOD WHAT THE MOVIE WAS SAYING.

Eekee brid or rabbit - yahoo.com
THE STORY WAS VERY WELL UNDERSTOOD. I GUESS WE HUMANS WILL BECOME VERY LAZY IN THE FUTURE. BUT THE ACTING WAS VERY BAD EVEN AS THE ROBOTS OR JUST THE ACTAUL HUMAN. I JUST DID NOT LIKE IT TO MUCH.... Full review

The movie also has a fairly strong supporting cast which includes James Cromwell, Radha Mitchell and Ving Rhames.....But Jonathan's flimsy narration seems to have failed in handling the elegance of its overall conceit.....Especially, the chase scene that involves a helicopter crash is really marvelous.....Meanwhile, it also focuses on telling an exciting science fiction crime tale.....Bruce Willis, who is a versatile actor, has given a credible performance as FBI agent Tom Greer..... ...
