Though it sports a slick look and feel, Surrogates fails to capitalize on a promising premise, relying instead on mindless action and a poor script.

Every sci-fi and action flick clich is crammed in here and Mostow couldn't give a damn if you've seen them all before. He might not do them better, but he'll do them well enough. September 28, 2009 | Rating: C | Full Review…

Whatever the reason, Surrogates was shielded from the eyes of critics before its opening, and that's a shame. Because, whatever its flaws, it is a good movie. September 27, 2009 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

If the whole point of this surrogate society is to appear as a perfectly beautiful avatar, why would Bruce Willis choose that ludicrous blond wig that looks like he plucked it off a mannequin at Boscov's? September 27, 2009 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

Surrogates is entertaining and ingenious, but it settles too soon for formula. September 27, 2009 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

The premise for this sci-fi actioner makes sense for about four seconds, after which you begin to wonder why everyone on the planet would willingly become a shut-in, how the poor are supposed to shell out for these high-tech androids, etc. September 27, 2009 | Full Review…

Requires the letting go of logic and a certain surrendering to the wonder of technological potential in the world. September 24, 2020 | Rating: 2.0/4.0 | Full Review…

Somewhere in the super-boring part, they add a cliché twist to the already cliché plot, and if you give it even a tiny bit of thought, an ending you can spot within the first 15 minutes. I walked out entirely disappointed. March 9, 2019 | Full Review…

Sleek and shiny but ultimately lifeless, an interesting premise becomes terribly humdrum in this sci-fi thriller. There's nothing to offend, but little of note either. September 8, 2017 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Ultimately, Surrogates isn't going to break any records, but it's the kind of movie I'd stop at while channel surfing and watch the whole thing on a Saturday afternoon. July 21, 2012 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

Underneath its typical Hollywood exterior there is a decent movie waiting to shine through. But so much else is just typical of the genre, it's hard to summon any more enjoyment from it. March 30, 2011 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…
