SURROGATES (C-)

Starring: Bruce Willis, Radha Mitchell, Rosamund Pike, James Cromwell and Ving Rhames

Story: People are living their lives remotely from the safety of their own homes via robotic surrogates—sexy, physically perfect mechanical representations of themselves. It's an ideal world where crime, pain, fear and consequences don't exist. When the first murder in years jolts this utopia, FBI agent Greer discovers a vast conspiracy behind the surrogate phenomenon and must abandon his own surrogate, risking his life to unravel the mystery. (Touchstone Pictures)

Rated: PG-13

Bottom Line: Interesting ideas to chew on but this glossy, Hollywood package lacks depth, emotion and tension. It’s a ‘Tin-Man’ movie…shiny on the outside, empty on the inside.
