Surrogate Review by DC Tauntaun's Surrogate

DC's Surrogate here. He's busy lying on his back making me type these words..... It was just a matter of time before a film screamed loudly "get off technology and go be human again". The first 40 minutes were so wierd that I wished my Surrogate had been the one watching the movie. But luckily this sci-fi story with a message stopped being as stiff as the robots in the film and actually became interesting half way through. Sci-Fi fans may be able to get through this one just because of their love for the "unique" and the "wierd". Hold your breath at least past halfway so you can get to some parts that intrigue. Try and forget that it's trying to preach to you. That is obvious, and just let Bruce Willes teach you how to be human again. Compared to the other September films this one finally at least gave some bite towards the end. Luckily they released it in Septermber though because against the good films it would be left in the dust. And no, Yul Brynner never came around the corner as I was expecting.
