Surrogates

I finally got round to watching Surrogates to find that BBSpot's review of the trailer got it right: "Ending Prognostication: Willis finds a way to bring down the evil conspiracy behind the surrogate society. At the end, people will slowly emerge from their homes and shade their eyes from the sun." There again, that doesn't show great premonitory powers, since if you know it's a film about people living their lives through robot surrogates, it's pretty much inevitable that it will end like that. Maybe one of these days someone will make a film involving humans living alternate lives via robots or a virtual world and it won't automatically be a Bad Thing. Maybe they've already done it, but if so, I guess it was some low-budget cult film that certainly didn't star Bruce Willis.
