This movie had nothing original or entertaining to offer in the genre. Only suitable for older youth (teens), due to violence and some disturbing concepts.

Wouldn't see it again
The reviews on this site aren't very accurate because they commonly overlook the extensive sex in the majority of the films I've seen. I rented Pride and Glory and there was a topless woman running down the stairs that was not even mentioned in the movie rating or in the review on this site. It was not a quick glance, either. Another example is shown in the movie Surrogates. A woman in a thong was shown (from the back, of course) for about 30 seconds laying in a bed and walking around. I have also seen several movies with very graphic same sex scenes that were not mentioned in the review. For the people on here doing the reviews: If you are going to review the movie for parents to make informed decisions, please do it right.

great yet violent
this was a good movie for the age appropriate audience. the futuristic idea of living life through a robot is fun and controversal. positive messages are sent to the audience when the main character must chose to spare or destroy all the robots in order to restore mankind. the people in the movie who dont use the surrogates are prety violent and rude. overall if you like bruce willis you'll like this movie. all his movies are about the same; rarely sexual content, lots of action and fast paced car chases and an awesome story line :)

interesting movie
I loved the plot of this movie I thought it was very good very interesting. It's worth seeing and I would even watch it a second time. I did think it was violent in some thing but mostly action. There were some sexual scenes we could have done without I mean considering these people could make their surrogates look like whatever they want and do whatever they want them to do it could have gotten way more out of hand so it wasn't too bad. This movie is a thriller one you have to piece things together and try and figure it out so if you like those kinds of movies you'll like this.

Robot Movie Over Done-Violent and Disturbing
Destruction of Surrogates kills many people and substantial amount of blood is shown. It shows a more futuristic view of how sexual feeling are produced. It pushes a PG-13 rating to the border, and in my eyes, should have been rated R.

Simply Put: Disapointing.
I was quite disapointed in this sci-fi flick. The action wasn't bad, but some of it was disturbing. Bruce Willis wasn't as witty as usual. Bummer. PARENTS: There is some sex stuff and graphic violence for a PG-13. Thanks for reading - Movie Man.

this move is a great cure for insomnia
this movie was a snore fest i kept thinking it was going to get better but it never did. total waste of 2 hours of my life. there is some gore so you might want to leave the youngster at home. older teen probably are ok. this move is a great cure for insomnia

Good sci-fi thriller, fantastic plot though
Has good and bad role models, some are neutral. Good message overall. Great sci-fi thriller, but I wasn't too thrilled since I hadn't had much sleep at the time when I saw it. Definitely quite a bit of violence. Again, I think this movie would have been better without swearing, no matter how infrequent it is.
