With the best intentions becomes big consequences: the viewers get given this massive back story on the creation of this mechanical program known as "Surrogates" invented by Dr. Canter [James Cromwell] but many years later the world is a very different place Surrogates can go and live your life for you without you needing the house, basically you are linked into your Surrogate. There are some people that choose to live a normal life these are called "Dreads"/"Human Coalition" that our lead by Zaire Powell or better known to his followers as "The Prophet" [Ving Rhames,] but FBI Agent Geer [Bruce Willis] and his partner FBI Agent Peters [Radha Mitchell;] they investigate this homicide. [Yes this is one of those situations that is as much as I can say without giving too much of the storyline away.] 

The pacing of this 89 minutes film is slow and steady

Action: the viewers can see what these surrogate robotic bodies are capable of [depending on what model you pick up] as we can see in this film they can run faster and jump higher.

Character developments and performances: they are what they are; meaning solid versions of what they are meant to be on both counts.

This film receives: 4/10, this film is mixed; it is a solid film, but as I have already referenced is slow and steady. Don't get me wrong if there are any fans of Bruce Willis out there in Internet land, take a look at this film I just wouldn't expect too much.
