This friday sees the release Bruce Willis's latest action blockbuster Surrogates. For those who don't know, Surrogates is a science fiction set in the near future, humans no longer venture outside of their own homes but instead communicate with others through "surrogates", remotely controlled robotic bodies. The advantage being that damage done to the surrogate is not felt by the human controlling it, or is it...? When the genius creator of the surrogates is murdered FBI agent Greer (Willis) is forced to leave the safety of his own home to investigate the crime.
Rated PG-13 it will get a nationwide release of 2700 screens.
Here's a featurette for Surrogates, which takes a look at the idea of losing ones surrogate, and the implications of going out in the real world
