Recently I saw the movie Surrogate starring Bruce Willis. Although the film appeared action pact from the previews-it was not. But the lack of action did not damper the film because the subject matter was thought provoking, and the pace was sufficient enough to repel boredom.The film is essentially about people who live their lives through their surrogates (robots), and one of those people, the son of the scientist who invented the surrogate technology, is murdered while connected to his surrogate by an assault on his surrogate with a weapon that got into the hands of an anti-surrogate group. Again as a thought provoking film, I wondered how many people would actually live their lives through their surrogate. I thought it was very interesting, but I wanted a little more action. I'll grade it a 78.
Some of the other films that I have seen recently include Inglorious Bastards, which was amazing, from the acting to the story line. What a flick! Lets see what else...Halloween II, which was well produced and well directed but the symbolism made it a little weird,but it did add depth to the film. Nine, very entertaining but I thought it was missing something. Whiteout with Kate Beckinsale-was not bad, but the preview was misleading because the mystery to be discovered was something so mundane. Well that's all, peace out homies!
