Clones! Computers! Surrogates!

surrogatesHave you ever looked around and thought the whole world was fake?

Well it is, at least if you’re Bruce Willis. Everyone is hooked up to a robot, called a surrogate, and lives life from the comfort of a home computer. It’s a great solution to the boring trawl of the life, except one day, someone gets whacked and dies online. Bruce Willis plays Agent Greer, a surrogate cop investigating the deaths. As he delves into a futuristic murder mystery, he starts to question the life he lives and pulls the plug, going AWOL in the process.

If you like Asimov-style science fiction, then this is your stop. Get off an explore a universe where technology threatens the very purpose of our existence.

Sounds like every ‘B’ grade cyberpunk story ever. Have we somehow ended up back in the ’90s by mistake? Not that that’s a totally bad thing, if I get to be younger & less fat.
