Bruce Willis vs. Surrogates
So I saw Surrogates at the Ohio tonight. The ticket cost $2. (I think that is the price for 12 and under, which I don't understand because it is PG-13.) Nevertheless, the ticket cost me $2, and I'd say that that was a fair price.
Anybody ever read Snow Crash? Well, the real world is the Metaverse, Avatars are robots which people control with EEG versions of the Matrix chairs, Rife's Raft is a group of dispersed compounds which rejects the surrogate-ed lifestyle, wherein people do organic gardening, macramé, and follow the Prophet, who might as well be an evil George Clinton, and also, Snow Crash is a brain-melting wave-gun. |
There is a kind of interesting/disorienting clip montage at the beginning that is supposed to news-reel one to the current situation. Then, somebody uses the wave-gun to kill someone, and so begins the mystery-conspiracy-steeplechase/letdown which is the rest of the movie. Bruce Willis is the same Bruce Willis from that Christmas movie that we all loved, although, it seems no one bothered to tell the writers that one-line jokes might be a good idea.
In the end, one wishes that beginning with such a premise would have brought this science fiction us elsewhere than (or, at least, by means of some sentiment other than that which might be found in WALL•E) a simple, Luddite fantasy world, but alas.

"Bruce Willis is the same Bruce Willis from that Christmas movie that we all loved"
When is Bruce Willis NOT that Bruce Willis?
Yippie kay yay, kid who sees dead people.
_J_ - When he's Hudson Hawk. Duh.
Caleb, I'm confused. On the one hand you sound.. dissapointed in it...
.. but you admit... there's Evil George Clinton... in a movie you paid two dollars to see.
That's like a hair below Buckaroo Banzai good.
Evil George Clinton lacks the pep and frolic of normal George Clinton. He's a pedantic, insane, and lackluster entertainer while evil.
Wait... so.. he's the Charisma Free mirror universe George CLOONEY, then...
Not Evil George Clinton who rolls partybusses deep, doin' nefarious deeds in a mighty diaper.
God, I HATE mirror universe George Clooney!
