Looking for something fun at the theater this weekend? First decide what decade you’re living in, and then take your pick between the Bruce Willis future flick “Surrogates” and the 80′s-remake “Fame.” This weekend’s got it all, so it’s your choice.
In “Surrogates,” people of the future are able to plug into robots to do their wild living for them, all without having to leave the comfort of their own homes. Surrogates are beautiful, crazy creatures, but even if they harm each other, their attached people stay in tact– until now. Willis plays a cop out to solve the mystery of surrogates gone astray, without alarming anyone in the process.
“Fame” on the other hand– now here’s a story you already know: Kids with talent go to a magical and musical high school. Hey wait– that makes us start to think “High School Musical” was a real rip-off, and now we feel very cheated. But back to the movie debut at hand; if you liked the first one, and if you like singing and dancing in movies in general, you know what to expect with “Fame.”
The choice is yours this weekend: Relive the past, or step into the future?
