Surrogates (PG-13) 6.3

IMDB says about Surrogates: Set in a futuristic world where humans live in isolation and interact through surrogate robots, a cop (Willis) is forced to leave his home for the first time in years in order to investigate the murders of others' surrogates.

Director: Jonathan Mostow
Stars: Bruce Willis, Radha Mitchell and Ving Rhames

Somewhat original storyline about people living through robots (I've read several short stories with similar themes) where the tension is between the guy who originally developed the robots and current company that monopolized the use of them. Of course, the feel-good ending is the "humanity" wins. :-)
