Extremely meh. The 'world' wasn't that special/convincing and some of it just made no sense. Like that bit when bruce willises surrogate first got run over by that truck in the humans bit, and the gang was right there around him with their shotguns and crowbars. Then theres a cut and hes suddenly 5 minutes away ahead of them again with no explanation. eh? It was really jarring.

Another stuipd thing, maybe its just me being overly picky, but that big room full of robot heads watching the cameras.... why create robot heads with little cameras in them looking back and forth across loads of TFT's?? Just feed the video straight to the people who want to watch it. It makes no sense to build stupid little robot heads with little cameras in them to watch crappy quality screens.

It really jarred with me as having had no thought/substance put into it, it didnt have to have a reason to it it just had to look good, and that was the same for most of the film.
