Hopes were high for this 2009 adaptation of the popular sci-fi comic about an FBI agent investigating murders in a world where most of humanity hides behind remote-controlled robot avatars. The film shows moments of inspiration (we love how robots call humans “meat bags” and it gets bonus points for reuniting Willis and his “Pulp Fiction” costar Ving Rhames), but it also devolves into a bland sci-fi action flick after a while.
