First Look At Bruce Willis' Robo-Wig
Is that Bruce Willis or his robot replacement on the set of the futuristic science fiction flick The Surrogates ? It should be impossible to tell according to the original graphic novel.

Bruce Willis plays a cop who is forced to leave his home after years of being a shut-in (which explains the 90s highlights) to investigate a rash of robot murders.

We rank them by speed (with a gallery) below.
