no one is tricked into getting surrogates. Everyone willinging does it because your are effectively "safe" to do what ever you want from teh comfort of your own home. The Matrix was about freeing people and their minds from the enslavement of the machines in a world they thought was real.

Everyone in Surrogates lives in the real world...they just don't leave their houses.

so it's like OKP...only with better dialogue, bruce willis, and robots.
