LX 2048 (2020)... i really liked lx 2048. in a kind of warts an’ all way. it’s hokey, too thematically ambitious, and bites off way more than it can chew. but i did laugh quite a bit in the last act when matey boy went mad. vr has taken over. our lead wants to live in the real world. there’s clones, more clones, and clones arguing with each other. james d’arcy was fantastic playing a frustrated husband and disgruntled employee. he threw himself into the role, and it was a real pleasure to watch him sink into the abyss. there are numerous plot holes however, teases at things which don’t then show up, and the films two halves are quite different from one another (which felt odd). i’d even go as far as to say the film is all over the place. but so what. like i said the last act is good fun, and the prior acts have enough in them to keep you interested
