I cannot really label myself a sci fi aficionado in the sense that I do not go looking for sci fi movies. I generally prefer my sci fi as context, as opposed to focus of a movie. This movie surprised me because while it was sci fi, the sci fi simultaneously was context for discussion of the state of society, and how trying to fix society without obtaining buy in of society eminently can backfire. That the ending was somewhat dystopian seemingly was fitting because it was the choice of the people, as opposed to an imposition of say, a dictatorship.

The really bad thing about this film is the poor acting in parts. Lines are delivered as if from auto-cue, actors don't show emotion, and the interactions are wooden. Otherwise, it's pretty good! Great sets and visuals, good story, a few interesting characters, and well filmed. Had it been in French it might have been a lot better. If you are into sci-fi, it is worth watching as there are MANY other far worse sci-fi films around.

VIRTUAL REVOLUTION is a typical indie science fiction picture, long on computer effects-assisted visuals and short on plotting. The story is about a hunt for terrorists in a world augmented by virtual reality, but for the most part it seems an excuse for lots of low-rent fantasy shots and gratuitous violence and nudity in the GAME OF THRONES mould. The production values are a little better than in most indies.

So, this is a strange one. Those who compare it with Blade Runner are clueless simpletons. The concept is fantastic. In 2047 most people are connected and on universal basic income, no worries about real-life concerns. The execution, however, is poor and wastes an opportunity to make film history, no exaggeration here. Acting is generally ok, and actually it is good from the main and supporting roles. However, the screenwriting is severely lacking, and drags everything down. This movie should be structured around the dilemma of whether to free or not the connected people (possibly against their will), and, secondly, on the truth about the protagonist's wife. But we only get a couple of hasty minutes of these themes, and instead *a lot* of exposition on the protagonist's online quests (which I was skipping), which was worthless beyond some point. So much screen time was wasted. The culmination of the movie should undoubtedly be the hacking attempt of the megacorp HQs, but this was also hastily presented in a couple of minutes. .Such a wasted opportunity for an awesome film climax..! Still, 7/10 for the nice concept and the effort.

Movie Math: (Blade Runner 2049 + Ready Player One) Full Moon Features = 2047 Virtual Revolution I thought it was fun. It reminded me of one Charlie Bands old movies.

Writer/Director Guy-Roger Duvert Brings is the sci fi/ adventure 2047 : Virtual Revolution, starring Jane Badler and Mike Dupod premieres on VOD June 12 from Lidderdalei Productions. The year is 2047. 75% of the worlds population is living a virtual reality world. Escaping from the real world and nestled in there own private worlds if there Choice. Hooked up to virtual reality Games is not so far fetched. Mostly all the participants have checked out of the real world and exist only in there virtual worlds. Nash who is a private Investigator is considered a Hybrid. He lives in both reality and Virtual. He is hired to find out who is trying to hack the system and free the people from there virtual prisons. These same people are to be believed had killed his girlfriend. The deeper he gets involved the more twisted the story gets. Nothing is as it seems in the real world either. Nobody can be trusted and the people you trust are also harboring dark secrets. The story is so well done and is cross between Westworld and Blade Runner. The future world sets is bleak but brilliantly portrayed through miniatures and CGI. It is visually stunning! The movies best parts go to the Hacker that still lives in the real world. Morel ( Maximilien Poullien)is a great sidekick and true charm to watch. He genuine loyalty to Nash and his investigation really being some warmth to a cold cruel world. People are virtual zombies and live there lives in these worlds. While this is sci fi is it really exaggerated or is it showing what we are doing to ourselves. The movie is not preachy or warns you it is played out like a great sci fi epic and perfectly directed by Guy. When going into virtual worlds And real the fight choreography is as good as a samurai picture but more realistic. This is a fun rainy afternoon fun movie to watch. So hard to find good sci fi movies and this is on the top of my list! Starring Mike Dopud, Jane Badler, Maximilien Poullein, and Kaya Blocksage, Petra Silander Guy-Roger Duvert's stunning sci-fi thriller, the recipient of over 40 awards, including Best Film at the Los Angeles Independent Film Festival Awards and Best Feature at Dragon Con, makes its long-awaited premiere on VOD June 12.

Director must be so pround of music and sound effects... hard to understand dialog. The moving camera is stupid... when you talk to people do you move your eyes around? So annoying!

If you read a lot of sci-fi novels, maybe you've seen all this before, but I've never seen anything of this quality on the big screen yet. Most of the world lives in virtual reality and there are many groups that have an opinion (or agenda) about it. It illustrates many current points-of-view, from Government to Public, or Religious to Special interest group. Underneath all the cool sci-fi imagining going on, is a crime/detective plot about who's killing who. If you love sci-fi, I'm not sure you could ask for much more.

The theme and logic in the film is thought-provoking and beautiful, I love the thought-provoking films about the future
