Not interested in even rating this one.
It's obvious intentions seem to come from a "good" place, but it's so poorly put together from script, to production, editing, and final file.
I made a short documentary similar to this, though focused much more on consumerism, when I was at university. And I had the decency (and requirement) to only have it be ten minutes long.
2073 is quite an annoying watch where the best elements are clips from other films…

Less than the sum of its parts, both in individual setpieces and overall, Dead Reckoning Part One's convoluted style, storytelling and themes, muddy its best bits in chaotic confusion felt narratively and visually.
Bursts of excitement and humour in a Rome car-chase can't erase the sad sense of familiarity, similarly felt in other scenes. But worst of all is the wasted potential in imaginative setups, such as the claustrophobic alleyway fight let down by disorientating cinematography, or the heavily-advertised mountaintop…
