Reviews
While '2050' offers a fresh take on the well-trod territory of AI and transhumanism, the execution falls short of its ambitious premise. Critics have pointed out the film's heavy-handed moralizing and lackluster character development. Shallow dialogues and uneven performances leave viewers craving a more engaging narrative. Despite Dean Cain's earnest effort, the predictable plot and mediocre special effects leave much to be desired. Rotten Tomatoes gives '2050' a disappointing rating of 14%. IMDb users rate it as 3.9/10, reflecting the general consensus that '2050' fails to live up to its potential. Metacritic summarizes the film as a missed opportunity in the sci-fi genre.
