'The Thirteenth Floor' (1999) did it better.

'The Thirteenth Floor' (1999) did it better.

I quickly lost track of who, from which floor, is capable of what, and especially, what was their motive. Just sims trying to erase each other for no sensible reason. It would have made more sense to just say they were in a game from the get-go. This is just an action film with SF source code.

At 1:00 someone actually invoked god as the programmer of this Russian-nesting-doll universe. Thankfully that was the only religious reference.

Calling the simulations 'floors' is a direct reference to the movie 'The Thirteenth Floor' (1999), Not The Matrix.

Low budget, poor film quality, weak plot.
