Escape 2120

Just when the current year couldn't get any worse, there is this.

Apparently this was based on a book that was probably a pretty decent story but unfortunately it was not transferred to the screen. The acting is horrendous. It is so bad at points it completely takes one out of the story. Given the gaping plot holes and things that are simply never explained I can only assume entire chapters must have been skipped. As it is, it makes no sense at all. Sad to see someone else's creative vision reduced to a bad high school play.

Like the rest of 2020, this has become a mess of gigantic proportions

it had potential, but lost track of where it was going - and with a cast that has little to no spark on screen, lousy effects, poor development, lost story, boring props and no sountrack to blend in to make this any more interesting...this just drags on far too long

if the timing was cut and it even had remotely interesting dialog and some thought given about advancements in the future, this could have been interesting - instead it was a bore which dragged on longer than it needed to be - and with the lack of budget to sustain anything that was needed, the basic design of the story made it a total drag to sit through

I wasn't looking for the next Star Trek or Star Wars, but when the poster is more impressive than the film, then there's a serious problem

hopefully your next effort is more entertaining, more thought put into it - and a bigger budget with stuff that makes it interesting

for a future world, this is less interesting than the stone age - and for all the advacements of travel, they have next to nothing for living - less than a jail cell

and that is where it all falls apart...more than the tiring story

"Escape 2120" tells the tale of Dave, a young man who had lost his parents, and was looking to escape his life. He wins a competition with his prize of helping two scientists with their experiment in time travel.

The story has great ideas, in both who to travel through time, and what the world would be like in the distant future.

Unfortunately, the movie was very slow moving, with a number of the concepts, not very well explained.

Too much time was spent on dialogue, and not enough on exploring the world of the future.

I did like the Doc - who seemed to be a cross between Doc Brown (Back to the Future) and Max Headroom.

With a bigger budget, this movie would have had the potential to be very impressive and entertaining.

I did watch this movie till the end, but it was a struggle.

I have three words for this movie: Terr-i-ble. It may have had a great story but I couldn't follow it. The acting; the acting. I normally would disregard bad acting if the story was intriguing. But I didn't pay great attention and wasn't worth it. Played in the background while I looked at stories on my phone 📱.
