2177: THE SAN FRANCISCO LOVE HACKER CRIMES

Cinemavixion Review

Jose Figueroa's "2177: The San Francisco Love Hacker Crimes" presents a narrative that, while ambitious, struggles to coalesce into a satisfying whole. The film, released in 2019, features a cast including Sean Patrick Flanery, Dominique Swain, and the late John Heard, whose presence lends a certain gravitas. The plot, as described, involves a mysterious stranger and a successful intervention through proper data acquisition, leading to no harm. However, the external data suggests a more complex thriller involving amnesia, an attempted assassination, and a police officer wife's search, which seems to diverge from the local description's emphasis on resolution and lack of casualties. Despite the star power, the film's critical reception, as indicated by a low IMDb rating, suggests that its narrative execution may not fully captivate its audience. For viewers intrigued by sci-fi thrillers with a unique premise, "2177" offers a thought-provoking, albeit potentially uneven, cinematic experience.
