“2177: The San Francisco Love Hacker Crimes” (*1/2 out of four) was an abysmal futuristic thriller set in 2177 San Francisco in which a man (Sean Patrick Flannery) wakes up with no memories of who he is after a murder attempt and is forced to take it on the run with his assassin (Barbi Okeefe) while his wife who is a cop (Dominique Swain) scrambles around to try to find him and sort out what is going on. Incoherent pastiche of “Total Recall”, “Blade Runner”, “Dark City”, and just about every other futuristic sci/fi movie you can think of. Jammed with cheesy CGI effects that make this feel more like a CD-ROM than an actual movie. At this point, the future just ain’t what it used to be.
