Looses depth in favour of social justice education

Rating: 5/10 (9 April 2018)

I started to like this movie from the beginning, even though the colour scheme and style was a little bit "flashy", It played out its charm well and started to build up a good story. The hunt for these keys and the challenge to find them was an entertaining plot and excited me from the beginning. Also the mystery of who these characters actually where in real life kept me curious.
Sadly the movie lost all its inner structure and tension at some point. Character progression suddenly went through the roof and the intentions and feelings of the protagonists were not understandable any more. Everything was suddenly exposed and the movie lacked of all its actual content.
A problem of most modern, especially young generation movies. There is a feeling of disconnectedness to the audience in favour of transporting a social message, instead of letting us find the "key" for ourselves, we are "educated" to do so.
Therefore a feeling of tiredness and emptiness took over for me from the middle on.
From some point on the dialogues and characters where just not credible any more, the story too confusing and rushed, too many references to pop culture instead of staying true to the plot as an experience for itself.
The main antagonist Sorrento (besides the character I-R0k, whom I really enjoyed as that greedy anti-gamer) turned out more and more weak, kind of "transparent", for someone who is leading a worldwide company, not very satisfying nor credible - this took away all the danger - of course the "good" guys would win because this guy was just a fool (Putting his password beside his chair.) Yeah and of course everyone would help them in the end - because they are the good guys.
Where there is a steep and lonely climb to success in classic movie storytelling this felt not rewarding at all. I expected more from someone that brought us Indiana Jones, ET, co-worked in movies like Back to the Future.
Too much predictability in favour to bring about social justice education. Started out as a good movie with forgivable mistakes, but build up on the mistakes instead of staying true to the good things going a step further.
