Good cinematography. Decent acting. Set and costumes stolen from Mad Men series. Engaging until you realize that this is the stupidest plot in history. Chris Pine has created a matrix-like simulation for incels and other dweeb males where in they can live a 1950s affluent lifestyle, complete with house, vintage cars, etc. In a remote desert town. There are a couple of hitches: first, their physical bodies are lying comatose while in the simulation so they must check out for 10 hours a day supposedly to work to support the whole deal. Second, to have a female companion in the simulation, they have to kidnap one IRL and keep her physical body restrained and comatose. While in the simulation, the females are somehow programmed to become compliant and submissive without a memory of their previous lives. We see a couple of glitches: empty egg shells, a random plane crash nearby. OK, now a couple of the females' programing is faulty. One attempts suicide. We never find out the result: she and hubby are disappeared. The other, after a series of flashbacks and hallucinations, has an epiphany. She kills her husband(?) and bolts. After an astoundingly stupid chase, she gets to the exit portal at which point the movie ends. Was this satire ? A commentary on male/female relationships? Who the hell knows? Devoid of characterization. Devoid of character motivation, except for one woman who stays because she lost her kids IRL. Devoid of resolution. BTW, the non-player background figures wear bright red suits.
