It seems that in the year 2045 nothing of interested had been created in the last couple of decades, so everybody still clings to the creative output of the late-20th-century. If you take away all the self-indulgent references to 80s pop culture, you end up with a really disappointing shell of a movie.

Apparantly this movie has been created solely to pander to nerds and gamers, and judging by the box pffice numbers it looks like it worked. Yeah, I liked "Back to the Future" and all that too, but if you spoon-feed me those references over and over again, it starts to feel like you're trying way too hard to push those nostalgic buttons. "Hey, here's something you know and love, isn't that cool?" - sure, but not if that seems to be the only reason this movie exists.
