2). positive

The phrase is considered positive because it describes the movie's thesis as "elegant technology for the masses," and it is being praised as "surprisingly refreshing." This indicates a positive sentiment toward the movie's idea. The other option, negative, does not fit the context and overall tone of the statement.
