this lumbering science-fiction thriller that's more pretentious than provocative; The concept must have sounded better on paper, but it's not compelling on screen, as rookie director Andrew Baird crafts some stylish set pieces with no coherent link
Guy Pearce's sci-fi is an uninteresting 'Blade Runner' rip-off; Offering no individuality of its own, "Zone 414" barely manages to stay afloat with its oft-repeated tropes, which come to a listless, foreseeable end
Guy Pearce brings some no-nonsense grounding to the absurdity, but the world-building is incoherent, the hard-boiled dialogue is overcooked, and the mystery plot is never compelling
a bargain-basement, or really sub-bargain-basement, clone of "Blade Runner", "Zone 414" is visually tacky and almost infinitely dull
Review rate : D-by Frank Scheck[One Guy's Opinion ]
"Zone 414" borrows liberally from "Blade Runner", "Ghost in the Shell", and "Westworld", without adding any new themes or interesting characters; This story has been told many times before, and much better
