Futuresport has very strong resemblance with Rollerball about fiction sport game and a little of Robot Jox. Nevertheless, a movie comes to own individuality in watching.
It takes set in 2025 in which two big unification of countries in North American Alliance and Pan-Pacific Commonwealth exist and stay on the edge of conflict over Hawaii. And there is also a terrorist group Hawaiian Liberation Organization which commits cruel acts for freedom of these islands. Obike Fixx creates Futuresport for prevent crimes on the streets in his wish. It becomes the most popular game on a planet.
Well, nothing near of that is happened. First at all, who will conduct world championship in New Orleans?! However, the world has of futurism but it’s identical to reality (I think, that can refer to film’s TV budget.). Poverty which in Futuresport, can see on the streets of cities under administration of the Democrats. But it is a past thing when people with no access to TV set watch on screens of shop’s showcase as it does in film. No mistake with that sets are flat. They a slightly thick and look beautiful by that whereas ugliness has in actuality.
We are not surrounded of plethora screens in big cities in which show commercials and broadcasting of important news as it usually imagines in flicks about future.
There are also transparent screens in 1998 film which use for phone calls and getting video-messages. If first didn’t implement in reality while communication options present but they’re not popular thing as it does protagonist Treymayne Ramzey who made wealth on Futuresport and lives in AI house in which he says to computer commands from any place and being informed on messages from phone and who approaches to his home. He decides who can get access to his place. Technically, everything that is possible but this isn’t in practice.
Almost same about hoverboard which uses in games of Futuresport. It’s in development from many companies and individuals and has some advances but it is not perfect as can see in the flick and any other science-fiction compositions.
Other technologies of Futuresport demonstrate possibility for realization while don’t exist: a revolver which bullets make a big explosion, a frisbee thing using as bomb in action, a spider-bot for surveillance. I don’t see people who decided to put metal somewhere in face but I’m sure they exist.
It would be comfortable for cinematographer by having that he or she can put camera as device by attaching to one eye and they can zoom thoughtfully. Elon Musk does something alike in mind control by opening Neuralink in 2016 but we still have television cinematographers with a big equipment on shoulder.
A main hero, who is a famous person, has a rating system which determines his social status which regulates on his acts. Losing of one game caused him to a big downfall in reputation. His girlfriend (a tasteless woman because she is a blondie and has a short hair.) says that marry him will bring to fall of her rating. It will good for lead hero who will meet his ex in embodiment of Vanessa Williams.
Ramzey was wrapped in alike of polyethylene and situates under lights what can accept for recovery treatment after he was hit by explosion of frisbee by which he also lost conscience.
Would I choose reality of Futuresport instead what I have? Certainly, yes. Just because it has adequate TV sets!
