Reception

The film has a 47% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 30 reviews. [3] Rachael Harper of SciFiNow awarded the film four stars out of five. [4] Leslie Felperin of The Guardian awarded the film three stars out of five. [5] Grant Hermanns of Comingsoon.net rated the film a 5 out of 10. [6] Brian Shaer of Film Threat scored the film an 8 out of 10. [7]

Ed Fortune of Starburst gave the film a negative review and wrote, “It is partially saved by some amazing key moments and twist. Ultimately, though, it’s just too long and way too interested in its own cleverness.” [8]

G. Allen Johnson of the San Francisco Chronicle also gave the film a negative review and wrote, “I’m not sure how good a movie it is, but it would be an excellent basis for a streaming series, in which its ambitious ideas would have time to develop.” [2]

John Defore of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review and wrote, “While LX 2048 isn’t equally satisfying on all fronts, it’s more than successful enough to add to the where-are-we-going? syllabus.” [1]

Cary Darling of the Houston Chronicle also gave the film a positive review and wrote, “It’s always fun when a little film comes out of nowhere that has the ability to surprise.” [9]
