Kevin says Y2K kinda sucks!

Every generation has it all-night teen movie – from AMERICAN GRAFITTI and SIXTEEN CANDLES to CAN’T HARDLY WAIT and SUPERBAD. Now Millennial nostalgics are getting their chance with Y2K.

The story follows a high school misfit in 1999 attending a New Year’s Eve party where he hopes to finally kiss the girl of his dreams. However, when the Y2K bug executes at midnight and the machines start a violent revolt, the partying teens have to try and survive.

I’m all for the genre mix-up we get in this film, however, the movie fails to commit to either one.

The all-night party film half of the script just strings together a series of clichés. At least the sci-fi thriller element tries to be unique. However, aside from aping the goofy opening sequence of Stephen King’s coke-fueled fever dream MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE, the story ends up stumbling into that film’s own incoherence.

Even if you’re weepingly nostalgic for 90s music, AOL, and a quote-unquote “simpler” time before social media, the lack of story depth and likeable characters found me rooting for the killer robots.

Y2K gets two dial-up modems out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
