7.50
With a name like 'Gazpacho' and a sidekick dubbed 'Sprint', 'Echoes of Tomorrow' could have easily tripped over its own cleverness, or worse, sprinted headfirst into a wall of clichés. Yet, under the quirky helm of Stephen Ferret, this action-adventure flick manages to be a spoonful of fun amidst the typically dreary post-apocalyptic genre soup. 'Gazpacho' Alba, played with a wink and a nod by the effortlessly charismatic lead, and 'Sprint' Sheat, whose thighs could give the very pillars of the lost civilizations a run for their money, provide a dynamic duo whose banter is as sharp as the booby traps they dodge. Professor 'Puzzle' Soybean Hoffman's riddles are just obtuse enough to keep the audience guessing without turning the plot into an unsolvable Rubik's cube. While the film sometimes stumbles over its own ambition, trying to be both a history lesson and a slapstick marathon, it ultimately crosses the finish line with enough breathless thrills and chuckles to be awarded a respectable 7.5 out of 10 on the critic's scorecard.
