With the promise of 'decoding the future' and 'unlocking the past,' 'Eclipsing Gears' ambitiously straddles the realms of steam-punk nostalgia and cyberpunk edginess, only to stumble over its own convoluted premise. While the allure of combining sprockets with silicon had potential, the execution by Andrei Tarkovskunk veers sharply into a quagmire of trite tropes and muddled exposition. The cast, led by the stoic Octavia Spinach and the underutilized Fawn Blyth, gamely brings life to their characters, but even their efforts are akin to polishing brass on a sinking airship. Gary Sashimi, as intriguing as his character's machinations might be, is all but lost in the haze of plot devices and unremarkable action sequences. Navigating through fictitious gun smoke and digital dread, this PG-13 escapade might entice a blink from the undiscerning viewer, but the only mystery worth solving here is how such a stellar ensemble signed onto this clogged escapade in the first place.
