For a moment you wonder, or hope, that this will be a film entirely shot in Second Life. Go to Full Review

"Life 2.0" would have been more interesting and original if it, like its subjects, had dwelled more in the virtual world, and if it had told us more about that world's mechanics and folkways. Go to Full Review
Nick Schager Village Voice 05/17/2011
At once a disturbing vision of escape, a cautious portrait of liberation, and an exploration of authenticity and artificiality, it's a documentary that trades not in absolutes but unsettling ambiguity. Go to Full Review
John Gholson Cinematical 02/10/2012
Life 2.0 cuts deep into its subject of with laser precision, getting right to the emotional heart of the matter, exploring a problem no one had to deal with even ten years ago, in a fascinating and very human way. Go to Full Review

07/27/2014 Life 2.0 doesn't explore all the territory of its subject matter, but nevertheless brings up many good points about the dangers of cybernetic worlds. See more 06/11/2014 Sad people living sad lives in a sad documentary. See more 05/23/2014 Weird and not really relevant to those of us who do not live in "virtual" worlds. See more 05/21/2014 A fascinating look at some really messed up people with problems dealing with the real world. See more 05/15/2014 Creepy as shit. It tries to demoralize gaming which is kind of stupid but a very well done documentary. See more 04/11/2014 a beautiful, intense documentary about how people free themselves, trap themselves, and create new selves online See more Read all reviews
