Accusations of being a sex perv aside, I think Leto is decent at playing a creepy weirdo, but that’s like the only character he can play. It’s probably at least in part because he likely is a creepy weirdo in real life.

I’m with you on some of the plot points not making any sense, and the movie does have a weird attitude towards artificial women. I would say I thought the scene where Ryan has sex with the prostitute bot and his hologram gf at the same time was thematically appropriate in that it was simultaneously sweet and sad, as is the whole movie.
