Louis S I didn’t realise how unpopular this movie was!It’s a masterpiece Emma Watson’s acting is spot on and the overall message is perfect! Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/23/24 Full Review Cork B The acting is ok. The premise, while interesting, has been done better with a lot of other big tech gone wrong films. But holy crap the character motivations are SOOO stupid... Hanks is the baddy that wants to spy on everyone and does so by announcing it (maybe this isn't SO blantently stupid in 2024... like how Idiocracy was a spoof until it wasn't). If you are gonna be evil, and least tell everyone you WON'T be evil. It works alot better that way. Boyega is the reluctant founder who hates what his work has become so he... uh, sulks at parties and hides in tunnels and makes the WORST character decisions... probably should have stuck to coding. Gillan is kinda a pointless side show about... something... working too much? Which has nothing to do with the plotline other than 'big company evil'. And Watson... ah Watson... the naive new employee that totally goes along with every 1984 thing the company wants to do until the last 15 minutes of the movie. Yikes. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/17/24 Full Review Dan B I liked it. It was different and a "could happen someday" feel to it. One never knows in the day and age of no privacy that we already have. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/07/24 Full Review Marlene A That's the first piece of stinky I've seen with Tom Hanks in it. I so regret the time I've spent watching this idiotic movie. It tries to make some point, but it doesn't, and the acting is not the best either. I wish I had seen the reviews before I wasted my time. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/31/24 Full Review Olivia B Like others have said, impressive cast lineup and you can tell they had potential for a great movie. Good theme and general concept but the acting was lackluster and it seemed a bit rushed, not enough build time for emotional investment. Bummer. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/28/24 Full Review David H This is a movie that gives you the feeling that it should have been much better than it is Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Read all reviews
