fun fast and loose
3 stars
Action thriller with capable light sci-fi themes of shadowy secrets, persuasive control, and corporate surveillance. The linguistic and marketing angles were weak to my cynical experience and central holes in what matters, I probably would have loved this when I was 20. There's a reasonable comparison to Vita Nostra here that puts this as the brash and somewhat flat American branch of the org that's a bit stuck in their 1950s categories and also wants to be a legible action movie?
