I hate to say it, but Emma Watson is 0 for 2 this year. This was really bad. :\
I can't get over this. This bombed so hard that it made a million less than an Indian movie that opened in 1/7th the number of screens:
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
At times this made me feel really uncomfortable while still subtly taking hilarious jabs and Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon;' companies that feast on customers data. Lots of subtext around privacy and companies that pry too deep in employee's personal lives, wearable, consumables... Spouting lines like "All about the community" and when speaking about social media: "You kayak? ... but No smiles, no ratings no posts?"- The problem is no one in this movie is self aware.
No one sees how outrages the circle is. And maybe that's the point? This is the type of movie that will be dated in 20 years and everyone will look at it as a laughing stock.
