Good job Emma has an education because acting is not for her. Tom! what can I say, it seems your gonna be like most of the other older actors & grab as much money as you can no matter what & that's a shame. Oh well.
Awful. Don't waste your money or time.
Seeing this film (The Circle) before I checked out the reviews was a mistake because if I had known it was a clonker I would have waited for the film to come out on my streaming box. Hanks and Watson could not save this film or script. Just a boring film all around. I give it two stars.
Hard to follow. Bad ending.
Emma Watson was a bore, as usual. Clunky writing, bad ending. Dragged on for 2 hrs. Tom Hanks has lost his touch. Maybe should have been a tv series.
The movie is highly relevant in that it is about the effects of pervasive technology. Social media is pervasive in our lives. The issue is how far we will permit it to define us. The Circle sets up the issue well but soon dissolves into a flabby mess. I very much like that the issue is not set up as one of black hats and white hats. the corporate officers are not shown as evil manipulators but as reasonable people who really want to be of benefit to society. The movie was just too short of explore all of the issues. it would have been better if it could have been a cable series with multiple episodes
I love Mr Tom Hanks in just about any movie, however this movie just doesn't have the pay out for your time invested. The ending is sorely lacking.
Pretty boring for a Tom Hanks movie! Very disappointed!
Definitely not one of Tom's best. Lame. Totally missed the mark. You can do better Tom. Better luck next time.
a cautionnary tale
