Honestly, this film to me was a refreshing thriller with some cool ideas and a cast that is able to create the correct atmosphere for this type of genre. This film centers on Alice (Florence Pugh) as her world slowly swirls around her, wreaking havoc and despair. Supposedly set in the 50s, you are immersed with a world of color and excitement, at least that's what it seems like.
Along with Florence Pugh, the ensemble includes Harry Styles, Olivia Wilde (who also directed the film), Chris Pine, Nick Kroll and more, who fit like puzzle pieces to the plot. Chris Pine's performance in particular caught my attention, portraying a cult leader so to speak.
I'm not sure original is the word I would use to describe this film. I feel like we've heard or seen this concept before. And yet it does touch some ground on our coexistence with technology and where it is headed, bringing this film to the sci-fi genre as well.
I would give this a shot. For thriller goers like me, you'll undoubtedly have a blast watching this film. The performances and suspense carry the plot on their shoulders, with a run time of a little over two hours, this is a fun experience.
