This premise had a lot of potential. I wanted to like the movie, but was really disappointed in the end. It was unfocused, the worldbuilding felt inconsistent and the different parts didn't seem connected. A futuristic Berlin skyline, retro interiors, contemporary cars, and buildings didn't fit together in this context. The acting by the three main protagonists was alright and had many good parts, but was hampered by a rather bad, uninteresting plot which included some dull dialogs. It sometimes just felt randomly diced together. It wasn't a terrible movie, but it was just too flawed to be enjoyable.

'Mute' is a beautiful disjointed mess, especially in tone. Netflix movies are like airplane food when it come to cinema. I'm disappointed. I know it's been rough for Duncan Jones in the last couple of years with his wife (Rodene Ronquillo) diagnosed with cancer and the passing of his father (David Bowie), and now this. It's incredibly sad that Duncan passion project couldn't live up to his vision. The ideas were there, but nothing panned out. I still look forward for what he makes in the future and hoping things work out for him. Needs more Sam Rockwell thou.

Well that was a mess. I’m just confused about how they managed to make the story of a mute person (which was told beautifully in The Shape Of Water) so uninspiring, underwhelming and dull. The film takes more time developing out its side characters than Alexander Skarsgård’s Leo who gives shoved into the messy incoherent story which has Paul Rudd and Justin Theroux in the centre of it (who really make the film watchable). Alexander Skarsgård’s Leo also felt unengaging and was lacking an emotional punch, possibly due to the underdevelopment of his character. The film is a bundle of missed opportunities and maybe the film would have better suited to have its world being more fleshed out, similar to Netflix’s Altered Carbon, than rushing it’s way through intriguing ideas.

"...Oh this is like _Blade Runner_ but _Blade Runner_ was better so that means this is bad".

_Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go_.
