Anyone else feel the movie suffered from a bit of "unfulfilled potential" in not really closing the full circle of its plot?

@thogek Hell yeah. It is as if some sequences were missing to connect well. But in my opinion it's still worth the effort to see it.

OTOH... it does kinda work if one thinks of it purely as a (partial?) prequel to _1984_. <br /> <br /> [spoiler]#SecretsAreLies. #FreedomIsSlavery. #TheCircleIsWatchingYou.[/spoiler]

Great cast, poor execution.

With genius lines like:
[spoiler]-Isn't it like, stored in the cloud?
-There's a physical copy **TOO**.[/spoiler]

@wintermute2517 Yeah, and we wonder why ppl start wondering how you still have internet, when theirs goes out (since the internet "went down") - I was literally asked once how I could do my work now, that THE INTERNET doesn't work (her internet had a 3 month long outage^^)...

With an absolutely killer cast, The Circle is let down by a totally unfulfilling plot and script that felt many times like it was scrabbling for direction or resolve. Like an episode of Black Mirror minus any of the depth or intrigue that comes with it.

Ehm, wtf

[spoiler] So to sum up the movie: Surveilance is great as long as the leaders are surveiled too?
That's the message at the end isn't it?
A big wtf!

Great idea, very apt for today, unfortunately it's a wasted potential. Emma Watson's character was extremely weakly written, this is a large problem as the film revolves around Watson's performance. To me the character had all the insight and complexity of a 12 year old, she being shepherded from one place to another by every other person in the film, I found it very hard to empathise with someone so out of control with their own life. However, I do believe that may have been the point, just not something I could identify with.

While the plotting is nonsensical, the concept behind the film isn't. In many ways this is Facebook or Google in a few short years. Do yourself a favour, put away your social media and stop being so transparent to people you barely know!

Watchable film, great actors, but the script needed work.

I can't help but think that this film would have been much better if Emma Watson and Karen Gillan had swapped roles, and if Tom Hanks had swapped roles with Bill Paxton, Oh and the obvious one, the whole thing was rewritten, and refilmed by somebody who knew what the hell they were doing LOL

**Everyone:** You aren't on Facebook or Instagram?! How do you keep in touch with people? Don't you want to know what or how they are doing? Or let them know what you are up to?
**Me:** No.

The only thing this movie is good for is prompting discussion. It raises a lot of interesting questions and presents a compelling "worst case scenario", but instead of properly exploring that, it seemingly embraces it. It's like the the writer failed to understand the moral of their own story.
