Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1.5/4 --
Watson and Hanks do their best, but the film lacks anything resembling dramatic tension, and ends on an almost laughably truncated climax

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)
The actors try to rise above the mediocre script... but to no avail, and the ending is too neatly wrapped up.

The Sun Daily (Malaysia)
Rating: 2/5 --
The Circle is eerily pertinent. If only it could have been a smarter, more vehement piece of social commentary, than perhaps it could have also seemed prescient.

It succeeds by showing restraint, however, just lacks something that would inject the emotional weight it required.

A misconstructed movie that falls under a 'Hanks failure' and nothing else. [Full review in Spanish].

[The Circle] is a suspenseless thriller that isn't nearly as smart as it wants us to think it is, featuring a talented cast that is given oddly little to actually do.

Product Description:

However, she soon learns that the corporation and its messianic founder (Tom Hanks) are hiding a nefarious agenda. John Boyega, Karen Gillan, Ellar Coltrane, Ellen Wong, Bill Paxton, Patton Oswalt, and Glenne Headly co-star. James Ponsoldt (THE SPECTACULAR NOW) directed this adaptation of Dave Eggers' novel of the same name.
