In my teenage years, I often watched movies such as Face, Se7en, The Game, and Titanic among many other high-concept stories. The plot didn’t really matter to me as long as it was set within an interesting concept. This is the reason why I still cannot understand the hype around Titanic, after all, it is just a love story set on a sinking ship.
Now that I’m older, I don’t appreciate high-concept films as much. I do appreciate a good story, and if a movie lacks a proper narrative, then why should I care to watch it? This brings me to Circle, a movie that had me questioning the concept behind it. But, in this instance, I feel as though it is nothing more than an average film.
And the biggest downfall is the world’s construction. With an overarching story it does not have and is not filled with cliches, it is just too easy to predict everything. You have the obvious cut of What am I doing here and there are hints of Let us attempt to finish the entire game, and finally, the moral Let’s eat all the pies that had to be said. Gay seems to be there in the hot topic, racism, and religion if it is any hot topic, consider it alive these days- It makes whispers in some of them, which is put on it as the movie takes more of a“neutral stance. Yes, those attempts are all in scream pure idiocy, because for some reason every time the television fades on the screen, the words consume my ears. And it is no longer thrilling to me, there is very little action I find amusing anymore. I remember deeply three or four of them.
Looking at them is in a similar bubble. No one if any of them really stands out. They’re competent on most. Except they all feel like the rest of those whose heads and shoulders carve ‘GARBAGE’ their faces That’s not even getting me started on watching Julie Banz in plays she has starred in, which is so devoid of the ability to stand out. Plus they seem to boast that they ensured that normal everyday people of all different creeds, and ages, cam, and do serve the purpose that in fact the people on television are paintings of real society.
For a short film, they did not do a poor job with the effects or setting, and the ending was truly remarkable really, given how the entire movie is, the ending was not something I could’ve expected.
So, that’s all there is to Circle. This film pertains to fans of high-concept entertainment and its underlying mystique of determining who will survive will be engaging throughout the movie, which is why it was smart to limit the runtime to under 90 minutes. If you need to fill time and are seeking something on Netflix, you could certainly do worse.
