The primetime review praises Robert Pattinson’s performance as notably cold and detached in Lance Oppenheim’s latest film. Critics describe the cinematography as intentionally unsettling, creating a queasy visual experience. The film revisits themes from a controversial American television series that aired in the early 2000s. By referencing that series, the movie invites comparisons to its cultural impact. Pattinson’s icy demeanor is seen as a deliberate choice to mirror the series’ contentious reputation. The director’s sly approach adds layers of irony to the narrative. Overall, the review suggests the movie succeeds in provoking discussion about the original show.
