Leave your thoughts about The Circle.
| The AtlanticDavid SimsAs a satire, The Circle might have been worth a few giggles, but as a deadly serious drama, it's laughable in an entirely different way. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekTakes up a subject the invites sharp satire and suspenseful paranoia, but turns it into something bland and forgettable. |
| New York Magazine/VultureDavid EdelsteinThe Circle is a tonal mess: part satire, part moralistic melodrama. Some of it is broadly acted, some of it subtle, much of it overheated. It has great moments, though. |
| Entertainment WeeklyChris NashawatyIt’s a movie that desperately wants to be timely and relevant, warning us about the Brave New World threats we all face when it comes to privacy, surveillance, and freedom. But it’s so cartoony and ham-fisted it sabotages its own argument. |
| FilmDrunkVincent ManciniThis attempt at a cautionary tale is badly outdated, too vague to be compelling, and bafflingly executed. Basically a completely miss. |
| Consequence of SoundDominick MayerPonsoldt and Eggers' screenplay yields a heavy-handed take on web titans and the doublespeak of Internet buzzwords, and struggles to generate intrigue from either. |
| Boston HeraldStephen SchaeferThe Circle is a supposed thriller -- without thrills. It also lacks common sense, commanding performances or surprise. |
| eFilmCritic.comPeter SobczynskiIt has some smart and funny things to say. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA dystopian story that raises key questions about whether technology really serves the common good. |
| Brooklyn MagazineKristen Yoonsoo KimI'm still wrapping my head around this film, but I'm not so sure if director James Ponsoldt himself knows what a comedy this is. |
