About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a tense, brainy business thriller about obsession, competition, and tiny advantages with big stakes; Not for you if you need constant action or a big, crowd-pleasing payoff like Good Kill.
Pros: suspenseful race against time; strong lead performances; thought-provoking tech themes | Cons: slow in stretches; dry, talky moments; divisive, low-impact ending
