Anyone else feel the movie suffered from a bit of "unfulfilled potential" in not really closing the full circle of its plot?

With an absolutely killer cast, The Circle is let down by a totally unfulfilling plot and script that felt many times like it was scrabbling for direction or resolve. Like an episode of Black Mirror minus any of the depth or intrigue that comes with it.

**Despite a message film, an average!**

A book based film. Pretty much set in the present world scenario. The world where the internet, the social media is controlling people. If any revolution must take place, that's none other place than the virtual world. So a young woman who worked hard to ge More

There are some shows that have a character for exposition. Velma in Scooby Doo comes to mind, and it is their job to summarize the plot points that the viewer has missed.

This is a movie filled with Velmas. Everyone gives a little exposition, everyone has a lecture. And no one seems real because More
