   Is 'the circle' a good movie?

   • The Circle assembles an impressive cast, but this digitally driven thriller spins aimlessly in its half-hearted exploration of timely themes. Director James Ponsoldt (who adapted the book with Eggers) barely develops any character besides Watson's, piling on narrative complications instead.

   Is 'the circle' a tech thriller?

   • The objective of a tech thriller shouldn't be an award for peering most presciently into our digital downfall.

   Is the circle a good book?

   • The Circle starts promisingly enough, like a more updated Antitrust (2001), with appealing characters and an exciting setting. Then Mae takes such a puzzling left turn. Not only is it difficult to identify with her, but when she verbally argues her decision, it sounds wooden and hollow.

   Is 'the circle' a dystopian thriller?

   • You could call “The Circle” a dystopian thriller, yet it’s not the usual boilerplate sci-fi about grimly abstract oppressors lording it over everyone else. The movie is smarter and creepier than that; it’s a cautionary tale for the age of social-media witch hunts and compulsive oversharing.

   Is 'the circle' a swankly ominous corporate thriller?

   • A shrewdly ominous corporate thriller about the death of privacy in the digital age is, at last, a movie that fingers the proper culprits — namely, us. “ The Circle ” is a swankly sinister little mind teaser of a thriller. It’s a nightmare vision of what digital culture is turning all of us into, with all of our help.

   Real-life tech references in the movie aren't meant as veiled accusations. Hanks' Eamon Bailey, for example, is the company's "public-facing visionary." Earlier this week, Hanks joked with Twitter CEO Jack Dorseyabout playing a diabolical tech genius with a beard. "I played you! I'm not in as good of shape, I didn't exercise or eat as well, but I p...
