tedious and backlit

Accurate depiction of corporate work.

Marketed and scored as a horror movie with nods to The Shining throughout, but this is a prison drama. As it should be, because isn’t a care facility prison?

Stars to come later, but, hey! It’s a good-lookin’ movie with the boy cast filling out Linklater’s usual suspects. Better and more beautiful than Young Guns. Vincent D'Onofrio is not his glorious MIB best and Julianna Margulies is wooden, riding out her ER days. Kinda hard to care about but a good case for everyone’s favorite Texan auteur to do a period picture.
