1) The Circle (2017)
In The Circle, Tom Hanks portrays an enigmatic tech CEO Eamon Bailey, charismatic but mysterious. Dystopian near-future settings shape the movie, as issues of privacy, surveillance, and the cost of transparency are discussed. Even when it did not receive a uniformly positive review, the image of a benevolent ruler with a dark plan held by Hanks remains appealing. The movie is a warning for our lives that increasingly exist in the digital world. The nuanced performance by Hanks gives this chilling narrative more appeal. A must-watch for tech-thriller fans of a thought-provoking kind.
