Review of Mute (2018) by Alexander R — 27 Feb 2018

Duncan Jones manages to turn the grimey, ugly Berlin into something visually stunning and so believably futuristic that it serves as a terrific counterpoint to the dark storyline. This is one where worldbuilding is everything. Skarsgard and Rudd give a tour de force of performances.

I can see the criticism the film has received: it's a bit slow and plotting, the first twenty minutes or so could be could down, but I could really immerse myself in this ugly but beautiful world. Give it a shot.
