The Circle

posted December 7, 2016 #

Pretty straightforward first trailer for the adaptation of Dave Egger's The Circle. On the whole, the book is a somewhat scary and prophetic take on technologies invasive role in our lives - much of which we're already seeing happen with Facebook Live, Nest Cameras, Alexa, Google Home, etc. For me, the book's plot took a twist that made it a bit Hollywood and absurd but I think I mostly just interested in a continued exploration of how technology is altering us, sometimes for the worse.

Regardless, the trailer looks pretty dead on and I'm sure I'll see the movie.
