Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
The Circle is eerily pertinent. If only it could have been a smarter, more vehement piece of social commentary, than perhaps it could have also seemed prescient.

[The Circle] is a suspenseless thriller that isn't nearly as smart as it wants us to think it is, featuring a talented cast that is given oddly little to actually do.

The Maine Edge
Rating: 7/10 --
It succeeds by showing restraint, however, just lacks something that would inject the emotional weight it required.

Watson and Hanks do their best, but the film lacks anything resembling dramatic tension, and ends on an almost laughably truncated climax

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)
Rating: 2/5 --
Watson's integration into the creepily inclusive company does suck you into the story, but her journey to becoming its poster girl and eventual whistle-blower is less convincing.

You have to be good at your job and committed to the craft to put this much earnest and sincere effort into such a\obvious nonsense.

Product Description:
A young woman (Emma Watson) lands a job at a successful social-media company that preaches the value of complete transparency and inspires a cult-like devotion in its employees. However, she soon learns that the corporation and its messianic founder (Tom Hanks) are hiding a nefarious agenda. John Boyega, Karen Gillan, Ellar Coltrane, Ellen Wong, Bill Paxton, Patton Oswalt, and Glenne Headly co-star. James Ponsoldt (THE SPECTACULAR NOW) directed this adaptation of Dave Eggers' novel of the same name.
