    The Electric State

    ★½

    This is one of those movies that is a mishmash of other movies but does it much worse. The storytelling is basically just exposition dump after exposition dump. There is awful, predictable, and generic dialogue, conversations, and interactions.

This was the rare film where every aspect of the film is great not just Nolan's direction and writing which are pitch perfect. So let's start with this fantastic cast which is very deep. I felt like every time I turned around another actor/actress would pop up in this thing and give a great one or two scene performance.…
