Spitball Army

5.2
[blu-ray, Netflix]

There is humor at the edges of this paranoid fable. However, the sly satirical humor (mostly buried in the multitude of text messages that pepper the screen during the immersive social media scenes) don’t compensate for the shallow character representation and re-tread plot. Tom Hanks is fine, as usual; Emma Watson shrill and mousey and not the sparked heroine the film tries to make her out to be.
