The award-winning director Bong Joon Ho is back with his latest film, Mickey 17, featuring Robert Pattinson, known for his roles in Twilight and The Batman. In this thought-provoking sci-fi comedy, Pattinson plays an "expendable," a character who is repeatedly sent into deadly situations only to be cloned and sent back again. This role resonates with Pattinson's past character, Cedric Diggory, whom he wishes to give a "second chance at life."
IGN critic Siddhant Adlakha delves into the film's philosophical depth in his review, describing Mickey 17 as a stark reflection of current societal issues. He notes, "Mickey 17 is confrontational by virtue of its pessimism, transforming a mostly straightforward novel into a stark reflection of how the current political moment came to be – albeit without letting anyone (least of all, those of us at the mercy of these larger forces) off the hook for our own transgressions."
