KIMI (2022)

2/11/22 - Kimi (2022) - 5/10

A fine if somewhat lacking thriller. It’s a bit of Blowout combined with The Net, remixed during the COVID pandemic with some Copycat-esque agoraphobia, and all captured with some of the sleek guerilla filmmaking of Soderbergh. It is engaging and well acted by Kravitz, but the totality is off, with the ending being too abrupt and skimpy on development & heft. It is lean and driven, with some classy panache of SS, but beyond light “why not?” whim, it isn’t anything to seek out.
