Kimi

Kimi is fruitful yet incomplete. First, the story introduces interesting ideas, but doesn't follow through. Zoe Kravitz's agoraphobic protagonist leads a confined life before stumbling upon a crime recorded on a home device. From there, Kravitz attempts to expose the crime, but she's met with a bureaucratic conspiracy. This premise establishes themes of captivity, surveillance, and systemic injustice. However, these subjects don't concretely pay off. Similarly, the acting is inconsistent. Kravitz optimizes the role, yet her material is one note. She adds layers but the script lacks a clear arc, stagnating her performance. Meanwhile, her supporting cast (besides Wilson) is weak. Beyond Kravitz, Kimi's virtue is its filmmaking. The cast, production, and effects are sparse, but craftsmanship is potent. For example, the cinematography uses varied shots and compositions to keep entertainment high and emotions palpable. In Kravitz's apartment, overheads and extreme close-ups convey importance and maintain engagement. Outside, Dutch angles, unsteady movement, and confined spacing express intense anxiety. Plus, the editing efficiently matches Kravitz's mental state, the sound symbolically reflects her perspective, and the music is oddly fitting. Soderbergh gets plenty out of this limited project. Ultimately, Kimi has merit but isn't a must-see. Writing: 6/10 Direction: 8/10 Cinematography: 9/10 Acting: 8/10 Editing: 8/10 Sound: 8/10 Score/Soundtrack: 7/10 Production Design: 6/10 C...

But what in lesser hands might have been just another tiresome COVID-19 quickie, locking us into a reality we’re all desperate to escape, becomes a tautly suspenseful nail-biter in Kimi, thanks to tirelessly eclectic director Rear Window and Blow Out in the age of virtual assistants, all-seeing algorithms, invasive surveillance and snaky tech magnates. At a time when Facebook guru Mark Zuckerberg’s ambivalence about privacy issues and his ambitious Metaverse plans have cast him in a dubious light, it feels appropriate to make a villain out of a tech conglomerate CEO eyeing a squillion-dollar personal profit from an IPO. And it’s a sly inside joke to cast neo-illusionist Derek DelGaudio in the role of Amygdala Corporation chief Bradley Hasling, taking his company public on the strength of a virtual assistant called Kimi. Release date: Friday, Feb. 11 Cast: Zoë Kravitz, Byron Bowers, Jaime Cavil, Erika Christensen, Derek DelGaudio, Robin Givens, C...

We now may laugh – go ahead: Ha! Ha ha! – at such a silly notion, as HBO Max exclusive Kimi is his seventh film in six years. His diversity as a visual storyteller is nearly unparalleled (Spielberg may be the only similarly prolific director with broader range), as he follows up a goofball lark ( ) with an iPhone-shot actioner ( ) with a behind-the-sports drama ( ) with an improv chatfest ( ) with a period noir ( ) with Kimi , a concise, linear-for-Soderbergh neo-tech-thriller starring Zoe Kravitz. And all this gets one wondering if Soderbergh has ever truly made a movie that isn’t worth watching at least once. The Gist: Angela Childs’ (Kravitz) Seattle loft apartment is meticulous. She’s very particular about her pillows. She tightens her bedcovers with military rigor. She stationary-cycles rigorously and showers almost as rigorously afterward, scrubbing a little harder than you or I probably would. She brushes her teeth and takes her pills and has a whole routine and you get the sense that she never, ever devia...
