anti_recsMute - netflix
A disappointing showing from Duncan Jones, who previously directed Moon and Source Code. In a near-future Berlin, a mute bartender searches for his missing girlfriend. The circle these two moved in is full of seedy members of organized crime, including black-market surgeons who torture people. We eventually find out that the protagonist's girlfriend has been murdered. Oh, and she was the only woman in the film, except for some small roles for sex workers (Florence Kasumba! what are you doing in this movie?). And there is a totally unnecessary and strange sub-plot around pedophilia. A very WTF movie.
