Award-winning director Bong Joon Ho returns with his latest cinematic venture, Mickey 17, featuring Robert Pattinson, known for his roles in Twilight and The Batman. In this film, Pattinson plays an "expendable," a character sent into dangerous environments only to be cloned and sent back repeatedly. This role echoes his past character Cedric Diggory, whom Pattinson has expressed a desire to give a "second chance at life."
In his review for IGN, critic Siddhant Adlakha delves into the philosophical depth of this sci-fi comedy, describing it as "confrontational by virtue of its pessimism." He explains that the film transforms Edward Ashton's novel into a stark reflection of current political climates, holding everyone accountable for their actions within these broader societal contexts.
