Yoo not sure if this flew under the radar but it's out on HBOmax and in theatres.

To me it's a really solid dinner and a movie kinda vibe. It's Jon Nolan and Lisa Joy with a slight Westworld lite cast. With them I was worried they would go too far up their own asses with a convoluted story within a convoluted story, but I can happily say it did not do that. Got some Inception notes in there, some Minority Report feel as well.

It kept it fairly light with a paint by numbers mystery set up. It does a lot of random character introductions early on with some backstory to let you know, that shady looking fella is hiding something or that crazy lady has more story to tell. Nothing and no one gets wasted and you can have fun with your friends guessing who did it half-way through Clue-style. Someone's gonna get it right, but I enjoyed letting it play out. Some might want more from their sci-fi mystery flicks but yesterday on the couch I didn't need more than that.
