Steven Soderbergh's latest film, Kimi, is a mess. Given Soderbergh and David Koepp's prior accomplishments., I had high hopes for this film. However, after a captivating opening half-hour, "Kimi" begins to lose its footing and never regains it.
Full of promise, but lacking in execution. Something feels lacking, due in part to Zoë Kravitz's character and a finale that feels out of place. Despite its flaws, Kimi does have some good moments. It's a well-paced film that offers commentary on themes of isolation and privacy, which are both relevant topics in today's world. Unfortunately, these aspects are not enough to overcome the film's shortcomings.

Rating: 6.2/10 Since I'm feeling generous.
