\"the-circle-poster\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Based on the international bestseller by Dave Eggers and directed by James Ponsoldt, The Circle<\/em> <\/a>stars Emma Watson and Tom Hanks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What a combination to behold. Watson’s career is really doing well after her Harry Potter days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Circle<\/em> is a thrilling modern morality tale following Mae, played by Watson, as she rises through the ranks of the world’s largest tech and social media company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She’s encouraged by company founder Eamon Bailey, played by Hanks, to live her life with complete transparency. But no one is safe when everyone is watching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trailer seems a bit convoluted, without giving away the story or letting you read the book.\u00a0 It is hard to tell what is happening, but I can’t agree more with the idea that knowledge is power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With that, the thriller looks intense, and Watson plays well with Hanks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
