The acclaimed director Bong Joon Ho returns with his latest project, "Mickey 17," featuring Robert Pattinson, known for his roles in "Twilight" and "The Batman." In this film, Pattinson takes on the role of an "expendable," a character who is sent into dangerous environments to die and is then repeatedly revived as a clone. This role echoes Pattinson's previous character, Cedric Diggory, whom he humorously mentioned he'd like to give a second chance at life.
In his review for IGN, critic Siddhant Adlakha delves into the philosophical aspects of the film, describing "Mickey 17" as a sci-fi comedy that, despite its depressing tone, challenges viewers with its pessimism. He notes that the movie transforms Edward Ashton's novel into a critical reflection on contemporary political issues, holding individuals accountable for their actions within larger societal forces.
