Award-winning director Bong Joon Ho has teamed up with Robert Pattinson, known for his roles in Twilight and The Batman, for his latest film, Mickey 17. In this intriguing sci-fi comedy, Pattinson plays an "expendable" named Mickey, tasked with venturing into dangerous environments, only to be revived as a clone after each death. The film draws inspiration from Edward Ashton's novel, Mickey7, and Pattinson humorously references his past role as Cedric Diggory, expressing a desire to give that character a "second chance at life."
IGN's critic, Siddhant Adlakha, delves into the philosophical depths of Mickey 17, describing it as a film that, despite its bleak setting, confronts viewers with its pessimism. It transforms Ashton's straightforward narrative into a reflective piece on contemporary political dynamics, holding everyone accountable for their actions within these systems.
