MUTE
February 23, 2018  | By David Bianculli

Netflix, 3:00 a.m. ET

 

MOVIE PREMIERE: This new Netflix film is another in its current spate of futuristic dystopian dramas. This one is set in a postmodern, post-today Berlin, with flying cars and robotic exotic dancer. Alexander Skarsgard, from Big Little Lies and True Blood, plays Leo, a bartender who suffered a boat accident as an Amish child, and has lived his adult live unable to speak. Seyneb Saleh plays Naadirah, a blue-haired worker at the nightclub where Leo works – and the two of them seem to have quite a connection, even though he never says a word. Which, I guess, is a Mute point.
