The story didn't resolve in any meaningful way. It just ended. Very confusing.

Was there supposed to be an ending that you understood or that made sense? This movie says..what's an ending?

The end result is a meandering story featuring shallow, unconvincing characters attempting to illustrate the evils of technology in its undermining of individual liberties. The Circle offers a lot of good bullet arguments but this is a movie not a Powerpoint presentation.

Has a lot of good ideas and a few engrossing sequences, but it never quite finds a groove, or even a mode, and it ends in an abrupt, unsatisfying way.

It's a paranoid thriller without suspense, urgency or a single new thing to say.
