Sorry To Bother You
Annapurna
“Sorry To Bother You” is gloriously indescribable. Set in al alternate version of present day Oakland, the film follows a Black telemarketer (LaKeith Stanfield) as he makes the terrifying climb through corporate America. After adopting a “white voice” to sell the company’s products over the phone, Cassius rockets through the surreal world of professional success, and it turns out to be much more macabre than he ever imagined. It’s hard to say much more without spoiling all of Boots Riley’s wild surprises, so I’ll get a little cliched instead: expect the unexpected. “Sorry To Bother You” provides some fascinating, biting satire and will probably haunt you for quite a while after the credits roll. Check it out at the end of the month, on September 27, 2021.

There’s so much to love about Aneesh Chaganty’s feature debut. Most impressive is the way it refreshes the screen-life format, making a movie that was notably thrilling despite taking place entirely on a computer screen. In fact, it uses that feature to great effect, creating suspense with its limitations. The film follows a father (John Cho) in search of his missing 16-year old daughter, who turns to the internet unravel the twisty truth behind her disappearance. Along the way, he’s helped by a police detective (Debra Messing) — but as all great mysteries teach us, he has to go a little rogue to actually find the truth. The best part of “Searching” is trying to solve the mystery for yourself, and experiencing all the twists in real time. But here’s some great news — even if you’ve already seen it, it’s fascinating to rewatch when you know what’s actually going on (even better if you watch alongside a newbie). “Searching” comes to the service on September 14, 2021.
