A film that takes the unusual metaphor of contemporary man as living hologram until unexpected limit consequences. [Full review in Spanish]

Not even the mighty Tom Hanks can save this scattershot adaptation of Dave Eggers' lost-soul novel

To describe this as a movie about a mediocre businessman biding his time before an appointment probably makes it sound more exciting than it is.

It's hard to imagine a more Tom Hanks-y setup than this.

If it sounds like Hologram is basically about a middle-aged white guy getting his groove back in the Middle East, well, yes, it is that. But if you squint hard enough, it's also a little bit more.

Strand Hanks on a desert island, a pirate ship or in a well-intentioned film without much focus and he'll still find a way of turning it around.

Hologram tries your patience a bit, but its leading man carries it, like he always bloody does.

It has a certain amount of charm, mostly thanks to the cast, but ultimately A Hologram for the King is a little underwhelming.

A Hologram for the King features Tykwer's known style of repetition and alternative music choices, and is a sad misfire.

Frequently, Hologram plays like a good Mad Men episode, with Don Draper feeling his age and swallowing his moral corrosion in the name of a job and his family.

It looks expensive and comes off bland.
April 22, 2016
It's a sweet, deliberately meandering movie, and it took me a while to connect with it. But it won me over because ultimately it conveys so well that feeling of estrangement that is both terrifying and comic for any farflung traveler.
