The Assistant (III) (2019)
2/10
Once scene of moral ambiguity does not a compelling story make
2 March 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Watch as she makes coffee. Watch as she makes copies. Watch as she sweeps crumbs. Watch as she empties a wastebasket. Watch as she changes travel plans for someone else. Watch as she almost scrambles when the usual driver can't pick her boss up. Watch as she makes more copies. Watch as she heats a TV dinner... every second that it's in the microwave... I wish I was kidding. I've worked on over 60 films and spent a lot of time working in production offices. This has to the absolute dullest film on the subject I've ever seen. The lead appears to have some talent, but she's allowed exactly one note (Okay, maybe one and a half). Watch as she plays that extra half of a note, on an impromptu visit to HR. Watch as she smokes a cigarette after.

Just don't expect anything to happen. Also, seriously, don't watch this.
