The Circle
by Dave Eggers

I just finished the book that this movie is based on. In fairness to Emma Watson's acting, her character (Mae) in the novel is superficial, self-obsessed, naive and puerile. Perhaps the director wanted her to duplicate that character. However, while reading about a protagonist who is unbelievably stupid can be difficult, watching that type in a movie is almost impossible. This film is not going bring in the money needed for a profit.
