"Mickey 17: How to Watch - Showtimes and Streaming Details"

Award-winning director Bong Joon Ho is back with a new film, and he's brought along Robert Pattinson, known for his roles in Twilight and The Batman. In Mickey 17, Pattinson takes on the role of an "expendable," a person sent into perilous environments to die, only to be revived as a clone and face death again. This concept echoes Pattinson's character Cedric Diggory, whom he expressed a desire to give a second chance at life.

In his review for IGN, critic Siddhant Adlakha delves into the philosophical aspects of this otherwise "depressing" sci-fi comedy. He notes that "Mickey 17 is confrontational by virtue of its pessimism, transforming a mostly straightforward novel into a stark reflection of how the current political moment came to be – albeit without letting anyone (least of all, those of us at the mercy of these larger forces) off the hook for our own transgressions."
