Hypnotic Review: A Mind-Bending Mystery with a Shotgun Pace

Director Robert Rodriguez and Ben Affleck embark on a mind-bending mystery with more twists than a pretzel. Hypnotic often feels like a greatest hits compilation of sci-fi brain-teasers. The film is akin to a Jenga blocks puzzle of Memento, Inception, Dr. Strange, and Marvel's Jessica Jones with a generous sprinkling of The Adjustment Bureau. First act reveals dive deeper down the rabbit hole than expected. A shotgun pace never pauses long enough to process WTF moments. This isn't bad, just rushed. That's forgivable as the plot gets progressively better and more interesting.
