I've seen screen savers with more depth and fewer unnecessary lens flares than The Roundup.

The Roundup: proof the studio reads its own marketing too literally.

The Roundup has the emotional range of a fridge magnet.

Unpopular opinion: The Roundup is the most overrated film of the decade
Just got out of The Roundup and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Hot Take: The Roundup's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Director clearly thought The Roundup was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

The cinematography in The Roundup is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Rewatched The Roundup last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in The Roundup actually is?
Honestly, The Roundup would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
