The science in The Electric State has the same relationship to physics that I have to going to the gym: aspirational.

The Electric State is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

If exposition were a contact sport, The Electric State would be banned for life.

The Electric State treats "worldbuilding" the way a toddler treats a fruit bowl — enthusiastically, briefly, then forgotten.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in The Electric State actually is?

Director clearly thought The Electric State was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Unpopular opinion: The Electric State is the most overrated film of the decade

Honestly, The Electric State would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Hot Take: The Electric State's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Look, I wanted to love The Electric State. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
