Duncan Jones explores a sci-fi neo-noir world in Mute, a Netflix original film that sees a mute man head into Berin's underworld to find his missing girlfriend. Leo, a mute bartender working in a Berlin strip club, is left clues by his significant other after mysterious circumstances leave her missing. To find her, Leo will lean into his violent talents and battle his way to the truth.
Despite some promising elements, Mute struggles to explore philosophical questions within a sci-fi setting in a way that feels innovative and fresh.
