10 2017 Movies That Could Score 100% On Rotten Tomatoes
4. Mute
Duncan Jones fudged his record a little with Warcraft, after delivering the one-two punch of Moon and Source Code. It wasn’t that the movie was bad, but trying to cram all that complicated mythology into a user-friendly movie was always going to be a tall order.
He’s also acknowledged it was something of a career move, and that he’d be making his pet project Mute afterwards. He describes it as a spiritual sequel to Moon, and the plot follows a mute bartender in a futuristic city trying to find his lost love. Alexander Skarsgard will play the lead, while Paul Rudd and Justin Theroux will provide support.
The concept art for the film looks gorgeous, and Mute should be a palette cleanser for Jones after the massive undertaking of Warcraft, and if it’s like his first two movies audiences should be in very safe hands.
