"Robert Rodriguez's Hypnotic: A Mind-Bending Thriller Starring Ben Affleck"

"Hypnotic" is a sci-fi thriller about a Texas cop who uncovers a conspiracy of mind-controlling crooks. Directed, scripted, and edited by Robert Rodriguez, the film stars Ben Affleck and William Fichtner. While the film has obvious twists and embarrassing dialogue, it tries to lull viewers into a suggestive frame of mind. The film is set in Austin, Texas, and features some of Rodriguez's signature fetishes. The dramatic stakes could be higher, but the film is charming in its own stumbling way.
