Watch it tonight if you want something bold and inventive—Alejandro González Iñárritu's one-take illusion is a masterclass in style, and Michael Keaton's performance is razor-sharp and deeply human. It's a bit self-indulgent and the satirical swing at superhero culture can feel heavy-handed, but it's the kind of weird, meta-theatrical experience that sticks with you.

Plot

A fading actor best known for his portrayal of a popular superhero attempts to mount a comeback by appearing in a Broadway play. As opening night approaches, his attempts to become more altruistic, rebuild his career, and reconnect with friends and family prove more difficult than expected.
