Film critic Peter Travers reviews 'Foe,' starring Saoirse Ronan, Paul Mescal and Aaron Pierre.
With everything going for it -- two hottie Irish Oscar nominees in Saorise Ronan and Paul Mescal, an acclaimed director in Garth Davis and a timely sci-fi script based on Iain Reid's bestseller about humans being replaced by replicants -- "Foe" hits theaters as an epic botch job.
Ronan plays Hen, short for Henrietta. She's been married for seven years to Junior , but the bloom is off their once feverish attraction. That's mostly due to their stifling existence as hermits in an isolated Midwestern farmhouse that's been in Junior's family for 200 years.Junior has no intention of quitting the place, spending his days handling chickens on an industrial farming assembly line while a despairing Hen works at a conspicuously empty diner.
Compensation for Hen is that Terrance, who spends forever futilely questioning the couple to bring out their inner lives, will make sure Hen isn't lonely by replacing Junior with an A.I. replicant spouting his own ideas on marriage. That may sound like an episode from the acclaimed techno-paranoia series "Black Mirror," but wishing won't make it so.
