Mae is a critic, entertainment writer, and Screen Rant's Reviews Editor.
In the near future, if a couple wants to have children, they can only do so after being given the green light following a successful seven-day assessment. In the world created by writers John Donelly and Mrs. and Mr. Thomas , there’s control of just about everything. This future society is also where people take pills to remain youthful and alive for far longer than typically possible.
Mia’s mother left to return to the old world, and it’s a point of contention between her and Virginia, who seems awfully judgmental of that fact. When the couple’s friends come for dinner, in a stellar and riotously funny scene that includes an excellent Minnie Driver, the world expands with new information, and nothing is forced in that regard. Fortuné has a firm grasp of what this world is meant to represent and the feelings it evokes in us for the nearly two hours we’re immersed in it.
The Assessment is thoughtful and compelling, but it just doesn’t reach the heights needed to keep its momentum.
