The Circle (2017)

Unsubtle morality fable

A drama where naive Emma Watson goes to work for a technology company called The Circle which has cult-like beliefs.

It's not very subtle in pushing its moral about loss of privacy. The lead character is a little too obvious to the extent of being cutesy, the "villain", the big boss played by Tom Hanks is quite a thin character, and generally the film is not very engaging, ironically enough you might end up checking your phone or other social media halfway through this.

The film also seems to be aimed at people who like Emma Watson a lot. The camera spends most of its time on her.
