Review: The Future

“It’s not that July doesn’t have any good ideas. One sequence where Sophie’s pregnant friends transform with each reverse shot, during the course of a single conversation, into their own children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, where generations fly by in a bewildering matter of seconds, artfully captures Sophie’s helpless sense of disconnect from the marching tides of maturity around her. And the sub-plot of Sophie’s escape into a vaguely masochistic suburban domesticity is full of unexplored potential.”
