Critics descend on Taika Waititi's new film

The first reviews of Klara and the Sun are very negative. Jenna Ortega plays a robot tasked with keeping a sick young girl company, while Amy Adams, Natasha Lyonne, Simon Baker and Steve Buscemi appear in the June trailer. Taika Waititi's direction, awaited for three years, fails, according to critics, to capture the depth of Kazuo Ishiguro's novel. The film is described as a clumsy, purposeless sci-fi comedy, far from the 'beauty' of the dystopian tale. According to Écran Large, the long-awaited project ends in a notable downgrade.
