Sorry to Bother You — Dystopian dark comedy starring LaKeith Stanfield, Tessa Thompson, Danny Glover, David Cross, Terry Crews, Steve Yeun and more.
Cassius (Stanfield), broke, living in his uncle’s (Crews) garage and out of luck, applies for a job at an Oakland area call center. Eager to impress his girlfriend, and after some sage advice from a veteran co-coworker (Glover), he discovers the key to telemarketing sales.
Cassius has finally found his calling, and even looks poised to become a mythical “power caller” who operated on the mysterious second floor of the dilapidated building. But will he focus on sales spell trouble for his relationships with his friends and girlfriend (Thompson)?
There’s also more than meets the eye as far as the power calling is concerned — and not in a good way.
I enjoyed it. Pretty funny. Very weird.
