Franklyn (2009)

In the future, everyone has a religion, even if it is based on nothing more than a washing machine instruction manual. Everyone that is except for Jonathon Preest (Ryan Phillippe) who finds himself arrested and then recruited by the men in big hats. It’s more complicated and potentially interesting than that, including overlapping stories from different times, but this film is so excruciatingly dull I stopped caring long before the end. A little bit Dark City, a little bit Donnie Darko, a little bit V For Vendetta, but mostly a whole lot of boring.
