In Montana, where writer-director Sarah Adina Smith filmed her small-town sci-fi flick, Buster’s Mal Heart, the winter-inversion clouds hang heavy in valleys, trapping the sunlight that bounces off the snow.

Before Mr. Robot, Rami Malek signed on for the bigger mind f#ck of Buster’s Mal Heart.

The 21st century has not yet produced a whole lot of noteworthy “what is reality?” movies, perhaps because we’re too busy wondering “what is reality?” in real life to be potentially entertained by a fictional iteration of the question. Or maybe it’s just because David Lynch hasn’t made a feature film in over a decade.

An unusual movie like “Buster’s Mal Heart” demands an unusual star, and Rami Malek proves an ideal fit for Sarah Adina Smith’s sophomore feature. Despite being both a captivating screen presence and a tremendous actor, Malek isn’t a conventional leading man — but as his work on the critically acclaimed cult favorite TV series “Mr. Robot” has already demonstrated, conventional isn’t always the best way to go.

'Mr. Robot's' Rami Malek plays multiple roles (sort of) in Sarah Adina Smith's study of paranoia and loss.

Featuring frogs, sphincters, and blood, Smith’s picture certainly presents plenty of oddball material to sift through.
2917d ago
The structural concepts are all here to create an intriguing psychological drama, but the lack of realism when it comes to the supporting cast of caricatures makes for a tenuous emotional foundation.
2917d ago
Buster’s Mal Heart is about the making of a madman. It also aspires, with less success, to philosophically query the void at the center of modern life and Christianity’s failure to fill it.
2917d ago
Despite its undoubted ambition and an excellent central performance from Rami Malek, Buster’s Mal Heart slips into the traps that so often face thrillers of its type.
2917d ago
Throughout these and other scenes, Malek's knack for subtly highlighting the loose screws beneath his character's seemingly bland exterior is so captivating that it almost distracts from the fact that Buster's Mal Heart seems to confuse narrative gimmickry for the sensitive evocation of an inner life.
