Atlas (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Atlas and his dog Charlie are both locked into proximity-triggered collar devices that restrict their movements. Under constant surveillance, Atlas is forced to maintain a rigorous and isolated farming schedule. One day, Charlie breaks free from his leash and we come to understand the tragic consequences of breaching the perimeter. Atlas is left with nothing to live for, but is presented with an opportunity to escape.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
