There's a big likeability factor about Miles Teller, that one would agree after seeing his performance in Top Gun: Maverick and now in #Spiderhead. It's like one would always root for him. Chris Hemsworth shows his range as an actor in a role, that is his best performance so far.

Spiderhead - not much going off to begin with but gradually improved. Ending was decent but not as good as I thought it was going to be. #Spiderhead

Soundtrack is definitely top notch #Spiderhead

Wow, #Spiderhead just misses the mark. @netflix how much did this cost? Not even the gorgeous and talented @chrishemsworth can save it and he is really the reason to watch. I found story hard to follow, and a moody Bladerunner feel that just seems odd on an island.

#Spiderhead is perfectly entertaining in the moment, but ultimately feels so slight and lacks the energy it needed. Miles Teller & Jurnee Smollett are very solid, but it's Chris Hemsworth who steals it. I dug this concept, but feels like the film barely scratches the surface. pic.twitter.com/irSbBrmSOy

#Spiderhead was not a good movie. Boring and slow. Underwhelming and weak plot. The only redeeming aspect of the movie was Chris Hemsworth 😍#Raview: 4/10

More about Spiderhead
The thrilling drama is directed by Joseph Kosinski and is based on the New Yorker short story by George Saunders. The film will witness Hemsworth as a visionary who develops a futuristic prison and experiments on inmates with mind-altering drugs. The intriguing film also deals with the after-effects, and the way Chris Hemsworth deals with the scenario. The official synopsis of the film read-
"In a state-of-the-art penitentiary run by brilliant visionary Steve Abnesti (Chris Hemsworth), inmates wear a surgically attached device that administers dosages of mind-altering drugs in exchange for commuted sentences. There are no bars, no cells, or orange jumpsuits. In Spiderhead, incarcerated volunteers are free to be themselves. Until they’re not. At times, they’re a better version. Need to lighten up? There’s a drug for that. At a loss for words? There’s a drug for that, too. But when two subjects, Jeff (Miles Teller) and Lizzy (Jurnee Smollett), form a connection, their path to redemption takes a twistier turn, as Abnesti’s experiments start to push the limits of free will altogether."
