Plots(1)
The Thinning is set in a dystopian future where population control is dictated by an aptitude test in high school. When two students (Logan Paul and Peyton List) discover the test is all smoke and mirrors hiding a larger conspiracy, they must go against the system to expose it and take it down. (Austin Film Festival)
Reviews (1)
Having a great idea doesn't necessarily mean you'll have a great film. The Thinning has a great premise - states had to introduce a selective sieve to determine which people are truly beneficial for the overcrowded Earth. Those who fail the test are out. Completely. But what if someone changes the results? It's unfortunately shot like a small film, which just doesn't suit it that well.
