About This Movie

Assumed (2019) presents a gritty vision of the future where crime transcends mere lawbreaking—it's about losing your very identity. Michael D. Head's direction brings a raw, unfiltered tone to the narrative, capturing the tension and desperation of a police officer entangled in a web of corruption. The pacing, at times frenetic and other times almost meditative, mirrors the protagonist's own journey as he fights against a system that seeks to erase him. Practical effects lend an authenticity to the action sequences, avoiding the reliance on CGI that often plagues modern films. Performances are solid, with a palpable sense of urgency that keeps you invested. It’s a distinct take on the crime genre that echoes themes of identity and morality in a chillingly plausible future.
