Solo Mode is an interesting exploration of isolation and connection, especially given its origins in the pandemic. The film dives into a very intimate and almost claustrophobic atmosphere, where a father's well-meaning attempt to bond through a board game spirals into something quite the opposite. There's this unsettling tension as the family members are physically separated, and yet, the emotional stakes are so high. The pacing feels deliberate, mirroring the slow, grinding pressure of lockdown life. Performances are solid, capturing that blend of desperation and humor that so many families experienced. It's a distinctive take on the genre, utilizing practical effects in such a clever way to visually represent that solitude that many felt during those times.
