Mountainhead follows the " Brewsters ," a group of four uber-wealthy tech bros whose poker night gets derailed by global unrest.

Among them is the richest man in the world, the founder of social media platform Traam .

The effect is sobering, with Armstrong expertly stoking the flames of AI anxieties.

The film's jump into an absurdist crime caper is a welcome shot in the arm.

Mountainhead's quick turnaround time makes it a fascinating experiment in and of itself.

But in the end, it's not the barrage of references to AI and other tech that stick in the head.
