In the movie, Finn Wolfhard, famous for his role as "Eleven" in "Stranger Things," plays a son who is addicted to social media. His character is a stark contrast to his mother, played by the brilliant Julianne Moore, who is a political fanatic. Eisenberg manages to infuse the story of their clashing worlds with a distinct sense of black humor, making the film both relatable and entertaining. The interactions between the mother and son, with their differing values and priorities, create a narrative filled with tension and comical moments.
Based on Eisenberg's own Audible original podcast, the film delves deep into the complex relationship between the two main characters. It not only showcases the digital age's impact on the younger generation but also the disconnect that can exist between parents and their children in a rapidly changing world. "When You Finish Saving the World" marks an exciting start to Eisenberg's career behind the camera, leaving audiences eager to see what he will create next.
