In the taut psychological thriller Hypnotic, Ben Affleck stars as Danny Rourke, a troubled Austin detective haunted by the unsolved disappearance of his young daughter. His search for answers takes a bizarre and dangerous turn when he is assigned to investigate a mysterious bank robbery, one that appears to have been orchestrated by a man known only as Dellrayne, played by William Fichtner, who can command people with a single word. Teaming with a gifted psychic, Diana Cruz (Alice Braga), Rourke plunges into a shadowy world where reality is fluid and nothing can be trusted. Directed by Robert Rodriguez, the film weaves a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game where every clue unravels another layer of deception, forcing Rourke to question his own memories and sanity as he races to uncover a conspiracy that reaches far beyond a simple crime.
