‘Hurry Up Tomorrow’ – A Musical Star’s Downfall

The film follows Abel (The Weeknd), a musician dealing with a sudden heartbreak. The story begins with Abel’s despair, with his manager Lee (Barry Keoghan) showing a lack of empathy. The story then moves towards an interaction with a fan, Anima (Jenna Ortega). This encounter leads to unsettling events. The director uses psychedelic visuals to convey Abel’s descent, yet these sequences sometimes detract from the plot. The movie, however, is a powerful examination of the singer’s struggle with fame and its effects. The performances by The Weeknd and Jenna Ortega are highlights, showcasing the characters’ inner turmoil.
