Nightmare Alley (2021)
the "Top Review" by grantss is faulty

The second act does not start an hour into the movie but at 29:07, a very suitable time. It is just after Carlisle is shown the book and it's contents demonstrated. The last shot is Carlisle contemplating his possible future. The next two scenes teach him how to kill Pete, so clearly the second act is in motion.
I enjoyed the first hour much more than grantss. But I do agree the movie becomes very predictable after this point and eventually peters out.
