Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
massamchris Starts off intriguing then after that it slowly bores you to death where you don't realy care how it ends. The frustrating thing is. 20 minutes in and you think you have a decent film. But thats when it goes flat as a pancake.
myerschristopher The internet will always have it's dark edges and the surface where friends and people you care about exist and can keep in touch with you and your life. This movie simply starts off happy and relaxing until you begin to experience the true supernatural haunting a popular college girl. She is haunted only because a single girl whom she lies to, commits to such rage and vengeance against Laura. No spoilers it is very depressing and leaves the audience feeling just as helpless as the main protagonist's life is just erased. It's not a movie where you will leave with a happy face on and I urge not to watch it's punishing.
Alice C Extremely long and boring saga mixing in typical ingredients, freaky girl, social media, somehow witchcraft. There is no payoff in the end. I don't know if there was some morality play in the screenwriters mind but it was done poorly with no good scares or kills.
ravenhair702 When I showed this trailer to my wife, she swore she'd seen it. I told her that you're thinking of Unfriended. That's how alike these movies are. They differ in some ways and all in all I thought the movie wasn't too bad. God knows I've seen worse. The acting was good and the effects were decent. I really was impressed on how the lone girl, Marina, was so creepy. That girl we all saw in high school with black lipstick with one or no friends. She just has to be different and fight the norm. Yeah, we get it. It was the same frame of horror story though. A group of teens get caught up in a curse and they have to dig into the reason this is happening to them so they can find some way to break free from it. Typical. But, like I said...it wasn't terrible. Kept my interest...only wanted to see how it ended. Being a horror movie...badly of course. If you're bored and you have the time, watch it. It won't kill you. Ha.
