Pretty much a standard thriller, no more, no less.
When I first heard about this film, I was eager to watch it, thinking that it would be a bit of an expose of the mental mess that is (anti)social media. Unfortunately, it barely addresses this or the misery the illusions of online "reality" cause, instead opting to present a tale we've all seen many times before... or, at least, it certainly feels like it!
The performers all do their roles well, the camera-work, sound, music is all fine... the problem is: nothing is even close to being exceptional.; from the bog standard script to the male lead's almost dopey face throughout, there's nothing about this film that makes it really stand out or say, "Watch me."
Ultimately, this was a very average film but I gave it a 6/10 just because it did touch upon how psychologically damaging (anti)social media is, and the female lead looking so gorgeous throughout is always nice from a straight man's point of view, regardless as to how superficial and/or sexist that may seem.
At least I'm honest.
