ShangLuda Admirable film.
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
ParanoidJackss I don't get all the hate, really. I thought it was very creative how they used a computer screen to show the story. Sure, it didn't have the most surprising story or surprising ending, but it was entertaining. Very entertaining. I can't really review the horror aspect of it since I practically never get horrified or scared while watching horror movies, but it definitely had its own charm. The way the computers are being hacked- it was not even close to how computers are hacked in real life. At least, I guess so based on my own knowledge. I'm not a hacker. So if you can't stand such a flaw and if it would just annoy you the entire time instead of focusing on the movie itself- then it's probably better not to watch it at all. Other than that- if you're looking for some entertaining horror flick then go for it. This is a good way to spend your time. Trust me. I've seen enough terrible, bad, awful horror movies and this one is not one of them.
aquascape First of all, "Unfriended" depicts perfectly how the majority of teenagers today behave inside a circle of friends. Now, commenting if that is how they "should" behave is a totally different subject.Second, for its interesting format, the movie's premise found the perfect demographic to display its plot, a group of misfits each different than the other, each with something to hide. The characters were designed in such way to not root for any of them, which I felt almost from the beginning and the ending gives us a great moral and that is "to be a better friend".I have to admit, going in the first 10 minutes, I did tend to turn it off, because it didn't really feel like a theatrical release, but more like someone used a software to record a Skype session. Plus, for someone who would know how to use a computer well, you would find some inconsistencies but nothing major to disrupt the plot or to make it unwatchable.Before finding out it was supernatural, I really wished it was some sort of a real revenge and not a paranormal haunting, but nevertheless it ultimately delivered into a average to decent horror film.
BoxFroggy I would have gotten 600% more enjoyment out of watching and hour long compilation of pewdiepie just screaming, constantly, nothing else but him screaming
kurt_cobain_2794 Unfriended is another dime a dozen found footage horror movie, but this time it takes place from a computer screen while 5 "teens" Skype each other with a ghost killing them one by one. However, it's a boring, run of the mill jump scare fest with nothing else to offer outside of... actually, no, it has nothing to offer, nothing new or interesting. All the characters are unlikable and do nothing except curse out, insult, and otherwise act like horrible people to one another, so you feel nothing when they're all eventually killed off. The premise is interesting on paper but is executed super poorly, either with long plodding silent scenes of watching people read things off their screens or garbled "webcam" footage as people die. The death scenes are also hard to follow, with one apparently dying from a seizure, I had to rewatch the scene numerous times but couldn't never tell what was happening. I can't recommend this film, in fact I suggest if you see it, destroy it, take the disc and crack it in half, you'll have a better time watching the disc break than you would watching the movie it contain.
