Cleverly sardonic portrayal of social media and the nincompoops (90% of the world's population) who worship it. Self-absorbed, materialistic, and vain children in adult bodies should be rejoicing that Almighty God promised to never flood…

Aubrey Plaza is spot on in this film about a young woman desperate to make a connection in a social media obsessed world. It's the perfect blend of campy and creepy; while hilarious hijinks ensue, it is also a frank portrayal of social…

In this time of the world where many friends are 'online' it does give this a real time feeling. People stalked 'famous' people previously but now they have a electronic method. After all how did the Kardashian's become so well known and…

I liked this as a creepy, cringe-y dark comedy. What I didn't like so much was the "social commentary" aspect, which I suspect the filmmakers thought was important but for me just fell flat. Still worth a watch.

A disturbing dark comedy that can serve as a lesson on being wary of who you connect with and how much you share on social media. Aubrey Plaza is brilliant as Ingrid, a disturbed young woman who develops obsessions with, befriends and…

The movie made me feel really uncomfortable, which in this case is a good thing, as that what the movie was aiming for. Aubrey Plaza was excellent as Ingrid, and Elizabeth Olsen was brilliant as always. Good reminder to always look behind…

Social commentary on more than one level. Moves a bit slow at times and makes its points more than once (but many people seem to need things repeated before they get it). Some people might not like the ending, but we did. Without ruining…

This dark comedy held my interest and the cast is good, but the writing could have been better. I won't spoil the ending, but it seemed like the writers didn't know how to end it; for me, the ending was unsatisfying. I think you need to be…

I was leary about this as social media is so vapid and narcissistic on its own, let alone a movie about it. I did not laugh once in the first 45 minutes and opted to watch some paint dry, instead.
