Brilliant Movie possibly better than Scream 4? SPOILERS


I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. Having watched 'unfriended' not too long ago I was fully expecting a rehashing of the same thing. There are many similarities namely the lead character being called 'Laura' and the use of the 'unfriend' feature not working in both movies, but other than this they were quite different.

I thought the film delivered well on what looked like a very bad trailer 'What do you want' echoing back to Jennifer Love Hewitt's 'What are you waiting for' in 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'. The lead actress delivered well, she looked like a Miley Cyrus/Taissa Farmiga clone, but this only helped her.

Her best friend was badly cast, she looked like a pilled out old whore pushing 40, but gave us a convincing bullet to the head at the end so i'll forgive her that.

The Duff also did well in her smaller role. all delivering not bad performances.
The story line went on a bit too long towards the end, could have cut some dodgey scenes out, as it felt like a 2 hour film but was only 92 minutes, it almost seemed like she would be on the search forever.

I thought the ending was good, though it's hard to believe that the fit sexy Lau Ra would have any difficulties in finding friends, whereas the socially awkward Ma Rina passed well as a sociopathic loner that no one would want as a friend.

feel free to comment me back cheers :)

I couldn't agree more Sydney. I would say though that another thing I found hard to believe is that the Duff had any friends on Facebook at all... maybe one or two other Duffs and family members but other than that she would be pretty much on par with Ma Rina
