... View MoreOk... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Definitely well written and acted. A very insightful look into our 'social' media addictions.Maybe if i find myself in the right mood, i will finish it.

Plaza plays a troubled, unsettling young woman completely possessed by Instagram personalities, both her own & others'. Her unhinged, unraveling turn anchors the film's onslaught of oddly entertaining douche chills. For people concerned about the emotional impact of ubiquitous social media, or anyone who wants to hate-watch some awful millennials, this compelling flick will do the trick.

You weren't it's target audience and had no business watching it from the beginning. God forbid a comedy shake up your perception of the world, or make you feel uncomfortable in your 'safe space'. Go watch whatever bland, middle of the road comedy that everyone is quoting these days.

Cutting out the pre-credits sequence would not only allow us to feel more sympathy for Ingrid, given that it's the only directly violent act we see her perpetrate in the whole film - but it would also keep us more off balance as to how far she's willing to go, once events begin to spiral...As for the ending - isn't that just giving her everything she wants?! Perhaps the point it was making was that nothing can completely disbar somebody from becoming 'famous'... but the optimist in me was hoping for a mini-redemptive arc for Ingrid, and a glimpse that she was on the path toward learning to like herself... Oh, well.
