I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

At first I simply let this movie just, well, pass me by, that is until I discovered that there was going to be a sequel called 'The Dark Web' and the dark web has always intrigued me. More so, when I discovered that my university actually have the video available for digital download I thought I might actually watch it, if only to determine whether I would want to watch the sequel or not. Well, upon discovering what this film was actually about I'm not all that sure if I'm going to bother with the sequel, if this film is anything to go by. Honestly, I would probably describe this film as being 'The Blair Witch Project' on the internet. Well, not quite, but when I was released I knew that I probably wasn't going to like it all that much namely because I expected that it was little more than a slasher flick except this time the slasher is some unstable person who was unfriended on Facebook. Actually, I probably shouldn't joke about that because some people have become pretty unhinged due to somebody unfriending them on Facebook, but then again that particular website really does mess with your head at times. Anyway, it turned out to be one of those more experimental films, in the the entire film is basically set on somebody's desktop, namely the protagonist Blair. The entire movie is basically a skype conversation between friends, with a few other programs being intermittently used, including a chat program. However, it is more than that because as I mentioned it is also a horror film, so basically there happens to be this unknown person on their chat channel who also seems to be able to post things on their Facebook accounts, send emails, and basically torment them to a point that they basically all want to kill themselves - you could say that it is the ghost in the machine. Sure, it is pretty cheesy in that, but the idea was sure to come about sooner or later - making a movie (and they are usually always horror movies) simply with people interacting through their computers. Personally, it isn't a bad idea, except that as one commentator pointed out, if they wanted to watch people screaming their heads off over skype for an hour and a half, then they can just create their own group chats and do it themselves without having to watch this film. I probably agree, but then again I have much better things to do than spend an hour and a half on Skype screaming my head off. But there is something going on behind the scenes as well - sort of. The story is based on this girl who killed herself after a video was basically posted to the web. She was at this party, and had become pretty wasted, and her friends, if you would call them that, decided to share this with the world, of course urging her to kill herself as well. Look, sadly that is actually a part of growing up, and it is one of the really nasty things about the creation of the web. Honestly, not a day goes by without some celebrity being struck down because some thoughtless tweet from years ago has emerged. Here, this isn't even her doing it, but rather her friends. In a way it seems that you really have to be careful these days, just in case people get photos of you, and the start sharing them with the world. I could say that this film does deal with the issue of cyber bullying, but it also shows us how easy it is for hidden secrets suddenly to be exposed to the world, and how people can literally drive you from the web based on what has been revealed. There has even been stories of people who have had this happen to them and they literally cannot show their face in public again. Sure, there is this idea that people generally use social media to market their good sides, but what we must remember is that we do need to be cautious as to what we place on the web because it can seriously come back to bite us.

I hate this movie. I really hate this movie. It's brainless, utterly stupid and because it made such a large profit we're going to be seeing lots of it from here on in. The premise is decent in that you have a group of friends on a Skype call on the anniversary of one of their friend's suicide and strange things start to happen. The friend, who is definitely dead, joins their chat and even starts sending messages to them in Facebook. Like I said it's a decent enough setup. The problem comes with how they decided to put it all together.All of the action comes from one girl's POV on her computer and we see everybody else on facecam. So we're stuck in one location for the entire movie. What's more this was actually shot with these kids in front of GoPro cameras in the same house but in different rooms which is why you have one person literally doing her part of the chat from the laundry room. Yeah. We're expected to think that these people carry their powered on and connected to the internet laptops around with them everywhere just in case they get an invitation to a Skype call. An invitation I might add that three of them never got and just appeared on the chat between a girl and her boyfriend who were engaged in a little cyber foreplay. They all talk and they bicker like children. It's quite annoying actually. But then maybe it was to make them as unlikable as possible. At least that's my guess. The facecams glitch out to a ridiculous degree but I guess that was done to hide some of the cuts. Although from one shot literally to the next people change position and are away from the webcam when they're still somehow typing. How does that work again? It would have been interesting had they used the glitching a little more effectively. Like maybe, just for a moment, one of the character glitches out and their face is all distorted. Or there's a flash from behind them of a shadow or figure or even just a pair of eyes or something to show that this isn't a normal Skype call. Don't call attention to it, just have it there to give us a sense of unease. The way that these kids are then killed is then telegraphed very early on. If you see them with something in their hand, or close by, that will be how they die. So it makes sense that the fat kid has a blender there at his desk so later on when he gets possessed he uses that to blend his hand followed by his neck. Or the girl using the curling iron in the first scene winds up dying when it's thrust down her throat.And in the end the last one to survive is actually the one that is responsible for the death of their friend. What a shocker and follow it up with a jump scare. The end.This is a stupid movie.

Unfriended is the new horror film(new enough),two years ago,that was a film all captured on the screen of a teenage girl who's best friend committed suicide two years back today and while chatting to her friend on Skype,Laura returns as a vengeful ghost to expose all there secrets. So,this film I enjoyed,not many people probably enjoyed it but it got an alright score on Rotten Tomatoes. This guy,whoever he is,is not really the guy,he slows the movie down and most of the time,the camera just goes static and you can't see what's happening other then people talking like "I got the weed for you,that's cool,get balcony seats,f*cking b*tch,who's he,WHAT THE F*CK BLAIRE!!!??'. The ending to the film,now,that's what really annoyed me,the ending to Unfriended,could be one of the worst endings ever,in the end,Blair lets Laura kill her boyfriend and then Laura threatens to kill her and when she leaves the group after everyone dies,Blaire falls over only for a predictable jump scare;Laura! Jumps out and,boom! That ending was like something from the god damn Paranormal Activity movie,so,basically,Unfriended is a really good film,nothing of my favourites,but a few distractions and glitches in the film,makes it nothing at all special!

The ending is so retarded like really jump scare? On the bright side the death scene is good. Undevelope story man that's the point where Blumhouse starting to suck. Yeah sure they release good flicks but still. This is the type of film I forgot to review until I saw a video relate to terrible flicks like this. The found footage type of film might suck like it depends what company it is. This film needs to be forgotten I think it did I don't now. Avoid this film as fast as you can.Rating: 3.5/10
