We may not always be able to escape the technological hell of our modern lives, but at least films like this try to assemble something exciting out of their brain-numbing mundanity.

Mr. Corrigan not only directs with verve, but he and his co-writer Hope Elliott Kemp also find sly ways to say things without saying them.

By putting us inside the internet, Corrigan makes their insular world feel uncomfortably close to ours.

This is a film for people who have a bone to pick with a society that tells them the wealthy should be worshipped and that they should just accept their own powerlessness.

7/10

Corrigan approaches his film's many user interfaces with a show-don't-tell philosophy. Every click, every keystroke, is treated like an opportunity to reveal personality.

What a masterpiece. I appreciate Curry Barker’s nods to Ti West and Ari Aster.

we are just watching a bunch of online lads jumping down the rabbit hole of don heard. Interesting to see a non horror webcam only film and yet the main guy is very brave with no sense of repercussions. Fantastic visual markups and edits to hide copyright, though every action just happens instantly somehow.

Innovative, exciting. But be prepared for an intense, at times sensory overload of computer sounds and fast reading of emails. Still worth the watch.

Unlike anything I’ve watched for a while! It almost feels more like an immersive experience than a movie with the way it’s been edited and the pacing. I seriously loved it, 2 hours flew by and I was gripped at every moment. It’s a very realistic film too, my friends who work in tech said it could almost be a true story
