Starts off funny but becomes a frustrating exercise in déjà vu for anyone who's graduated from high school or seen a movie.

As delete-worthy as its social media inspirations.

If ever a film demanded to be viewed on a phone, it's this one.

Little more than a feature-length tween sitcom episode, Status Update is not exactly a good movie. However, its script is earnest enough and its cast is endearing enough that it's just a better editor away from being not bad.

Spectrum Culture

This teen comedy with a "be yourself" message is slickly artificial, grinding painfully through extremely well-worn plot mechanics and essentially failing to follow its own message.
