luisriosjr-1 Kirsten Zien gives an Academy Award performance toward the end of the movie when she confronts her mother in the kitchen.
authorb22 I don't understand all the hate that this movie gets. I found the movie very entertaining, and thought I feel Daryl Hannah's acting wasn't the best, it didn't hinder the movie by much. And Kirsten Prout it very talented and attractive. The plot is that high school senior Kat Hardy (Prout), an academically successful student who's class president and recently accepted into Brown university, has her future jeopardized by a hacker who posts inappropriate and insulting things, turning her friends against her. The hacker's actions slowly cause her life to unravel, ultimately causing her to be pulled to the edge of sanity (that's a little extreme, but she does have to take pills for it). The plot is very intriguing and the acting, for the most part, was very good. But the twist at the end (which I won't spoil) is pretty obvious after a while. Here's some more negatives I have: 1. The movie's DVD title. I won't say it, because it spoils the entire movie. If they HAD to release the movie under a new title, they should have chosen the working title, Offline. 2. Daryl Hannah's performance as Kat's mother, Susan, isn't the best. But it isn't the worst, either. This is still a great movie to watch. But I suggest watching it on TV so you don't get it spoiled by the DVD title.
Jesse Boland Starts slow, and kind of creepy, then turns into somewhat of a mystery suspense (almost) thriller. The creepy is Daryl Hannah, yeah she is sure creepy, but I guess that was what they were going for. A good movie with a warning to people that you are never safe, even from those closest to you. Over all this was well acted and I did Enjoy the story. Kristen Prout is really always good. She has that victim look down, but you can easily believe that she is whoever she wants you to. I would recommend this movie to anyone, but mostly parent, and older teens as it really isn't going to be relevant to the youngest generation as this will all have changed by the time they get there. This movie will not be as good in a few years, it just won't be the same types of media, but the story will be timeless, and no matter the media, the story will be able to fit it.
U n The idea that someone could use your over shared personal data in nefarious ways is one that when presented well, can create a nail biting, edge of your seat experience with a poignant and current cultural message.This movie took that premise and confused it by mashing together parts from a bunch of different genres to create a movie without any identity.**SPOILERS IN THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH** It started out well. The characters were familiar, realistic and easy to identify with. Then as the star's life went downhill the realism followed suit. The initial reaction of her BFF was refusal to accept she might not be responsible...?!? Huh?!? This A+, very popular student, elected class president and given a full scholarship to a good college suddenly started doing really nasty things to everyone around her on the internet when she had everything to lose and nothing to gain and everyone's first reaction was to choose not to believe her?!? WTF?!? The final straw was the girlfriend not remembering that it would have been IMPOSSIBLE for the main character to take the photos FROM INSIDE THE CUPBOARD WITH HER BOYFRIEND!?! Even if, suspending disbelief as much as I could, people around her started to think she'd gone off the rails due to stress, this possibility wasn't even hinted at in the movie. As the evidence mounted up the only remaining suspect became so obvious that it irked me further the characters couldn't see it. **END OF SPOILERS**With a better script this could have been an A grade movie with the same budget rather than a TV special.I was very disappointed by this movie which sucked me in with it's opening but if you've got a spare 90 minutes and are very good at suspending your disbelief, it'll pass the time.
