Review of Unfriended (2014) by Brushedred — 18 Apr 2015

Wow! This movie is absolutely incredible! It was fun and fascinating. The whole movie is done in real time. The characters are intriguing and the suspense builds from beginning to end. This movie has its flaws, therefore it's not a 9 or a 10 but for what it is, it does well.

It's obviously an anti-bulling message. The whole movie is basically sharing the screen with the protagonist. You see her messages, ims, skypes, etc. That was a very neat concept and I praise that aspect infinitely.

However, the cliches are also very obvious and the killer talks in the way that a mother would text, which kinda took away from the zing. However, the story was neat and the acting was awesome! There is also a lot of comedy thrown into the mix.

It's a little bit of everything. You'll laugh your butt off and you'll also feel the dread building. Personally I'll say this is a very innovative horror movie and could've totally been a 10 but fell into too many cliches.

See it if you're interested; I'm sure you'll enjoy. But it kinda sucks to know how great of a movie this could've been had it not done some of the things it did. The ending is absolutely incredible; it is one of the greatest endings to a horror movie I've seen in a while.
