edl666 ... the reality is much more weird than this movie.Of course I had to do the research after watching the movie to read about the real case in Vanity Fair (the article can still be found on the internet). Fascinating stuff and much more complicated than the events that are described in this movie. Yes, the filmmakers did a good job converting this internet-drama for the screen, but I can only advice everyone to check out the facts. Much more thrilling than the fictional approach and much more unbelievable.Still a movie to think about for a while.Good actors and a good way to show internet-chats on the screen. I guess that was the hardest part in making this movie. And the choice they made in presenting these chats was well done.
eurograd U Want Me 2 Kill Him is a psychological thriller of the crop of lower budget movies that mix tech savvy young people and computers. A lot of things in this movie happens over an Internet connection, but this is not a 'geek-hacker' plot. The plot is interesting, and there also some complex character development. This is definitively not your regular "pick a list of stock characters" drama movie.However, acting is somehow inconsistent. Not bad, but inconsistent - there are some great intense scenes that are just followed by some instances of really bad acting (which is why I give this movie a 7 instead of 9 score).
st8627 A real gritty British film , slow moving but that is the point , this is not a story about fast paced action, but about relationships in a modern world where physically seeing someone is often not reality. Moving between scenes you do have to pay attention but this film achieves this really well and the direction is excellent. Our characters are built up gradually throughout the film and you begin to like parts of them , whilst becoming annoyed about some of their characteristics during other scenes. You will think you know what is going on and I do enjoy second guessing these types of films , but this comes straight out of left field and I genuinely believe you won't see it coming.Do watch the whole film , it is very good.
emmerindeed I had not read the Vanity Fair article, or had heard anything of this story before I decided to watch this film. I actually watched it by chance with no knowledge of what it would really be about and was immediately sucked in to the story. It has a great pace, but I'm a sucker for quiet, sometimes brooding, films. There are a few twists and the film keeps it interesting by exploring flash backs and fragmented time lines, this was a wise move otherwise the movie could have really fallen flat and come off as slow and boring I feel.The acting is adequate, there will be no Oscars but my attention and suspension of disbelief were held well. I felt myself connecting with the leads, they captured my attention well which is not an easy thing to do so it added to my enjoyment.While this film does have some flaws, I feel that it deserves a solid seven for the experience it delivers and I think it deserves that extra nudge for the fact that it is "based on true events".Interesting to say the least, worth a watch.
