The endless hell of keyboard warriors

Mona 2022-03-20 09:02:10

A rather offbeat thriller. The shooting method is also very special, focusing entirely on the computer desktop, watching the whole film through the first-person perspective, and the sense of substitution is very strong.

The plot of the story is extremely ironic, and a group of friends who seem to have deep friendships sit together to video chat. Ridiculously mocking and discussing others, but completely unaware that everyone hides dark secrets in their hearts. Driven by the fear of the unknown, their selfish side is slowly revealed, and they do all kinds of unlimited things in order to survive. In the end, he became a cocoon and got the punishment he deserved.

The screenwriter takes a film against today's phenomenon of cyberbullying. The limitless language attacks of keyboard warriors are likely to destroy a person's bright future. Born as a human, please be kind.

But the shortcomings of the film are also obvious, that is, the plot is too simple. The development of the whole story is completely in the audience's expectation, and there is no reversal at all. The setting of ghosts asking for their lives is also ridiculous, which greatly reduces the sense of reality that has been built so hard. In short, the depth of the story is not excavated enough, and the bloody level does not reach enough sensory stimulation, which makes the whole movie relatively mediocre.
