In three stories in the movie, it's a very successful story. I was scared watching the movie.

PROS: The best part apart about this film was the acting. Each and every character went above and beyond what I could have ever expected for this film. The actors in DISCONNECT are raw and talented. You felt sad when they felt sad, you felt scared when they felt scared, you felt powerless when they felt powerless. Overall, it was just a combination of a director knowing what he wanted and actors knowing how to give it to him. Another great part of the movie was the build up in tension. Every single plot line in the story came crashing down in a ball of fire. There was no short comings when it came to the mass intensity at the end. You're breath got taken away, and just when you were about to get it back it just got stolen away again. CONS: The number one thing that irritated me about this movie was the in completion of the overall plot. I disliked that there wasn't a falling action in this movie, and not only that, but there wasn't a falling action for any of the plots. Everything was abrupt, and not in a good way. This issue led to a greater issue about the consistency of the plot. There was just too much happening for there to be such little bits of clarity that were there. You ended up getting attached to the certain characters, you cared, then all of a sudden they get ripped away from you and you're left there with no real resolution, just an ending.www.chorror.com

Cindy (Paula Patton) and Derek Hull (Alexander Skarsgård) are struggling with the lost of their baby. Cindy gets help online while Derek is closed off. They get financially hacked with their identities stolen. They hire former cop Mike Dixon (Frank Grillo) to investigate and he zeroes in on Stephen Schumacher. Mike's son Jason and his friend Frye are pranksters. They start catfishing classmate Ben Boyd. Ben's parents Rich and Lydia (Jason Bateman, Hope Davis) are not connecting with him. Ambitious TV reporter Nina Dunham (Andrea Riseborough) starts chatting with online sex worker Kyle (Max Thieriot) and meets him to do a story. Kyle is part of a group of young and some underage people working online sex. When the FBI shows up, the media company calls up lawyer Rich Dixon.It's a little bit overdramatic at times. These are harrowing tales of lost privacy and disconnected internet connections. The reporter's story is possibly the weakest. The reporter is not that compelling. The catfishing is probably the most powerful. The movie can be overwrought. It goes for the worst case scenario and the audience can't be surprised by any of the turns. The interconnected nature keeps the story moving. The overall feel does leave a disturbed uncomfortable sense. There are some good actors here doing compelling work.

DISCONNECT is a mature and reflective piece of film-making exploring the impact of the Internet upon the lives of ordinary people. It's one of those films that takes multiple sub-plots involving different characters and weaves them together as the running time progresses, eventually bringing them all together at the climax.It's a surprisingly provocative little movie in which the dark side of being online is explored in some surprisingly explicit moments. The good news is that the cast is rather good and all of the performers are up to the job: Frank Grillo, Paula Patton, Alexander Skarsgard, Max Thieriot, Michael Nyqvist, and Andrea Riseborough all shine in their various parts and their screen time is weighted equally.This is certainly a repulsive film in places, but also an oddly gripping one, and the sheer quality of the production wins through in the end. It's well worth a watch for those interested in seeing how the Internet has become central to the lives of a lot of people on the planet, for better or worse.
