I didn't finish watching. One of those movies you telling yourself things would pick up soon and surprise you, but it kept failing. Not worth it. 2 out of 10 for the effort of shouting the importance of privacy by using a dummy actress annoy the hell out of me. Don't be yourself Emma, I am saying please here.

An interesting movie about the necessity to control everyone in a society more and more attached to the web. On one side the ideal of a perfect democracy and transparency, on the other the abuse of control and violation of privacy. It is a well done movie and an opportunity to think about the world in which we are living, but also the direction that we are taking, sometimes loosing the sense of the reality. Emma Watson is always a great actress, the plot is good, the idea original. I liked it.

Lots of reviews saying it's "shallow" etc... I don't know how people could be so oblivious to the fact that this is the world we're walking into - although I guess I work with these kind of platforms as a profession, so maybe I see more into it than most people.Maybe not "political manipulation", but we're moving into a world where I believe politics will be less important, and the big tech companies like Google and Apple will be running the show a lot more.I was going to give this a 10/10, but then it didn't end properly... It just sort of stopped. So sadly, I feel the writers could have done a far better job in actually finishing the movie off.Very interesting movie though, and probably not too far off what our near future will be like.

It had the futuristic abstraction elements to be a "Black Mirror" episode, though, not a very well written one.Expected it to be a decent movie, but it fell short from every aspect - characters, story, ...
