Very disappointing...

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

For having a relatively low budget, the film's style and overall art direction are immensely impressive.

This was an absolute crap. Don't get me wrong, Maisie Williams' acting is on point. But wow this script is bad.Now I just want to be a cyberbully for some reason. This movie depicts normal circle-jerking on the internet as cyberbullying and totally missed what it means to "don't feed the troll" (ironic, isn't it). The only good part about it was the ending when she finally closed the computer.I liked the format. Only one character on screen for the most time wasn't that bad, could have been great without the awful story behind it.The movie was slow and the plot forced. I hope I'm the first one to criticize it like that and that an "har-har-cker" will force me to admit my deeds, overdose and get my life destroyed.God, that was awful.

See, indie movies fall under two categories: artsy, preachy, and empty or interesting, cool and fulfilling. Cyberbully is under the second category. See the reason is because this movie actually understands the issue its addressing unlike the other Cyberbullying movie that I can't stand, and not only that but the entire movie is set inside one room, with one actress: Maisie Williams, who gives a fantastic performance! Gripping, interesting, and an overall good film, and best of all shines a good light on its issue. Its a shame Ms Williams is not in more films because she is a great actress, especially here. In this movie, she talks to a computer program for most of it, and its a very impressive performance. So watch it, but you need to be mature to watch it, a boat ton of cursing lies ahead, but also a well written script.

I did find this gripping and compelling, but it did leave me wanting. I liked the claustrophobic atmosphere and blackmail elements, but I didn't find Casey all that sincere in her apologies for trolling. I felt that her defiant attitude was predominant throughout and that her breaking down in tears was out of fear of the pictures being uploaded and not much else. Even with her shock when she Googled the girl who had committed suicide. I found her character to be unlikeable and I didn't sympathise with her. At the end the message seemed to be 'just ignore them', as she decided not to negotiate with the terrorist, as it were. Not taking the bait of an antagonistic hacker who was a troll him/herself despite saying 'I help victims of cyberbullying'. I would've liked more of a 'Phonebooth' -type plot whereby she was taught a real lesson and the 'terrorist' was more righteous in his/her avenging. A twist would've been good too - I actually expected there to be one.

'Cyberbully' is genuinely one of the best short dramas I've seen in channel four in a long time. Knowing that it is based on true stories make it more relatable to audiences of teenagers who are the victims and also speaks to those who ARE the bully whether it be in person or on the web, and this could easily happen to someone one in your school life. It makes you realise that anything posted on the internet can last a life time and that kids should consider and be responsible for what they post or say online as it could end up wreaking someone's life. Maisie Williams who plays Casey, gives an amazing performance as the one off drama is essentially based around her character in her own bedroom, she gives layers to her character and manages to hold her own. She is a rising star for me and will watch more of her work in the future.The most chilling thing for me is that a hacker manages to get in to her computer which is a warning that it could happen to you and makes me think about how easily it could happen of I was ever careless online. I would recommend this to future parents to help them understand he risks and to make sure their children use the internet safely.
