Too much of everything
Nice effects though.
Good concept, poorly executed.
This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
View MoreI was almost tempted to rate this movie a ten ironically, but after re-watching, I just can't. This truly is the greatest comedy I've ever seen. Shame it was unintentional. From lines like "Too gay to lift." to the infamous "I can't get the cap off!", the movie has so many moments of unintentional comedy that you'd swear it was actually an ironic comedy poking fun at these types of movies. But alas, it is attempting to be serious with its message. I suggest you watch YMS' review of the film before ever watching it, and even then, go in drunk and ready to just have a good laugh.
View MoreI'm rating this a one for being unrealistic, very predictable and overall a very bad movie, by far not the worst, but very insulting. However, if you put all that aside, this is honestly one of the best 'So bad it's good' movies. Multiple moments in the film had me in hysterics with how they where executed, if I was basing my rating off of this being a funny film, it would get a solid nine. Overall, terrible and very inaccurate which culminates in a hillarious mess.
View MoreThis movie shows a problem that really exists - girls abuse each other on Internet social media. They think they can say and do anything they want and nobody will punish them. But this movie is very similar to another (slightly older) movie: "Odd Girl Out". Probably some movie producer watched "Odd Girl Out" and had a "brilliant" idea that he can produce the same movie and call it "Cyberbully". "Odd Girl Out" movie is better, the whole story fits together better, and the girls perform better. Also the mother of the victim girl is more supportive in "Odd Girl Out" movie - It's important to show that parents should support a child in such case as much as they can. So if you are about to watch "Cyberbully" I encourage you to watch "Odd Girl Out" instead.
View MoreThis is one of those odd situations where the acting is fine. On Emily Osment's part it is absolutely superb. She is incredible and sells it better than most anyone else ever could. The problem is that the writing is absolutely horrendous on so many levels. The filmmakers' approach is cheesy, and even the few plot twists that don't give themselves away within the first few minutes still manage to be groan inducing. Also, the movie spends far more time blaming technology than the actual bullies, which is utterly stupid, and uncomfortably reminiscent of victim blaming in some instances. The best compliment I know how to give Emily Osment is that she actually brings some life and emotion into an otherwise worthless script that reads like it was shot more as poor in-school propaganda (isn't it all) than a movie with actual entertainment or emotional value. The last half hour or so, most everything after the big climax and the subsequent hospital scene, is so bad that forcing people to watch it should just about be considered bullying.
