All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
View MoreThe tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

As I watched this movie, I started thinking, this plot looks familiar. It was "Swim Fan" all over again but not nearly as good, just a slightly different premise. SPOILERSMaybe I've seen too many crime shows, but as I was watching, I also thought the plot holes were pretty big. The guy could get a restraining order against the crazy girl, he had a phone record for proof showing her escalation and they could just look at her phone and her house to see just how crazy she was. Go watch "Death Note" on Netflix instead.
View MoreAnd of course it's not a film, it's a video and of course it was never played in any theatre because theatre owners won't want patrons setting their cinemas on fire. I mean, it doesn't take a genus to realize how bad a movie has to be when if when you sort for the BEST review on IMDb, the very first one that comes up says don't waste your time and that it is simply a piece of trash! That's a BEST review. All I will add to that is to be really blunt and fair, YOU GOT ME is, needs a NO STAR category. What we have here...is failure.... What's not communicating is, well, EVERYTHING -- the direction, the acting, the gawd-awful insipid characters and the stolen story-line is all so cliché that you can explain to your fellow viewers what is going to happen 5 minutes before it does. Nothing here you haven't seen before many, many times. This is nothing more than a FATAL ATTRACTION and a PLAY MISTY FOR ME rip-off, without the brilliant acting, without a master director at the helm, but instead, one so incompetent that you wonder if he was on the set at all. And of course this has a screenplay that has an exposition so convoluted going nowhere for what seems like hours (can you say painfully BORING?) that one begins to suspect that all the nonsensical rambling thru what the writer, director and all the other over 50 year olds involved with the production must imagine goes on at teen parties -- it's just thrown in to mask the PLAGIARISM of ideas from a dozen other good suspense movies. Whereas the writing and the character development in those other classics was brilliantly crafted, the charters here are reduced in age evidently to appeal to an audience demographic which the producers seem to think are just as stupid as they are. So we are tortured to watch the most formulaic story around uninteresting and annoying people in an excruciating long (or at least it felt long) exposition before the plagiarism got going in earnest, but even that, executed with no skill, no finesse and with nothing at all that would cause an audience to be remotely interested in these people. A character gets poisoned? I say, who cares...poison them the lot of them and roll credits rather than have us suffer any more of these vapid, shallow mid-20 yr olds who are rich, insufferable brats and who we are expected to believe, are still in high school. The high school "girls" are painted with whorish makeup and wear dresses so seriously skimpy that they could easily be mistaken for prostitutes trolling for johns on 8th Avenue. At one point the suspense (the ONLY suspense in this dog) was wondering if we were going to see a mammary flop out of her dress. And just to prove that we have here a director who hasn't a clue how to move a story along, there isn't more than 2 or 3 minutes that go by in ANY SCENE where he doesn't fad in background music to drone on practically non-stop. He can't get anything interesting on the screen so like any mediocre hack, he covers everything with background music that is as vapid as the characters it's playing under. Wanna see a REAL suspense movie about a woman scorned? Rent FATAL ATTRACTION or PLAY MISTY FOR ME -- they are so good you can watch them again and again. Treat yourself to one of those classics and SAVE YOURSELF!! Save yourself from losing 2 hours of your life on this garbage.
View MoreWhy didn't Tyler just call the police? WTF is up with Bella Thorne? She cannot act and has the same bitchy psycho mean girl role in every movie lol. I don't understand why the ending monologue by Tyler was about love. Clearly Holly's problem wasn't that she "loves too much". She straight up has mental health problems and it was barely discussed in the movie.
View MoreA great Netflix original film. While it's cliché and predictable, I was really impressed with the visual effects that gave it such a surreal feeling. While the acting was sub-par, it had a very well-rounded cast that delivered when needed. And Bella Thorne made a perfect psychotic villain.
