Clearly an AI review. While actual reviews get censored, stuff like this is allowed, even though the rules are explicit in what not to do. I am watching the movie, however, but this review will never see the light of day because rules apply to some and not to others. Seven minutes in and it's so boring, I may fall asleep before I finish this review, but that's no surprise, this is what passes for entertainment in a world filled with mindless regurgitation of unoriginal garbage being force fed to the willing puppets who think that life is attained through a video screen. They're so rebellious in their pursuit of being manipulated like puppets by their robot overlords into doing exactly what they rebel against. By proving their uselessness, they only feed into the system they reject. Mocking something is still promoting it. Here's a lesson about whatever and then they just continue to do it more. Nobody learns from the past. Remember to hit that like button to prove what an anarchist you are.

This is a low budget attempt at a high concept movie. It got me to watch it, and I'm pretty jaded. Plot: a cheerleader/influencer finds herself abducted in a Saw-like situation where she has to make social media content to stay alive. Unfortunately it's a little preachy and UNBELIEVABLY predictable. And I mean everything is predictable. From the first toe removal (with no pain that happens off camera and while she's unconscious) that she never checks, you know that the whole thing is a set up. Also, the lead actress is just too aggressive to be real. I'm not sure what the writer was going for with all the "boys are stupid" statements. I think there were about five of them. Was he portraying the girls who said it as sexist, or was he trying to say that boys are actually stupid. While the concept was good (although executed better in the Saw franchise), the acting was a little wooden, the sound was all over the place and the plot held NO surprises.

Very good film. The plot twist was crazy I genuinely thought sabrina and Jill had died. Very underrated film and definitely worth a watch. I really enjoyed meeting the characters and the scenery of the building was cool. The villain in the story had a really good message and did a good job of sharing it Acting:9/10 Great scenes and the emotional scenes were acted brilliantly Plot twist/Ending:10/10 Most unexpected ending I've ever seen and the plot twist was crazily good. I really enjoyed this and it is worth a watch. The characters are cool and the overall message put out there was don't incredibly.

Kelly (Marie Luciani-Grimaldi) is the head cheerleader dating the QB. She is wearing a red cheerleader's outfit with a pentagram and 666 on it for the Devils. And as we first meet her she is tied to a chair. Her captor's name is Charles (Simon Phillips) who is both polite and abusive. Kelly has over 400,000 online followers and is an "influencer." Her captor discusses the negative aspects of social media and wants her to win her freedom by getting l,000 likes in an hour. This increases upward as Kelly gets more daring in her poses for more likes per time. In order to help persuade her another girl is placed in with her and she is threatened if Kelly can not perform. I immediately like anything that has a blonde cheerleader tied up. After that point, I kept waiting for a climax as the story intensified. The main problem is I had figured things out so there was no surprise ending. They talk about the problems caused by social media but never show them. They just blame those who want their 15 minutes. Potential Guide: F-word. (Cheerleader is a potty mouth). No sex or nudity.

Normally I don't write reviews, but this movie genuinely offended me with how poorly it handled it's own subject matter. The movie ended and the only thing I felt was disgust for the male gaze writing / camera angles, and lack of respect for their "strong female characters". I feel as though the writers for "Deinfluencer" genuinely believed that this is what a strong female should be, but the irony of the film was so jarring I could never take this movie seriously. She was shamed for causing a 6 year old to commit suicide when it wasn't her fault, and shamed for being "tantalizing" and "arousing" when that is the ONLY power the movie gave her. She had to strip for Charles so he could take photos of her to get 10k likes in two hours. She also discussed taking naked photos with whipped cream over her nipples and abused "lesbian" scenes for views. Great and dandy until you remember these plot points were not written or handled by women. They seem to be an excuse to dress up pretty women and make them do things that appeal to the interests of the director. Also, If you are going to make a movie about "likes" and "followers" and Influencer culture, at least do research about algorithms and the CORE of the problem of why women feel they need to pose airbrushed photos and half naked pictures online. They give these women ONE strength in this film, and that was "arousing content sells" and punished the female leads for exactly that. The IRONY of "women are too arousing and its not the REAL them" statement that the film tries to make is COMPLETELY undermined by the amount of upskirt camera shots, use of lesbianism in a purely tantalizing way. As a lesbian this is highly offensive. But the subject matter... Hot sexy cheerleader is an influencer on social media, and an older man who doesn't understand social media kidnaps her with the intention to make her "more humane" or... something? But nothing he does accomplishes that goal. I am not sure what the director was trying to accomplish here. Any time the girls were nice to each other and trying to save one another, the man in the movie, "Charles" would MURDER one of the new girls! I have seen the "punish the influencer" plot thousands of times, and this movie did nothing to make that narrative make sense. Our protagonist "Kelly" is kidnapped, traumatized and made to believe she caused the death of TWO innocent women and had her kidney and toe taken. All the while she is put into stressful situations where she has to find out how to get a certain amount of likes in a ridiculously low amount of time. To no fault of her own, the only thing that works is sex. She is abused beyond belief... and at the end she is THANKFUL for it. In short, the point of the film was mute. Yet another movie about "if you have social media you CAN'T live a NORMAL life." It makes no sense, and I wish these kinds of movies would discuss a healthy balance, or how social media is great for running a business and making your monthly rent by learning the algorithms of each social media platform! But no... social media is bad and women are bad for posting their bodies. It felt like the movie was trying to empower women while also telling them to not use social media. So in short, it's takeaway message seemed to be that men should be allowed to use violent tactics to control women by shaming their use of social media and how they chose to portray their bodies to the public. I was not a fan.
