Iowa J @Joey9080 Jun 14 This was a good movie, but the focus on the computer was annoying. The plot was good, the twist at the end was good, but all the typing and references took away from the story. See more Timothy S. @TJSubject Jun 13 Searching is ABSOLUTELY what I want outta a movie! Suspense, thriller, mystery, making you think the whole damn time from start to finish. It keeps you locked in every second, no wasted scenes, no filler, no nonsense. Every click, every message, every screen matters. You’re not just watching the movie, you’re IN it trying to solve it piece by piece like a real investigation unfolding in real time. Ok ok I get it, it’s not some huge old-school theatrical blockbuster with massive action scenes, but for what it is, it hits PERFECT. The way it builds tension through phones, computers, webcams, and online life is genius. It turns everyday tech into pure suspense. It shouldn’t work this well… but it does. If you like thrillers that actually make your brain work, keep you guessing nonstop, and pull you deeper as it goes, WATCH THIS MOVIE. Don’t overthink it—just hit play and enjoy the ride. 10/10. No debate. Great movie. See more Endrit S. @RT84140605 Jun 12 Points for sentimental value. Other than that, it was very unrealistic given the circumstances, the acting was pretty poor given the emotional plot, and I didn’t like that the movie was seen entirely through cameras.

The ONLY thing this movie is good for is showing how fake people are online and what they’ll do for attention. Awful acting. 🙄 I can’t believe this movie didn’t go straight to dvd 😂 Debra Messing is dreadful. See more Timothy P @timop1919 May 2 John Cho is a terrible actor. If you can get past how awful he is, there is a suspenseful movie here. But he sucks. With a different lead actor, 4 stars. See more Chris D @ChrisMark Apr 13 Clunky expositional moments aside, not terrible. Awkwardly realised around an hour in that I’d already seen it.. Well filmed by using FaceTime/CCTV/nanny cams etc, kept it flowing. There were a number of logic leaps that didn’t quite work, but overall not a bad way to spend your time. Also a lovely throwback to when Windows was a lot easier to navigate. And a reminder that, even in 2017/2018, the internet was the cesspit it remains to this day. See more Read all reviews
