Infamous

Bonnie and Clyde for a social media generation could been a really good film. The use of music makes you think it is going be stylish. Sadly it's very dull. The leads look good but can't act. The film fails to get you to connect to or care about them. So you end up not really bothered about what happens to them. Ironically a social media generation will be on their phones and lost interest in a few minutes in and it doesn't get any better. Watch Spring Breakers to see how it should have been done.

Killing people and being a stupid psychotic beach is obviously good thing. Well done,!

My biggest recommendation I can give is if you are thinking of watching this movie go and watch Spree (2020) instead. That movie handles every subject in this movie 10% better. It's so much more satirical and bitting than this movie.

My biggest praise is the soundtrack at the beginning of the movie. The music department really understood the basic premise of the movie more than the actors or the filmmakers. It is full of "neon" dreamlike songs that really capture this youthful, whirlwind, runaway in the night fantasy. Now only if the movie captured that feeling.

The characters are really childlike and really directionless. This is also not helped by the acting. It is really cartoon like.

I did warm more towards the movie when Amber Riley appeared. It got a little better but I still wouldn't recommend it.

1 out of 5 stars.

Infamous is one of the worst films about a young adult girl Arielle (Bella Thorne) who wants to escape her home town and become famous. She meets a guy Dean (Jake Manley) which he is out of prison and on parole. After an incident. She and him go on a robbery spree while posting on social media and getting many followers.

Like a bonnie and clyde idea with using social media to get people to like them. Even when body counts rises. However, these characters are so unlikable. Bella Thorne and Jake Manley did not help create an emotional connection with there characters. Bella facing her moms boyfriend who may or may not stolen her money. Jake having father issues. It was difficult to care for these characters.

The plot is dumb. The acting is horrible. Stupid dialogue. And a very boring ride with these characters that has a soundtrack that may be attracting to a younger female teen crowd.

Oh my dear Lord, this was pretentious tripe.

It's in the Hey, look as sexy as possible while committing a crime garbage that has no relevance or point.

Bella Thorne loves herself some Bella Thorne. This movie was made so she could pout, parade and prance. Some guy was in it, too, but I can't be bothered to know is his name.

They do terrible things while looking cool. That's all that really matters, right? The filter you choose when you post the pictures.

Also. She covers her face when robbing people, but leaves that unique sleeve tattoo uncovered for the world to see. No one is going to recognize her from the videos, though. Because ... lame movie.

I'm mad that Netflix suggested it for me. What did I do to deserve that?

Ugh, horribly lame movie. What a waste of resources.
