Don't Hang Up

When we look at what the characters did, it seems like they deserved what happened to them, but this situation is presented to us in such a way that we almost feel sorry for them. Both actors try to be believable. The directors' shots are successful and create tension, although not very surprising. It may have some boring and missing parts, but it can be said to be a good production among productions with social media content. It must not have been easy to film the movie with two people, but we can say that they succeeded in doing so, at least partially. Depending on the story, the ending could have been more interesting.

id recommend this movie for the ending, some what predictable, and somewhat not, ultimately rewarding. i mean, its touching on something millennials are literally making profitable lifestyles out of... who hasn't binge watched prank videos on youtube for hours before. this movie depicts a watch worthy result of one gone too far.

I read the plot first before watch the whole movie. Then, I get interested and then I watched the whole movie. First 15 minutes was okay for me for the story, two boys prank a lot of people with terrible jokes. By the time the antagonist play the role, I intentionally started to feel like "it is a bit exaggerated". It doesn't make sense that the protagonist knows every corner, every single thing the two boys did. It could make a sense if this film tells us the story behind it how the antagonist set all the cameras, how he get into those two boys' life, house, and makes an acceptable rapprochement. The good thing is the ending is not disappointed and makes sense yet I'm not that satisfied with the sense of its technology in this movie (it's like the murderer is a god. Knows everything).

Don't Hang Up, did remind me of some stuff seen in the early eighties. Could be a title of that era, but it isn't because it's all about the social media and what it could do. There are already a few flicks out about the social media about being unfriended and things go wrong, let this one be a revenge flick about doing pranks on social media and one of them gone wrong.

The way it was shot was really nice, doing effects like going through keyholes and windows with the camera so on that part it was okay. And the score did add towards the creepiness of this flick but of course it isn't all that good. It did remind me a lot of Saw somehow and it all predictable. You know towards the end who is going to kill who. In fact there are so many scene's that are predictable but still you want to see the ending. Even as you seen it in other home invasion flicks. Nothing is original but a big hurray to the director and writers. They did a good job because it didn't bothered me at all. Good entertainment and the red stuff is out there.

A nice flick to start off the Halloween night and it will do at many events.

There's not a good guy on this movie so you really don't care much for the teenagers getting targeted by the mysterious man.

You do feel bad about the collateral damage though.

One of the main characters tries to redeem himself by acting morally to try to solve the situation which is nice to see but ultimately it's kinda too late and you don't actually have sympathy for what he's trying to accomplish.

The acting was poor.

That being said, the plot is interesting and well executed.

The characters acted smart which was a breath of fresh air among the average horror movies victims.

The movie got me interested about what was going to happen next and who was going to win that battle and survive.

Ultimately I enjoyed the watch and the ending was satisfactory.

It's definitely better than the fat majority of "horror" movies available on streaming platforms and it deserves a better rating on IMDB.
