Phony

I've caught girls filming me. Cameras are so small you can't even get laid without someone sneaky filming you. I feel terrible for this generation it's a sad video recording life.nobody is safe.

I've never left a movie review before, but this movie was so terrible I was compelled to do so to save others from wasting over an hour of their life watching this. The movie actually starts off interesting and showed some promise. That's what kept me watching, to see where it was leading and where it was going. About halfway through the film, it just lost all point, direction, and story and just became a film trying to make a film that just didn't work. I hate to bash a young black man attempting to make a film (or doing anything positive), but this was just bad and pointless. The movie begins to argue with itself about the movie and never really reaches any solid ground on having a point. Completely directionless, the characters make no sense and the "plot" ends up being some type of "me too" moment that is very weak and meaningless. I'm mad I wasted my time viewing this, and I hope the director finds actual writers who have plot, theme, purpose, and goals in mind when directing his next film. This could have been soo much better than how it turned out to be.

I got a headache near the one hour mark and then turned it off. The movie starts off ok but then gets super confusing and it's literally just people arguing. Don't bother.

Brilliantly acted and nicely placed, Phony keeps viewers entertained with the most unadmirable of protagonists, getting a bit confusing towards the middle, but tying it up with a nice bow at the end.

The first part, where they are showcasing how men basically have to lie about height and other things in order to get dates was spot on with my experiences and others, and I thought it was doing a good job as a social commentary on how honest, sincere and authentic men who are under 5'7" have a terrible time dating.

Then it morphed into something completely different and became woke. And became progressively more woke until the final second. If it was a satire of wokeism, it kinda worked.
