The story centers around two teenage boys Mark (Jamie Blackley) and John (Toby Regby). In the beginning of the film we learn that Mark is building an online relationship with Rachel (Jaime Winstone) in an open chat room for quite some time, while Mark delves deeper into the relationship he soon becomes introduced to others in the chat room as well whom include Kevin (Mingus Johnston), Rachel's abusive boyfriend and Janet (Liz White) who claims to be an MI5 agent. Upon Rachel's request Mark also befriends John, Rachel's younger brother and who Mark shares a class with. The two boys start getting drawn into this world of online chat rooms, which eventually leads to one stabbing the other. The audience is left with the question as too why and this is what Detective Inspector Sarah Clayton (Joanne Froggatt) is also trying to figure out through out the film. While she unravels the mystery of what led up to the incident, the evidence brings to light that Mark wasn't acting alone and that he was instructed to carry out an 'order'.

What really drives the film is the two actors Jamie Blackley as Mark was perfect for the role as the athletic popular jock as so was Toby Regbo as the awkward teenager that everyone at school picked on. The Movie plays up Marks fascination with his online relationships and the complications that come from it, you start seeing how much of an unhealthy effect it is having on his life outside of the internet and in today's generation i feel like in some sense some people can maybe relate too it. I loved the direction it was going and the pacing was good. To some it might start of slow but it works well with this type of film. The mystery elements adds to it and the atmosphere is nicely maintained til the end of the movie. Those unfamiliar with the story may appreciate the twists and those familiar will just need to be reminded it is loosely based on the true story but I for one was satisfied with the final product.

Overall I believe this movie is worth a watch if your looking for a mystery, drama, thriller, and a bit of a coming of age story.

I almost did not watch this. The story was slow to develop and I was not comfortable with the opening scenes. At the end I felt an emotional impact from the story and saw then how everything that preceded built up to the climax. Turns out to be a good story of youthful male bonding and a plausible story of a series of events misleading the innocent and gullible (Mark). A good story always makes the effort of watching thru an otherwise uninspired scenery (low budget?), low suspense, not a lot of action or Hollywood style attention grabbing scenes. A Hollywood movie could never get away with producing a movie just built on the story. Toby Regbo (John) did some affective emotional scenes, facial expressions were right on.

Uwantme2killhim? strikes me as a film that a lot of people would miss out on seeing because the title is absolutely ridiculous. It makes sense when you watch it but from the outside looking in it doesn't sound very catchy.

I watched it just recently and it turned out to be a lot better than expected. Great thriller with plenty of twists and turns that really gets you thinking. As I was watching it I just couldn't believe this could be true, so I was shocked when I found out its based on a true story. It's quite unbelievable really.

Its all about trust in friendships and how we are led to believe things if we are easily influenced. The cast all done a brilliant job, I really couldn't work out which characters were genuine and which ones were not.

Will Mark do everything someone online is telling him to do? I'd recommend this film to everyone, just don't read too much about it before watching as you may spoil a great film.

9/10 – One of the best British films I've seen for a while, along with Wild Bill.

A real gritty British film , slow moving but that is the point , this is not a story about fast paced action, but about relationships in a modern world where physically seeing someone is often not reality.

Moving between scenes you do have to pay attention but this film achieves this really well and the direction is excellent. Our characters are built up gradually throughout the film and you begin to like parts of them , whilst becoming annoyed about some of their characteristics during other scenes.

You will think you know what is going on and I do enjoy second guessing these types of films , but this comes straight out of left field and I genuinely believe you won't see it coming.

Do watch the whole film , it is very good.

After a fairly slow start, this film opens up into a stylish, pretty slick thriller, it does have some intense, dramatic scenes.

The acting ranges from decent to excellent, the standout of course is Joanne Froggatt, she never disappoints.

It's funny how technology changes so quickly, that's about the only thing that dates the film a little, the story is fresh.

Not a film I'd rush to watch again, but as a one off viewing, I would very much recommend it. 7/10.
