Falsa influencer

'Not Okay' is a satirical take on influencer culture, and a contemplative, dark comedy about social media personalities, for whom, life revolves around likes, comments, and media attention. For whom, their entire existence relies upon the number of followers they have on their Instagram on TikTok. Being a motivator, and an inspiration for millions of people is not wrong but the harsh fact is, not everybody is truthful, and not everyone represents their 'Real' selves!

'Not Okay' not only sheds some light on those 'pretentious' sections of the crowd, but it also makes us aware of all the lies deceptions, and fabrications perpetrated by such persons. You wouldn't believe, what some people could do to earn some additional 'Likes' on their posts, to gain some 'sympathy' from the audience. They could go to unimaginable lengths to achieve their ambitions, to fulfill their appetite to get 'Famous', to be an Internet Phenomenon!

But the tragedy is, truth never stays hidden, it will eventually come out one day and you have to face severe consequences for your previous actions. Internet may bring people together, may tie us all down by a singular thread but It can also be the 'Unkindest'. The same internet that had brought you limitless stardom could end the very same in seconds. All the things that floated you above, may as well bring you down to the ground at any given moment. And that's the grim reality we all have to accept.

And this movie attempts to showcase just that! With a fairly engaging Screenplay & remarkable performances (by both Zoey Deutch and Mia Isaac) this story acts as a lesson for both these influencers and for the ordinary 'netizens' who get infatuated with all the glitz & glamour of social media but tend to neglect the darker aspects!

I'm in no way suggesting this was a flawless execution, just as always, there are a couple of unquestionable weaknesses but I think this is a movie that everyone needs to watch at least once in their life. Especially for 'Millennials'; I hope they would get to learn a lesson or two.

P. S. Zoey Deutch is criminally underrated, she may not always get her due recognition but man! I have to say, she's one helluva performer!

I don't understand the bad reviews on this film. This film is representing today's society and explaining that most things on social media is fake and how far people are willing to go to get followers.

We are living in a shallow society and it is sad.

This film picks up on the desperation of this generation.

I think Zoey plays this extremely well.

Some people don't realise the down fall and the negative impact that this can have on you and this film shows how a rise and fall can affect you mentally and personally and it really is such ashame for society and this film explains that.........

Obviously, this movie was painful and hateable at first. The main character is awful - they tell you that before it even starts. But by the end you just might feel something. She grows, in more ways than you expect. Give it a chance.

I've stopped watching a lot of movies and shows before finishing them, so I know the temptation. This one is worth finishing.

Not sure about why there's so much hate here. I get why they make a movie like this. It teaches that likes are often lies or bought. Social media is fake. And also that real relationships are deeper when you make real bonds, and not thru social media.

Yes, I don't have to watch every movie that comes my way.

Yes, I am aware that TikTok and similar social media tools are new age media.

No, I don't hate Social Media celebrities, even I find it weird that people who hate them...

But this movie is so bad.

How did it get such high scores? Of course, thanks to the fanbase of actors and actresses.

The tonal transition between the first and second half of the movie is very bad.

There are incessant CUT errors in the movie.

The characters in the movie are very plastic, weird, most of these actors and actresses are active social media users.

The drama in the second half doesn't even make sense because of the overlapping mistakes in the first half.

Those who hate Netflix movies repent when they see Disney+ movies.
