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.

'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!

This movie is based off a young women who is lonely and depressed. And to gain the attention she faked being in a horrible terrorist attack for social media followers.

My title says it all. We are the people outside the main character's life. And watching this movie and reading other reviews it seems I hit it spot on where everyone played into this "hatred". But how far is too far for someone who does something like this? Do we really have a blood lust. My worry through out the movie was the main character hurting herself. And it stuck all the way to the end. To me the ending left a cliff hanger where I still worried that Danni would not hurt herself.

Because it is too easy to cast stones, and jump on a hate wagon. But mostly everyone's review I have seen shows we as a whole refuse to acknowledge the real problem with Danni, which is she suffers from depression and loneliness and when she got a taste through her lie, it came back and hit her even harder.

I did not grow to hate this woman like the movie said I would do. I started feeling really bad for her, I felt once the truth came out everyone was too extreme with what they feel their justice is. And this movie speaks a lot of truth about how not just Danni did a horrible thing, we feed off it and want to give in to the evil inside of us and call it justice.

I feel the story could have been a little better written. I did end up doom scrolling on my phone through boring parts that did not give details or show character development. But I do feel this could have been written better not to make you hate someone for doing a horrible thing, but learn about yourself and society about how we react to horrible things others do. And maybe learn to grow empathy towards everyone not just the ones we feel deserve it.

It was very well directed, and the dark-comedy satirical writing hit some good notes by actress turned newb writer and director Quinn Shephard. Although the pacing was decent, the 100 min runtime could've used some tweaking to cut out at least 10 mins. Casting and performances were all great, but the standout performance goes to the lovely Zoey Deutch, who stole every scene she was in. It's a fun and funny one-time watch with some actual laugh out loud moments, and a few heart-wrenching ones, when the power of social media seriously affects peoples lives. It gets a heart and seven thumbs-up emojis from me.

I think they unexpectedly gave the middle finger to their own generation with this flick. It was an interesting window into teen and young adult life today just as much as Fast Times or Breakfast Club were our generations mirror on the Zeitgeist at that time.

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.........

This entire movie is a cringe fest but in a good way. However, I couldn't help but wonder that this idea could have been fleshed out more or executed better.

I really love stories about what it means to be a good person, and the mistakes that people make and how easy you can hurt someone profoundly and repeatedly if you're a bad person like Danni is in this film. And especially if it involves social media.

Danni is a stereotypical highly privileged white girl who will do anything for the attention of flashy, internet famous superficial douches, failing to impress her boss and has no friends, because she is incredibly out of touch, needy and quirky in a really irritating way.

And she gets far worse when a lie that she tells online spins accidentally out of control.

I will say that Danni shouldn't really take all the blame for what she does. The culture around internet famous people surrounding tragic events or bullying incredibly misplaced and toxic, and talk show hosts and social media sites treating them like celebs 100% adds fuel to the fire of people's ever growing egos, or pushes people to act out in heinous ways. Much like in the film, Nightcrawler, Jake Gyllenhaal's character becomes a full on monster because of the competitive nature of the job - which will give him fame and satisfaction.

This could have been much better, but it honestly isn't anything special. Much like many personas of annoying privileged people online, it's only surface level stuff.

If you want a snapshot of where society is going this is it. Pointless and humorless, self-hating crap. This is where we are. I hope people wake up and realize that this culture leads nowhere. Victimhood, hate, and rage with no redemption or forgiveness. Just destruction.

I actually really enjoyed this movie..I really felt for the characters. I just wish there would have been some more of a resolve for the ending. The actress who played Rowan did a fantastic job, and a lot of her rallies to end gun violence really brought tears to my eyes. I think the friendship between Danni and Rowan was very believable, and the movie flowed really well.

This is one of those super empty movies that you forget 2 days later that you even watched it. The acting is mostly but the story could have been sooo much more. Instead, it felt cringey like 90% of the time. It definitely had so much potential. Things got real bad for her in the end, I get it, but honestly they should have gotten way worse. I feel like we barely just scratched the surface of how bad things could have gotten for her.

I do think that the story was very original. We really do live in a social media consumed world. Influencers are portrayed as the vapid empty creatures that they are. But that's also the problem - it's showing all these stereotypes and it's making fun of them but it's doing such a bad job at it that the movie ends up being the butt of the joke. If you're going to make fun of something bad at least do a good job at it. Otherwise you're going to look even worse than the very bad thing you've making fun of. I guess no one told the writers that... Oh, well. Here goes another movie no one will be talking about 2 weeks from now.

Zoey Deutch is Danni, a photo editor at an online magazine who more than anything yearns to be well known and held in high regard by the trendy youth of America. She fakes a visit to Paris but when there is terrorist attack there she pretends she survived this and subsequently gains a phenomenal following. She befriends a school shooting survivor, Rowan, who speaks eloquently in public and slowly Danni realises that her life priorities might need reassessing. However her lies start to catch up with her.

Vicious and rather enjoyable black comedy sticking it to fame in general, social media and the millions who blindly follow whatever they're shown. Deutch is excellent in the lead, often funny and ghastly at the same time, yet still managing somehow to gain our sympathy despite her naivity, selfishness and lack of moral compass.

As "Not Okay" (2022 release; 103 min) opens, the Zoey Deutch character, a twenty-something named Danni, is getting savaged online. We then go the "Two Months Earlier", as Danni is struggling at work, has no friends, and in a folly to try and impress a guy, posts about a (fake) trip to Paris. When a terrorist attack takes place in Paris, Danni decides to claim she was there and survived the attack...

Couple of comments: this is the second film written and directed by actress Quinn Shephard ("Blame"). Here she assesses the high price that comes with misleading everyone about who you are, all because you crave love and attention. The movie comes in 9 chapters (Chapter I: No-one Understands Me, etc.). The best part of the movie is the last third, when Danni is exposed for the fraud that she is. When Danni attends a support group after having been exposed, someone asks Danni "Have you tried making amends?". Danni is startled as this had never even occurred to her. Imagine that! Joey Deutch is cast perfectly as the internet-savvy attention-craving, emotionally hollow character that is Danni. Mia Isaac, whom we just saw recently in "Don't Make Me Go", also shines as Rowan, whose character actually survived violence. All in all, this movie is quite good, and it blows me away that writer-director Quinn Shephard is all of 27 yo. Wow. Well done.

"Not Okay" premiered this weekend on Hulu, and it has garnered a lot of positive buzz (I read a thumbs up review in Friday's New York Times). If you are in the mood for a movie that reflects on the cost of internet success, or simply are a fan of Joey Deutch or Mia Isaac, I'd readily suggest you check this out and draw your own conclusion.

I was very intrigued when I saw the premise of this movie, and couldn't wait to watch it. However, I was immediately disappointed by the poor writing and offensively stereotypical characters. The acting was abysmal without a single redeeming actor, but nothing topped how bad the writing was. Whoever wrote the screenplay obviously has never studied the art of writing, and should have taken a few classes to understand how character development and dialogue works and how people act, speak, and interact with each other in 2022. Or better yet, the writer could have just not written this script.

If nothing else, I hope the writer realizes one day that in order to hold the audience's attention, you must make at least one character likable, preferably your protagonist. Heck, even the "Gang" in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia are likable in their own demented way, and they're all more narcissistic and evil than the main character in this movie. Make your characters likable, and people will watch them. Make them like they are in this movie, and the movie will be turned off before the halfway mark. Because it was.

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.

This could have been a good movie but it misses the mark in just about every way. Within 5 minutes you will know exactly how this movie will play out, and it does. There are no surprises, nothing to get a deeper understanding of our main character. We only know she seeks internet fame like every other under 25 year old you know.

She gets her fame and almost immediately is portrayed as sympathetic. She's really a good person who just made a mistake. It would be far more interesting if they had actually followed through on the premise that she's a selfish entitled brat looking for recognition at any cost. They nod to it but clearly don't want our heroine to look too bad because...I don't know why, it's a copout.

Zoey Deutch is fine. She plays the same person she plays in every movie. The supporting cast includes all the DEI checklist you have come to expect. Of course they are mostly all caricatures. Ultimately there's nothing new to see here.

Just a bad movie that could have been good if you weren't trying to sell your weak minded dangerous ideas about self protection, one day when your forced to give away your home or bank account or heck your life maybe you can beg for a piece of paper and coal to write the movie this could have been.
