Sometimes you need a super cheesy movie. This movie was incredibly predictable but honestly we all need a movie like this sometimes. It shows cyber bullying, what popularity can do, teenage parties, and dogs.

It's your regular over the top, run of the mill young people movie. It tries very hard to be Mean Girls 2017 edition, and it fails spectacularly.

There is some warmth in it, but not enough to buy it. It's like a TV- movie about (cyber)bullying that also wants to be a comedy. The balance is off.

The actors aren't bad, but also not fantastic. It was OK,fine - but that was all it was.

It was so cringe I had to pause and contain myself at times. Terrible movie.

#REALITYHIGH, while predictable in every single way, is a surprisingly quaint and endearing high school drama starring Nesta Cooper as Dani Barnes-a young black girl whose bullied in grade school, which results in her banishing herself from social media. Flashforward to high school and she is the awkward geek girl that exists in real life but surprisingly seems to annoy this generation of movie geeks who feel they are being represented unfairly. To that, I say, "Shut-up! Be a geek and be proud!"

Dani's character is not nuanced in any way-her role is a carbon copy of any number of pretty geek girls seen throughout film history who are just one make-over away from underappreciated darling to video vixen. Dani just happens to be caramel colored supposedly ugly-duckling who happens to be pretty. So black audiences are treated to a rare treat: a good, young black male with good intentions towards the protagonists. Netflix, what are you doing? How dare you do something positive in the name of diversity. Okay, I'm being facetious to make a point: it is nice to see black kids shown in a light that's not tragic, demeaning, or violent. So for that alone, I was willing to give it a try.

As the movie progresses, it hits all the right plot points, and the characters are relatively good-natured, except the antagonist-Alexa: the narcissistic social media star that ruined Dani's childhood. When Alexa's ex-boyfriend, Cameron (played by the charming Keith Powers) starts dating Dani, it sets Dani and Alexa on an inevitable collision course. Now, doesn't that play into the trope of girls fighting one another over a guy? Sure it does. Does that happen in real life? Hell yeah! So, what are crying about people? Lighten up. #REALITYHIGH delivers a wholesome love story about two decent kids trying to navigate a vicious, social media culture. The same culture that's trashing this movie on IMDB as if it were ever trying to be anything more than a fluffy high school film.

#REALITYHIGH suffers from some choppy transitions scenes, and a lack of onscreen time for her bratty sister Taylor, but it's not enough to hamper the movie in any kind of way. If anything, the on-screen chemistry of Nesta Cooper and Keith Powers make this movie a pleasure to watch and left me hoping to see more of these young actors in the future.

I literally just made an account to write this review because this film was so bad. The story line is predictable, it is filmed like a commercial and just not authentic at all. Even the characters are so boring. Just another nerdy, behaved protagonist who gets bullied from the mean girls of high school. WHY Netflix? WHY?

Best teen movie I've seen for a long time. Don't listen to the crap reviews watch movie for yourself. Was far better than expected

Corny, but not in a funny or good way. Predictable with a terrible story line and annoyingly clique characters. Time I am never going to get back. The best part of the whole movie was the cute little sister, but unfortunately she wasn't in it much. I literally had one 5 second laugh in the whole movie.

This movie was the cutest. I was apprehensive about watching since I could not see previous reviews. Perfect for a Sunday morning in bed.I am almost 50 and enjoyed this film. Nothing vulgar or violent. Just a cute movie about a young lady, her dog and love. It looks like sometimes good girls do win.

This movie brings out the real social media world infront of us. What a great way to review our online way of living intertwined with the real us in real world. LoI! Soooo interesting and exciting! Another damn thing about the movie is the way Dani's family is so encouraging and welcoming about her social life. Like i can't figure out a father who's concerned about my wellbeing after online trend gone wrong. Wow! Modern family setting i guess. Not forgetting the way main characters revolve around the love triangle. Incredible! But i think i missed Dani's mother acting like a real mother. I mean her father way too concerned about her daughter than her.

I think the director was high.

All the time.

Even when casting for the main roles.

I mean.

Cliche teen movies will forever stay the same. But this. This was written, filmed and directed while high on weed. No doubt.

The most basic film I've ever watched this year. If you wanna watch this film when you are bored, then you are going to be double bored. The story is so predictable that I didn't need to see the end, because it's like some various teenage films that are good for TV but not for a streaming service like Netflix, I was really disappointed with the acting.

I really enjoyed this movie! It's relatable but seeing as I don't go out I feel this would be something that would happen if I were to go out, which would be the awkwardness of being around someone you like and awkwardness in general that I possess. It's a really great movie!

This "MOVIE" is movie is so bad I created an IMDb account just to rate it. It's plain boring , over acted, unnecessary , and just plainly bad. Don't waste your time.

Who thought this movie was a good idea in 2017?? I mean, how many times has this kind of storyline been done not just in movies but in TV shows, books, etc.?? I just couldn't take it seriously at all and I hope that whoever else watches this movie has enough sense not to either (& especially if you're a kid or teen...for the love of God do not let movies like these - or any for that matter - tell you how your high school experience is/isn't supposed to be)

Edit: I just realized that Dani "I'm not like the other girls" Barnes' friend who's supposed to play the quintessential sidekick who gets friendzoned for the popular jock is wearing a fedora...a FEDORA. If the person who wrote this movie sees this (and i mean this in the nicest way) please re-evaluate your life choices. Do it for the kids.

SO I was worried about watching this because sometimes movies with a designated bad girl are very frustrating and infuriating, but this was great. I think it really did a good job representing the millennial generation. The main character was so adorable and so was her romantic counterpart, both were completely unproblematic individuals and it was fun to root for them. I liked how they didn't show the male characters as stereotypical douchebags like they usually do. Yes some things were kind of cliché and corny but thats inevitable with chick flicks, overall it was well executed. I gave it a 10 mainly because I felt the score it has now is really unfair. Really it probably should be a 9 because 10 should be saved for more life changing movies. Anyway I have never wrote a review before but I always read reviews before watching movies, this time I watched the movie first then checked out the reviews and saw it only had 5 stars. I thought, how unfair! I may have been kept from this wonderful movie if I had seen the reviews first. So I want to prevent that from happening to other people.

My girlfriend turned this on netflix and its the most boring cringiest moment in my life

This film tells the story of a nice girl in school, who is bullied by the most beautiful but shallow girl in school.

It has a good story because it is actually quite sad to see how she changes in the film. It is a film that teenagers can relate to.

I don't watch Netflix that much, just from time to time. And now that the occasion happened, I can say that I'm impressed by this movie. Not super impressed, but pretty impressed. The acting seemed natural, the scenes were "dope" and... that's it. I thought that it would be stunning only by the visual effects, but I was wrong this. It got something more than this. Yet, it is just Netflix. You can't "enjoy", just "chill".
