iGirlfriend

Guy invents girlfriend, hilarity ensues. Guy rights the wrong done; learns life lessons in the process. Movie ends.

A classic movie recipe in the 80's with 'Weird Science', in iGirlfriend our story is resurrected using modern day tech: fictional iPhone app vs fictional science.

Plot, acting, direction....I won't even waste any more of your time reviewing iGirlfriend except to say the movie is horrible.

Its not even in the "so bad its good" category - its just bad. Don't waste your time with this.

I don't typically write reviews, and I'm also typically not a fan of the indie or low budget scene, but I was actually quite pleasantly surprised by this flick.

I mostly watched it because the premise sounded interesting, and yes at the start it didn't feel as though it really built relatable background that allowed us to feel drawn into the story.

However, after the first 2/3 way through I actually found myself having a good time, and the scenes near the end (no spoilers, but it was when they started 'tweaking' the new creation), they were actually pretty engaging, funny and enjoyable.

A few nods to decent acting, mostly what you would except for this budget, though a big nod out to some great acting by Kelsey Pribilski (Lilly). Elvis Clark as Bash was quite decent, as were most of the female cast, though tbh they had more of a supporting role so easier to carry all the way though.

Overall, I actually found this was a pretty great flick for the price tag, and if the plot interests you then ignore the budget and give it a go.

The movie has a bad written script: few crucial lines, scenes are delivered to the audience directly through the lines of the characters, whithout any subtle signals in the actions. Also, the director has made a few wrong choices in the way the cameras are placed on the set for most of the scenes, using only 1 or 2 angles. Moreover, the voices of the characters sound as they've been placed after the filming, recorded in the studio. The actors seem bored, tired and uncomfortable with each others and the characters they are playing. The backround music seems to have been downloaded from a cheap website with free :30 secs recordings of some alternative music. The figuration seems to be unaware of what they are supposed to do, and so do the secondary actors after they've said their lines, looking vaguely at the floor. Therefore, dear IMDB, I strongly believe that this movie, which I watched as a joke, should be taken off of IMDB, as it is written that it is a comedy, but the only funny things happening in this joke of a movie are the Retrica filter applied to each scene and the POOR plot twist that made no sense. please

A waste of money and time... do not attempt to watch this rushed garbage... Horrible all around... poor everything. You have to wonder how "so called movies" like this even make it, or are even allowed to be advertised. Sucks cause any rich kiddo can waste our time with crap like this...and that is exactly what this movie is!

If you're not a fan of B-Grade movies and/or can't appreciate the comedy in apparent cheesy acting and scenes, or if you want to compare this to Weird Science, you should read no further you will hate this movie. If you don't tick all those boxes you should really give this a try. Get relaxed in your preferred method and have a laugh. My rating is taking into consideration that it is low budget and intentionally cheesy in spots.
