Influencer

I haven't had a great run with Shudder films recently. I haven't enjoyed one in a while and so seeing that brand attached to a film was starting to become a disappointing warning sign. I am happy to say that 'Influencer' has gone a little way towards redeeming the brand. This was a fun ride.

I was a little bit worried early on during the set up when we were meeting an "influencer" and seeing all the pretentious and fake photo-shoots and blog posts. I was worried that was going to be a hard protagonist to root for. Then the film became something else entirely and it went down a very enjoyable and dark route.

I love it when a film feels like it has any ending on the cards. It doesn't matter whether it ends up being the darkest of dark endings or a happy ending or something in between. All that matters is that it feels like the film is capable of delivering the full spectrum and 'Influencer' had that feel about it.

I love it when you go into a film without overly high expectations and it then proceeds to prove you wrong at every turn. 'Influencer' was exactly that and I would highly recommend it. 8/10.

The movie itself it's quite interesting till the last 10 minutes that ruined everything. Are you serious?

I don't understand why Independent cinema can't be more original or risky.

First, the movie starts strong with a non original story but acting is decent and the landscapes are beautiful. So, overall good setting to start.

Second, the script is acceptable and credible most of the parts, but the last 10 minutes ruined everything including credibility, originality or any possible great score here. Honestly, I drastically changed my mind after watching how this movie ends.

So, overall the movie is watchable and forgettable as an Instagram post from any fake influencer. A wasted opportunity. It could have been far better with a real and authentic conclusion.

I went into this expecting something poorly acted, predictable, and boring. Instead I got a pretty good movie that was filmed professionally, with very solid acting, and a plot that maybe was predictable with the broad strokes, but not in the details. I've watched a lot of bad movies lately and this is not one of them. If you're not looking for a Pan's Labyrinth type masterpiece and just want a fun movie, check out Influencer! It's much better than the normal Shudder faire.

In addition to the professional look of the movie, we get some spectacular settings (I suspect working on this movie was pretty great). Cast was small but all more than up to the task. Not a deep thinker of a movie, but a fun one nonetheless. Definitely worth a watch, enjoy.

Quite enjoyable shudder original. Haven't seen many yet so this one is a rare gem. It's not a horror at all, it's a nice little thriller set in Thailand. Cassandra Naud leads, and is quite talented, using some charm and other more nefarious acting talents.

What I thought made this movie above average was the pacing, the plot itself which is pretty unique and well thought out, adding a social media element but not making it the entire story.

Some of the cinematography is pretty breath taking, on the water, etc and the settings are diverse so you don't get stuck in a location.

Overall it's a quite, tight, well acted thriller although a tad predictable at least for me. I'll give that a pass though, I watch too many movies. 6.5/10. We'll done!

It was entertaining and good fun to watch. The Cinematography was brilliant . It captured the beautiful side of Thailand . We are normally shown the dirty , seedy side of Thailand in films . All the directors ever show us are young backpackers from the UK Europe and Australia because according to the directors no-one with money visits or exists in Thailand ! Lol! So it was refreshing to see the real Thailand which has beautiful hotels , apartments and houses!

The film was well acted . The lead female 'baddie' was excellent . The plot was good too! It showed how fake influencers are and a lot of money can be made by inventing an online character . The ending was great too ( Even though most of us would have guessed the ending , it was still fun ! . This movie is worth a watch! .
