All My Friends Hate Me

What a strange movie. Despite being overburdened with anxiety and experiencing a recurrence of the same problems, things are only getting worse.

The film's entire premise is to immerse you in Pete's (the protagonist) experience. Rather than your "friends," it's the movie that's making you feel what he's feeling.

The experiment was interesting, and the prank on the viewer lasted quite a while. The production values are high, the acting is top-notch, and the casting couldn't be better.

Putting the viewer in the same situation as the protagonist and having him feel just as befuddled as he does - well done.

As far as I can tell, there isn't much else to say or other purpose pursued by the creators. And it's not a horror, yeah.

An experiment that is clearly not for everyone's liking.

While movie is somewhat entertaining, at the same time, it seems missing some depth or exposition.

It is supposed to portray the feeling of paranoia and awkward unrest and overthinking of the anxious person, however, from what is shown to us, the friends of the main character are actually being really mean to him and his paranoia in this care is actually justified. Now it might be the case that we're dealing with an unreliable narrator and what we're seeing is main characters over-exaggerated point of view, however, the movie doesn't really give much indication of such thing, which while makes the main character more relatable, because anyone would be paranoid in his shoes, one the other hand, makes the movie fundamentally fail as a psychological piece about paranoia and anxiety.

'All My Friends Hate Me' is mislabeled on IMDb as a horror. There's not even really a case you could make for it being one. Nonetheless it is a remarkably intriguing little film. It's a "what is going on?" mystery film done quite well.

I'm not sure if you'd call the characters in the film likeable (the fact that they're not is kind of the point), however you can't deny that they're very interesting if nothing else. It's a wacky collection of people, all of whom are unique, and yet all are equally contributing to this common goal.

The tone of the film is kind of strange. There are funny moments for sure, but more than anything it's just quite an uncomfortable feeling you will get watching it, but in the best way. It also gets pretty dark, particularly towards the end. This film was a pleasant surprise that I quite enjoyed. 7/10.

This is a dark comedy. One of the best dark comedies i have watched the last years. Other reviewers mentioned some flaws and they are right, there are some things here that don't make much sense. However, i didn't care for these details because i found this movie very enjoyable.

For sure, this is not a very realistic movie, but it's a dark comedy, this is the "nature" of dark comedies, everything is a bit exaggerated.

I liked the actors and the twists, i felt the tension, i laughed. The ending was maybe strange and polarizing, but i liked it too. I had a lot of fun watching this. Some of you will not. Remember this has nothing to do with horror, and it's even more farcical than thriller.

This is an all-around well-made movie. It's very catchy, and you stay hooked to the narrative till the end. But I just don't get it. What's the point of it all? I can't figure it out.

It certainly isn't horror. If you're looking for a horror flick, that's not it at all, despite being categorized as such here.

It seems like a morality play of some kind. But even then, I don't understand, not only what the director is trying to convey, but why this entire plot was produced at all! It's not scary, not funny, not really mysterious despite an attempt, maybe, at being a bit mysterious, it's not a thriller, as there is no real thrill, it is possibly dramatic, but to a very limited extent, it certainly isn't comical, it's not sweet, it's not hard or tough or shocking or romantic... It's not either one of these amusing plots by their absurdity. I just don't get it! I don't understand why I just spent the last 93 minutes watching this.

Ironically, I don't have anything negative to say about the production itself, once again. But the film is like the ancestral cod liver oil older generations were taking: so disgusting, so tough to take, but "good for you", yes! Take one every morning as you get up! "What is that good for, exactly?" were you asking. Aw! Well, they didn't know precisely. They just knew it was, indeed, "good for you".

After watching this film, I feel exactly as if I had taken a full table spoon of the stuff. And I'm sure I won't know what, exactly, it was "good" for.
