Trivia
According to the directors, there was a very sexual dare that was not filmed because it was "dark and weird," so they could keep the film accessible to younger audiences.

Goofs
When the leads are driving along the bridge in one shot, approximately ten usernames appear above them, denoting there are watchers in the vicinity. Two of these usernames are clearly identical.

Quotes
Nancy: [in nurses uniform, upset at what she sees on her cellphone] Somebody is putting money in my account!
Black patient in wheelchair: White people problems.

Crazy credits
In the closing credits, at 01:28:39 It says "Based on the novel by Jeanne Ryan". They then show the first several paragraphs of Charles Dickens's "Great Expectations".

6/10

I was entertained, but....

20 mins into this, I loved it - I was all in for the ride, then, you know, that la dee da, bulls*** ending happened. I really wish they'd gone dark with that ending. Actually, every moment after Vee snitches to that cop should be changed, I feel like up until that point it was so good. I was still entertained, but the magical hacker network taking down everything... in record time, uuugh, it was so, typical. Also, Vee's brother, he played Nerve, right? That's how he died?? lol, I can't've been the only one that thought that - why mention him at all, why even have a brother, if he's not central to the story or some breakthrough?? Him being "the fun was" can't've been it, can it?

This movie was good, almost great. Strong 6/10.
