فيلم جيد!

There's a lot of scenes that don't feel they are needed or add anything to the film... It's very slow, and very dull. The idea sounds cool, and I really feel so much more could have been done with it. But nothing actually happens!? There's one cool scene in the whole film where tickets come out of a guys strange rash on his arm. But apart from that it's dull. It is like watching someone else watch YouTube but they don't have much of a personality. She has a couple of "weird feelings" but then everything is fine. There's so much of nothing in this film that it was difficult to get my review long enough.

Produced by indie darling director David Lowery, Jane Schoenbrun's internet themed drama We're All Going to the World's Fair (wrongly marketed as a straight up horror) is a film that portrays a scarily accurate example of the dangers of internet double lives and our global epidemic of tech obsessed culture but can't make the most of its loaded and topical subject as it meanders along its 90 minute runtime without enough noteworthy material in between. Gaining attention at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival and other various showcases across the world, Fair has done well to become the talked about property it has in certain film circles and Schoenbrun works some wonders with her minuscule budget and tiny cast that is lead by a committed Anna Cobb as lonely teenager Casey, in what is her feature film debut. Taking part in a viral online horror game known as The World's Fair, Casey's lonely existence that consists of mainly hanging out in her room browsing the web, watching online videos and having Skype sessions with complete strangers is upturned by her participation in the World's Fair game as her blurred reality makes her question what is and isn't real as she tries to deal with the mental and potentially physical effects of taking part in the online craze. Watching the marketing materials for Fair one would think as viewer you may be in for some type of Paranormal Activity type event but Fair is a much slower and ponderous film than that type of genre offering and there's barely a scare in sight here outside of the well known dangers that lurk on the web, present in the film with Casey's uneasy and odd relationship with the much older and equally lonely JLB who has taken a keen interest in Casey's journey through the after effects of the game shes started. One undeniable aspect of Fair that is as good as a film has ever been in the particular area is the capturing of the feeling of isolation that leads them to seek comfort many can find on the web and like many teenagers from around the world, Casey's quest to feel a part of something bigger than her own isolated life and self-doubts leads her to be somebody she isn't to try and gain attention or friends through trickery and in this instance Fair is a worthwhile warning about our modern culture and strange obsession with fads and crazes that are nothing short of dangerous. Final Say - A far from enjoyable film that lacks the character connection and narrative drive that would've made its bleakness more bearable, We're All Going to the World's Fair doesn't work to the level one might've hoped for but has enough to say about our modern world to ensure it's not a complete waste of valuable time. 2 1/2 plush toys out of 5 For more reviews check out Jordan and Eddie (The Movie Guys)

Had high hopes for this movie. It was slow, boring, not at all surprising or contemplative. There are no jump scares; there is no slow burn; there are no jarring moments. The scariest part is the synopsis of it. For a movie with only two characters, the acting was not strong enough to forgive the dullness.

Hello! So, I recently watched this movie and all I can say for myself is that I absolutely loved it. Obviously, the same thing cannot be said for other people. Why? Because this movie was not and is not a horror movie when it's being blatantly advertised as one on IMDB, streaming services, and by the critics reviewing it. Many of the people who gave this movie bad ratings were more than likely expecting an internet horror film. Many of those people were likely (and understandably) very disappointed when they were instead treated to a niche, coming of age art drama with lots of ambiguity and different interpretations. When I first saw the trailer, I had a feeling it was going to be more drama, but with that said, not everyone else sees that. If they see that something says horror, they will believe it's horror because that's what they're being sold. This movie should absolutely not be advertised as a horror film. It's 100% a drama, and with that, I certainly think that's why so many people hated this movie. Had it been advertised for what it was, I'm sure a lot more people would see it for it's true, strange, and very sad beauty. Please give this film a chance, you won't regret it. A+

I was bored from start to finish. Heralded as a future classic. I couldn't wait for it to end. Save your money and time and do something, Anything else.

The inspiration from the "weird" corner of YouTube is present from the first scene and remains throughout the entire movie, intercepted only by the short glimpses into the depressing lives of content creators. How far would you go for the attention of your viewers? In which ways does this attention harm young and volatile? What poses a more serious threat - creepy guys watching you online or your own loneliness that pushed you into this mess? While on a certain level, it does manage to successfully illustrate the vulnerability and mental health issues in teens, it completely fails as a horror movie. The part of the problem is that it brings nothing new into YouTube horror lore. The final result completely relies on the overused tropes of YouTube's "dark" corner. It would've worked better as drama about the mental health risks in teens oversharing on social media, but that would require much more serious exploration of the broader context.

I understand that I'm not the target audience of every single film on Earth. Very early I understood that I am not or ever was that man or that girl. I empathise with people on those situations. I also have kids and I would not be comprehensive if I found a old man speaking with my teenager on an online chat. This is possibly well-intentioned, but I hated a lot of the things it had to say. Plus, as a horror film there are two ok scenes (a fake video and a creppy smile). That's it. Between them? Nothing at all, camuflated as high art and culminating in a terrible and offensive finale.

Let's come up with a story about nothing. A story that goes nowhere and where nothing happens and we'll call it a movie. This won 2 awards? Visionary director? Seriously? I mean if you want to watch a show about nothing watch Seinfeld, at least you'll laugh.
