Must See Movie...
best movie i've ever seen.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
I like how the filmmaker follows 4 notable social media icons, especially Paris Hilton, as they use their online presence to create something bigger than themselves. I think Bert Marcus does a splendid job approaching industry notables to share the rollercoaster ride that follows when deciding to share your life for millions to watch - also get a glimpse of their life and insight. This documentary is a 'must watch' as it helps the viewer better understand that there's more than meets the eye.
The American Meme is a MUST see. It explores very universal themes, super informative AND entertaining.
I'm in my 20s, a prime millennial so they say, but I never fully understood the length to which Social Media affects our culture - I check it once a day, but my life isn't over if someone unfollows me (I don't even notice). This film shed light on 4 different but equally compelling stories. I was entertained by this film all the way through - it was fun and entertaining, yet education and emotional, and those are my favorite types of films.
Great documentary that potrays how influential social media is today. It shows both- the good and the bad in an entertaining yet informative fashion. Enjoyable for all ages.
