It's a good film but I didn't like the fact it's based around social media. A kid having an iPhone getting all this publicity is a joke. This is more like an advert for Twitter.

Where's the ending? This film was going along, in a somewhat implausible way, and then just kind of ended. Whatever happened to a story having a beginning, middle and end?
