Acerca de esta película

In the near future, every nation in the world has to eliminate 5% of their population, as mandated by the United Nations. The United States chose THE THINNING -- the act of eliminating students in every grade who scores a C or lower. Schools annually go under a lock-down procedure in which all students take a standardized test. The Thinning became the prevailing method in the United States as it was heavily backed by powerful political figures. The PR spin that helped to sell most civilians is that it "Keeps America competitive and ahead in Innovation".

Blake, 17, finds himself at odds with the status quo. The son of a powerful Governor, Blake intends to send a message to the country by purposefully failing his final exam and being sent to the thinning. Blake's father Dean, 42, is a staunch supporter of the Thinning and will do whatever it takes to defend it… even having his son’s failed exam switched with another student’s passing exam.

Laina, 17, a diligent, hard-working student, has worked her entire life to be the best in her class. Laina is rattled to find out that she did not make the grade and will be sent to the thinning, leaving her two younger siblings behind. Unwilling to die unjustly, Laina escapes the shackles of euthanasia to prove her own innocence and vows to uncover the truth.

Once Blake purposefully fails the test but finds out he has passed, he and Laina begin to investigate and uncover an elaborate conspiracy behind the scenes of the government and the entire thinning program.

No thought put into the details. Example: they are allowed to bring cells to school that day, the guards are dressed lile storm troopers, the school is like a max pen and yet the kids dress lile normal? Kids wear uniforms now in real life... And why go that day if you know you're dead... The pulling of the losers out in front of the rest would cause a uprising eventually. Folks I'm only 16 mins in it. Lol 42 mins in and I give up. If you think this is a 5 star you'd probably be "thinned". And what is up with all the fake reviews YouTube?

Pretty bad. Logan Paul's character makes nonsensical decisions and he has a cringeworthy way of delivering dialogue. The film has very little style to it. It basically just does the "color everything blue and desaturate the image" thing that a lot of movies do now. Anything designed for this movie, like the outfits and voices of the guards, come off as laughable and cliché. Some of the cinematography is good, but it can't save this cheesy dialogue, bad acting, and the overall cheap feeling the film gives off.

My 1 star is not for the movie, I haven't seen it yet.. My 1 star is for the 2 Idiots who decided to screw everyone else and spoiled the end telling what happened. one idiot gave a bad review the other a good one but both gave up the ending. I hope people read this before they stumble over the two critics from Idiotville and are able to experience it to determine what they think (bad or good).. Thanks Geniuses for your stupidity...
