I mention this because considering how much the other characters incite and insist on the anxiety and confusion of the situation with the main character, I even went so far as to say, ''At what point do you tell them to go **** themselves?''

All My Friends Hate Me works as a perfect case of reconnecting with friends you haven't really had much contact with in years, but yet you think you'll be able to restart everything exactly where you left off. But it's clear that's not how things function in this story.

This is a dark comedy with elements that invite horror, more than anything because of the paranoia element involved.
I think a better pace would've helped it a lot, because the lack of variety in its tone causes some scenes to feel a bit boring and I really think it needed more bite, because if you're already being inconvenient and incisive, then go for it all, don't stay half way.

Very fun movie. I don't think many people would hate this. It's the sort of thing I'd recommend to anyone who's stuck for something to watch.

Very fun movie. I don't think many people would hate this. It's the sort of thing I'd recommend to anyone who's stuck for something to watch.

What stops it getting a higher score is a slight lack of originality and inventiveness with the cinematography and so on. Compare it to something like Knives Out where the fun isn't only in the plot and dialogue but also the editing and camerawork and overall polish. It also lacks a little warmth and humanity, I couldn't really connect with any characters on a deep level. This could be intentional, to allow the audience to feel as disconnected as the protagonist, but I didn't especially connect with him either.

Despite this, it does succeed in making the audience feel as confused and self-doubting as the main character, and works as a kind of absurd metaphor for social anxiety. I thought the ultimate posh guy was an interesting and revealing character, he is clearly the one suffering the most, and yet our protagonist is too busy worrying about what others think of him to really notice. It made for a nice little statement on how the narcissistic element of anxiety can harm people other than the patient. I don't want to get into spoiler territory, so will only say that I wasn't completely buying the ending and hope people understand why. I did experience weapons-grade nuclear cringe though, so that was interesting.

This one got me by surprise, it is truly one of the best movies I've seen in recent times..well actually ever! Very creepy, effective, keeps you second guessing and you never know what's really real. To put it simple: It's a masterpiece, andThis one got me by surprise, it is truly one of the best movies I've seen in recent times..well actually ever! Very creepy, effective, keeps you second guessing and you never know what's really real. To put it simple: It's a masterpiece, and I don't use that term lightly. Brilliant, will stay with you afterwards that's for sure. Cast is brilliant, writing, direction, the music.10/10. Expand
