Know it's marked as a spoiler but I want to re-iterate that this contains spoilers.
I actually quite enjoyed this movie, I went simply because it was a Saturday afternoon and I needed something to do since I finished my book. However I enjoyed myself more than I thought I would. There were aspects of the movie that I found myself enjoying, small instances such as the glitching of the video (as you would see in a real Skype call) or the buffering of a youtube video. I did think that the glitching was overdone though, and considering the laptop this all took place on was Blaire's there shouldn't have been any video interference coming from the video feed on her cam.
Now to talk about the ending, I shouldn't have been surprised with the "twist," really it's a typical thing, the person you least expect is the one who does it, but it did catch me off guard... I loved it. But there was one part of the ending I would have loved to see changed. When they cut to her face after the facebook comments started up with "kill urself," "unfriended," "ur horrible," etc, I would have liked that to be where it ended. Instead of Laura killing her as well, I would have liked for Laura to leave her to live with it. To feel so bullied and frightened that she ends up commuting suicide herself (instead of having Laura make her kill herself).
