DuringthisweekImanagedto have the pleasure of watchingthe movie thathasbeenattachedto

youwho don'tknowunfriended.Itisaunique foundfootage horrormovie directedbyLeo
Gabriadze viewedbythe eyesof acomputerscreen.Sofar it’sbeengivenmixedreviewswithsome
sayingthat it’sgoodsome that itwas terrible.
But, nowhere comesthe funpart what didI thinkaboutit.To start the begin of the movie was

to make mattersworse twocharacters whichwere meanttobe friendsbythe waystarted
screamingat eachotherfor no reasonthanto show that thisgroup of teens hadtheirownpersonal
problems.Butyetall of thiswhichmade me hate the first30 to 40 minutesof the movie helda
certoncharm as the movie wenton.I thinkthat thisgivesita more human feelingwhichseparates
