Zusammenfassung
Reviewers say 'We're All Going to the World's Fair' delves into teenage isolation, mental health, and internet influence. The film is lauded for its slow-burn narrative, unique horror aspects, and deep character exploration. Anna Cobb's performance as Casey and the atmospheric cinematography receive high praise. However, some critics find the plot and horror elements lacking, resulting in mixed reactions. The film's marketing as a horror movie is debated, with some feeling it misrepresents the film's actual focus.

Films are a subjective medium, therefore the interpretations can vary depending on who is watching and what kind of background they are coming from. I had read reviews from other critics suggesting that this might be a direct reference to creepypasta obsession or a general tendency of the naive youth who incline toward such supernatural happenings.
While I do not completely refute this set of statements, yet, with all due respect, I beg to differ. The film doesn't reflect any single obsession towards a particular subject, there's a broader thing at play, it is about this relentless infatuation with finding relevancy on the internet, finding comfort, or finding much-needed solace in the virtual space.
The narrative won't carry much weight for the people who hadn't experienced true loneliness, who hadn't had to endure the extreme ends of existential dread, who didn't suffer from any sort of depression, anxiety, or had to deal with a suicidal mindset, very rarely I say this but I will be much happier if you aren't able to relate.
To those who could, this message is for you...
I know life is hard, it's difficult dealing with the pain, at times it becomes intolerable, this pain becomes so excruciating that we often think of letting it all go, to disappear, I know, I had gone through that phase. To whoever reading this, just be aware that you are not alone in this battle, there are millions of people around the globe like you, trying to find their own places, their own identities. I just want you to hang on, keep going, keep fighting, trust me, you can overcome it, I know you will, till that day arrives, don't give up.

While I appreciate this film as a character study, through behavior rather than dialogue, that evokes idiosyncratic emotion, I could not be more disappointed with practically every other aspect. The movie was slapstick, cheaply shot, purposeless, and overall a waste of an hour and 25 minutes. There's an adage that if a gun is introduced in one act, it should be used in the following otherwise don't put it there. This movie did the exact opposite. Very dull on top of being dreadfully slow with nearly zero payoff.
This is not a bad movie, it's just marketed to the wrong people. At no point is this movie actually scary, or even thrilling. It's a cerebral, artsy drama, with coming of age elements. There are a few times where it's pretty clear what's about to happen, not much of it is terribly interesting though. Will I watch it again? No. Is the screenshot on HBO misleading? I would say so. I think the main thing is that the characters are lonely, and it shapes the movie. Being a teenager is hard, especially when you're constantly alone, like our main character, Casey. Then, when most attention you get is coming from a random stranger on the internet? That thought is scarier than the movie, lol.
I can appreciate the work that has gone into making the movie and production wise i'd say it's a good movie for being a low budget film, but it's definitely not my cup of tea.
It was very slow and I expected more from it. A lot of scenes took forever, like the moment when we're watching ASMR for about 3 minutes. Don't know I feel about that one either, if it's a brilliant choice for a horror movie or not. It is probably the only original thing in the movie I'd say.
IDK, it get points for trying and some people might like/love the movie, I just didn't.

The inspiration from the "weird" corner of YouTube is present from the first scene and remains throughout the entire movie, intercepted only by the short glimpses into the depressing lives of content creators.
How far would you go for the attention of your viewers? In which ways does this attention harm young and volatile? What poses a more serious threat - creepy guys watching you online or your own loneliness that pushed you into this mess?
While on a certain level, it does manage to successfully illustrate the vulnerability and mental health issues in teens, it completely fails as a horror movie.
The part of the problem is that it brings nothing new into YouTube horror lore. The final result completely relies on the overused tropes of YouTube's "dark" corner.
It would've worked better as drama about the mental health risks in teens oversharing on social media, but that would require much more serious exploration of the broader context.

- WissenswertesIn a 2022 interview with Filmmaker Magazine, Jane Schoenbrun spoke about the origins of the New Year's Eve scene: "I filmed that on a camcorder. I made my partner drive with me upstate, and we spent New Year's bumming around Saugerties quietly, mapping out the path and figuring out exactly how to time it so that I could start filming at 11:57 and hit the center of town right as the countdown actually began. It really was this 'You get one shot' sort of deal. I had gone to an Airbnb up in Saugerties over New Year's a couple years earlier. I was sick as a dog, spent that entire weekend lying around feeling terrible and didn't leave this Airbnb for three days except at midnight. I staggered out, went to the town and saw this very charming, small-town version of the Times Square ball drop. After I saw that, I was like, 'I need to work that into a movie someday.' The idea that Casey would be there filming was one of the early ideas for this film. The loneliness of being in a crowd of people and feeling like you can say whatever you want because no one is listening, or is even aware you're there, is a big part of that scene. Also, so many of the kids hanging around half a block away from the center of that party we were filming WERE Casey. It was like, 'Oh yeah, there are Caseys EVERYWHERE in towns like this.'"
