Girl in the Video

Good film showing the results of the new generation not respecting the parents and the parents knowing the worst of life but finding it hard to relay to their kids when surviving life is the most important thing to keep your family alive but they won't understand until they are parents themselves. All realistic to a point but Kristy is literally in buckle restraints on separate wrists in front of her body, so she could literally undo them and run away, even Matthew Marsden said the line that the kidnapper has not restrained her properly. Maybe that was a nod to the film makers not being realistic or just because they couldn't afford to use zip ties at the time but I feel they wouldn't of used that intentionally as we would all try and escape. But overall a good film showing that you think your kids are safe with them not being outside among the danger we know is out there but actually the danger is literally at their finger tips inside your own home.

The message it's portraying is clear and shows the horror of social media. How they can safeguard the internet appears to be impossible. It's scary to know that children can easily be manipulated and believe everything at face value. Evil people prey on the vulnerable and these days, they have the tools to make it easy for them to carry out their depraved crimes.

So yes the film opens your eyes to the fact, in my opinion the acting in this film is dire! The characters didn't portray any genuine emotion, it wasn't gripping, it was a plodding beginning, middle and end film but happy of course she survived.

This film takes a sobering look at the so-called Dark Web, and it becomes highly technical with such terms as "sock pocket" and "Tor onion." In the placid community of Haverbrook, an unsuspectiing fifteen-year-old is kidnapped by a deranged "catfisher," who streams her period of captivity to a psychopathic clientele on the internet.

Young Krissy Meyer is the victim of the kidnapping. Her devoted mom Mo and her loving brother Robbie desperately assist the FBI in discovering the whereabouts of their loved one.

There is nothing I can add to the review of user "Chartreuse1," who has provided a superb recap of this powerful film. One of the points made by the reviewer was that the cast was entirely British. It was a amazing to observe how successfully the actors adopted American accents for members of the Haverbrook community.

I thought the plot was very interesting, but the production quality is so low, i thought i was watching a Tubi movie. The acting wasnt that great from anyone except for the Agent, the ending was the most anti-climatic thing ive ever witnessed, i thought i accidentally paused the movie for a second, It was really unrealistic, no cop, mostly with the cops, the words they used, their emotions, just not how regular police work, and also the attire, very "not actually a cop" ive seen halloween movies more detailed. Overall, not a movie i would watch again but im sure those actors will improve and i wish them the best.

First I want to say that this is a messed up world where perverts pay to watch children being abused.

I found this movie difficult to watch, but important to bring public awareness of catfishing. I knew going in that it would be hard to watch. So I tried to brace myself for things I would most likely see, or things that would be implied. But there is no way to prepare yourself for knowing that a child is being abused. It's just heartbreaking.

I've followed Cush Jumbo's career since her role in The Good Wife.

She plays Krissy's (Tia May Watts), the abducted girl's mother. I thought she did a good job. I think I heard her British accent creep in just once, very slightly.

I thought everyone was good in their roles, and the acting was above average for an LMN/Lifetime movie.

I don't care how savvy we think we are, catfishing is getting more and more dangerous. We must all be vigilant.

The ending made me emotional.
