It looks to have been shot with one professional camera, in addition to many of the cast's Motorola flip phones. There are worst movies out there, and at least some of the scenery was nice, and the sound was consistently mixed.
Let's just get it out of the way quickly and just mention in passing that this multicultural, woke, vaping cast is an excuse to perpetuate the most cynical and dramatic racial stereotypes. But hey, white people! Am I right? (that line is legitimately in the first 17 minutes of the movie.)
The attempt to legitimize the found footage narrative style was so lazy, and rather indicated the requirement to film this on cheap, handheld cameras. This was also the first movie I've ever seen, in my life that included re-enactments of police rummaging through crime scenes in addition to the interview-as-an-exposition-dump trope.
The acting was so bad, their lines were so insultingly stupid and their characters were so unlikeable that I found myself wanting to fight them physically. I'm not even sure if I wanted to hit the actors or their characters, but I was overcome with the overwhelming desire to hit them, while holding a brick.
I will definitely never want to see this movie again, and I may end a friendship if someone I know ever so much as suggests watching it. However, to stay consistent with how I generally rank movies, I added one star for the fact that it was filmed outdoors, and some of the scenery was pleasant to look at.
