Beyond the Neon

Interesting to see the not-positive reviews, because I think this movie is AMAZING. Perhaps some of it was over people's heads.

The format is new - think Blair Witch/YouTube? Which makes perfect sense, because this is about a YouTuber and a YouTube crew.

People seem to think this is a documentary, but it's not- until the parts with the women in the middle, which I found INCREDIBLY impactful. Can't believe what some humans have had to go through.

This movie was extremely creative, the pace is edge-of-your seat excellent, and it leaves you thinking.

Are these characters heroes? No. I don't think they're trying to be. They are "doing it for the wrong reasons" and I think that's kind of the point?

The ending is intense- I won't spoil it, but it's justified by the hardest stuff you'll ever have watch.

Is this an indie film? Yes. It's refreshing to have something diffferent than ANOTHER marvel.

Bravo to the creators! Would love to see more like this.

This film reminds me of a modern day "found footage" movie but with a twist. I've been to Vegas a handful of times and seen the guys passing out nudie cards on the strip and I always wondered what's really going on behind the scenes... Yeah... this makes me think twice before taking a card from anyone. When you hear about human trafficking, you usually picture some foreign country in South America, Asia or Eastern Europe, but the fact that it's happening right here in the U. S. is terrifying. I think the cast and crew are incredibly brave for doing this and we need more people paying attention to what's going on. Support this movie and share it with your friends!

I think it's very important what they're trying to do, but there's too much going on that makes me feel it staged like the boyfriend that is wrapping up drugs, they didn't even blur his face he can go to jail for that. Or them changing out license plates that's illegal that's a felony. So there's just a lot of things I'm questioning, but I'm loving and it's so important to help stop trafficking so I really hope this is real if it's not that's just sad. Sin City has way too much trafficking and it's time that something is done about it. I can't believe trafficking is happening so much in the United States. It breaks my heart, so I hope Joey salads really meant this from the heart and not just for reviews.

As a dad, I thought I had a good handle on the scary things my kids might face, but this movie surprised me. Sex trafficking in America hit me hard. It opened my eyes to how rampant and sneaky this issue is. The survivors who bravely shared their stories had me feeling all sorts of emotions.

The movie was not shy about showing how young girls get lured into trafficking and how they are treated like objects that can be bought and sold. But the ending of the movie was absolutely insane. I don't want to spoil anything, but a complete curveball left me totally shaken. The cliffhanger had me thinking about what might happen next and the bigger picture of the whole thing.

As a parent, it's our job to stay in the loop on issues that could hurt our kids. This movie opened my eyes and reminded me that we must do everything possible to educate and protect our children against people like this. I recommend that every parent watches it!

I was on the edge of my seat this entire film! Not only was this an amazing watch, but it really brings awareness and clarity into the hidden issue of modern sex trafficking. Very eye opening to the possibilities of what some have gone through and are still going through today.

The movie is 85% suspenseful fiction and 15% non-fiction, but the fiction really delves into the real life possibilities of the non-fiction element. The first 2 minutes of this film will make you cry, and this rollercoaster ride of a film will take you to emotional places most films only dream of reaching.

Great and impassioned cast, flawlessly executed story, and an ending that will leave your jaw on the floor. Overall this film is a MUST WATCH!
