Accused

In our cancel culture/witch hunt world it is important to highlight the impact on innocent victims. Also of course touches on general racism. The main actor is fantastic and I would love to see him in other things. I liked how quick the story unfolded at the start and the mid way build up towards the final few scenes of drama. It's a great film for date night nothing too much to think about and really interesting take on a modern day issue.

The old lady scenes were frustrating and possibly not very realistic (why would an old lady not just call the police) but then I guess it wouldn't be much of a film of it was that easy!

This low budget movie is novel and entertaining. It shows the frightening power of social media, hate, prejudice and revenge.

In the wake of an all too familiar London terrorist attack occurs a terrifying case of mistaken identity. A young man simply going about his everyday business happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

A photo of the terror suspect is released. Despite the photo not clearly showing the man's face a storm is whipped up on social media and the young man is wrongly identified as the subject.

What makes this film entertaining is this scenario is all too possible. An innocent photo here or there can lead to severe consequences.

The ability to relate to this incident is what makes the film so entertaining. This is why my social media accounts are locked down so tightly. Especially Facebook! There are no pictures available to the public on my profile apart from my profile picture of me unidentifiable in sunglasses! No tagged pictures relating to my house, work, gym and certainly no public pictures.

After watching this film, if you haven't already, you'd be wise to follow suit! I recommend this film.

Accused is one of those films that you don't know where it's going to go till the penny drops. We see harri and his girlfriend Chloe in bed. He leaves and takes a normal journey on the train. His going to house sit for his parents and look after the cute doggo. But after an explosion happens it's not long before some scumbag online throws Harris name out and now everyone thinks his responsible. It comes down tooor harri fighting for his life against two thugs which was extremely sad to watch but glorious to see him turn the tables. It just shows the dangers of being an online piece of trash and how innocent people can get involved in something they didn't do. The actor playing harri did a very good job though and overall it was a sad but good watch.

First of all, all those low ratings are ridiculous calling out on things not being realistic .. well if they were realistic we wouldn't have a move, would we? If you are thinking on watching it, I would ignore these comments.

The field is brilliantly directed, with some great acting. It is very tense at time, where I couldn't even watch and you can literally feel what the actor is feeling. It portrays very well the power of social media in todays world, and how quickly people jump to conclusion thinking they are detectives, and completely not thinking about the consequences it might have on other people.

Much as I thought this was a good film I found it a really difficult watch and i felt really uneasy from the start, scary to think the events could unfold for any one of us if someone out there just decided to throw your name into the hat for something you didn't do.

The main character was great he done a brilliant job. I felt really uneasy watching this and its the first good film I've watched where I checked the time left as I just wanted to get to the end to see what the outcome was. Definitely worth a watch it's proper edge of your seat stuff but be prepared there is one or two gruesome scenes.
