Maybe I'm too old for this film but I didn't like it at all. Hated all the characters. Felt like they were all written by a 15 yr old. If you can relate to any of the people in this movie, then you're probably too young to be watching this movie. I just couldn't wait for it to end. Maybe im just too old to be able to understand any of the motivations or to believe that any of these caricatures could really exist. It was watchable but that's about it. Joe Keery did the best with what he was given.
Honestly enjoyed this. This and ingrid goes west are my top two fav social media based films! Both highlights the danger of social media, influencing, having followers, needing approval from strangers and mental health issues.
So much more than a social media parody of the desire to be popular and quite likely just mimicking events in the future that will become increasingly gruesome in this disposable and voyeuristic world.
Fact and fiction spiralled and entwined within shades of black and white from zenith to nadir, switched on to off, between one and zero, from beginning to end - there's no black and white, only shades.

Not gonna lie, I have aged out of the live-streaming demographic; so this out-of-the-woodwork film was a genuinely pleasant surprise.
"Spree" is going for satire on the empty pursuit of followers and the movie nails it. Joe Keery really brings this goofy kid to life; his desperation echoes that of Patrick Bateman (with some nice "Nightcrawler" sociopathy thrown in), clearly trying too hard to build that social media brand. His performance here is an eye-grabber, and I do hope that it helps broaden his appeal.
I quite enjoyed myself and found something much deeper than the marketing had implied. Keery's great in the role and it's evident that that plenty of thought and effort went into this. It's darkly funny, it's twisted and I absolutely had to see how all of this would end.

Started off great. 4chan incel creating content and gives up and becomes a murderer.
Sadly this film went on for too long, just became stupid and didn't live up to its potential
