Infamous

1 out of 5 stars.

Infamous is one of the worst films about a young adult girl Arielle (Bella Thorne) who wants to escape her home town and become famous. She meets a guy Dean (Jake Manley) which he is out of prison and on parole. After an incident. She and him go on a robbery spree while posting on social media and getting many followers.

Like a bonnie and clyde idea with using social media to get people to like them. Even when body counts rises. However, these characters are so unlikable. Bella Thorne and Jake Manley did not help create an emotional connection with there characters. Bella facing her moms boyfriend who may or may not stolen her money. Jake having father issues. It was difficult to care for these characters.

The plot is dumb. The acting is horrible. Stupid dialogue. And a very boring ride with these characters that has a soundtrack that may be attracting to a younger female teen crowd.

My biggest recommendation I can give is if you are thinking of watching this movie go and watch Spree (2020) instead. That movie handles every subject in this movie 10% better. It's so much more satirical and bitting than this movie.

My biggest praise is the soundtrack at the beginning of the movie. The music department really understood the basic premise of the movie more than the actors or the filmmakers. It is full of "neon" dreamlike songs that really capture this youthful, whirlwind, runaway in the night fantasy. Now only if the movie captured that feeling.

The characters are really childlike and really directionless. This is also not helped by the acting. It is really cartoon like.

I did warm more towards the movie when Amber Riley appeared. It got a little better but I still wouldn't recommend it.

Killing people and being a stupid psychotic beach is obviously good thing. Well done,!

I rather liked it, something to watch after a long day. Brain power not required.

I honestly enjoyed watching this movie. I thought the two main actors did a good job and it kept me entertained for the whole movie, I didn't think of turning it off once! Honestly, they could of done a better job on the script as it truly did have the potential to be amazing. But in saying that it wasn't that bad! Some of the reviews I've read are really over the top and are very harsh on this film. It doesn't deserve it. It's an entertaining movie. Is it oscar worthy? No. But it's honestly a just above average film. It was meant to simply entertain and it did that! I say give it a go and see for yourself.
