Cam

The movie starts well. You might be waiting for the part from synopsis which says that a look-alike takes over, but the initial character development of Madeline does help set the tone of how important the job is for Madeline. Her transformation from less confident to dealing with a difficult problem is nicely sketched.

There is a weird scene in the movie, where friend of Madeline, asks Madeline to take pics of her and then later when she looks at the snap, she says, "I look so blotchy" and proceeds to fix her photo, even though Madeline repeatedly clarifies that she looks fine. This is weird because this scene is highlighted and it creates a feeling that later in the plot, it might show you that her friend was involved somehow. Anyways, that what I thought.

5 is for good cinematography. Could have been better with some more skip-the-beat thrills.

Good plot, amazing actress, but the ending basically doesn't explain anything. It's like the movie has been cut into two halves except the second half is none existent

The film starts out quite strong with an interesting concept and keeps you intrigued for about half an hour. Unfortunately it then begins to run off the rails up until the climax, where I just didn't know what was going on anymore. The movie doesn't bother giving you any clear answers and ends on a somewhat disappointing note.

CAM is also one of those movies that makes you wonder, why the protagonist acts the way she does. She is portrayed as a quite reasonable girl in the beginning, but her actions become more and more incomprehensible and stupid as the story goes on. What's more, the movie tries to explore different themes throughout its plot (mainly the cam girl's family life), but these efforts don't pay off because of the shallow side characters.

In the end, CAM feels like an overlong BLACK MIRROR episode focusing on the internet's dark side with very moderate success.

Cam (2018) follows a camgirl who awakes one day to discover she's been replaced on her show with an exact replica of herself. This horror film introduces a haunting and highly intriguing scenario. Although the mystery itself is captivating, the conclusion is underwhelming as the film avoids any delivery of answers. The direction and cinematography were surprisingly fantastic, with the aesthetic of the cam rooms making for some beautiful shots and sets. I also really enjoyed the social commentary on how online sex workers are viewed and how they're forced to lead dual lives due to the stigma associated with the profession. Some better writing and a more solid third act could really change this film from good to great.

Most of the movie was interesting, bu everything goes down at the end. Nothing is explained, and you end up feeling that you wasted your time
