I truly can't understand the enthusiasm surrounding this movie. The innovative character everyone seems to be so thrilled about is merely and exclusively formal. The substance is as boring and obvious as it could possibly be. The cute couple's issues, the best friendships going to pieces, the unnecessarily trivial secrets... The FF horror form wasn't born for this. Found Footage means shocking the public with sensational plot twists (The Visit), boosting curiosity (The Conspiracy) and narrating impossible, even otherworldly experiences ( As Above so Below; Grave Encounters) : exploiting the noble FF expedient for stupid teenagers' quarrels over some Facebook shaming video just seems inappropriate.
