    Surprisingly amazing!
    When I start watching this movie I wasn't really looking for something to amaze me, just was having the vibe of watching something goofy till i fall asleep, but what just happened! I don't get the bad reviews? I mean why? Seriously why? For a moment I didn't believe they are commenting on the same movie!

    I just want to say, if you like a movie thats digs deep in ourselves and bring the courage to confront ourselves with our darkest and baddies side , just go ahead and watch this , you will never regret that, I pretty sure that even if the movie didn't touch you I'm sure enough its not that bad as other reviews are showing.

    Conjecture that Rowan is also a Liar
    I must be overthinking but I cannot help guessing that Rowan is also a liar. Her mother is like the boss and direct the speech and the fake trauma. Rowan tried to tell Danni the truth about her sister after the game but Danni changed the topic. I can be totally wrong but I feel the ending scene is a bit sarcasm, especially when Rowan smiled. What Danni did is absolutely not okay, but the good point is that the movie makes me feel the condition and thoughts of Danni, which makes judgement to her a little complex, it is something emotional behind the obvious terrible lies. To make it more complex I must be overthinking.

    Already forgot it...
    This is one of those super empty movies that you forget 2 days later that you even watched it. The acting is mostly but the story could have been sooo much more. Instead, it felt cringey like 90% of the time. It definitely had so much potential. Things got real bad for her in the end, I get it, but honestly they should have gotten way worse. I feel like we barely just scratched the surface of how bad things could have gotten for her.

    I do think that the story was very original. We really do live in a social media consumed world. Influencers are portrayed as the vapid empty creatures that they are. But that's also the problem - it's showing all these stereotypes and it's making fun of them but it's doing such a bad job at it that the movie ends up being the butt of the joke. If you're going to make fun of something bad at least do a good job at it. Otherwise you're going to look even worse than the very bad thing you've making fun of. I guess no one told the writers that... Oh, well. Here goes another movie no one will be talking about 2 weeks from now.

    So not satisfying
    I loved the first bit of the movie, the photo editing, the creativity and ofcourse Dylan O'Brien looking sooooo good. But then it all went down. We never get a satisfying end. What happend between Danni and Colin? The girl who plays Rowan is a pretty good actress tho. This movie was so hyped up on TikTok that my expectations where too high. When the movie ended I though, really???? Is this the end? It could be so much better. Maybe there will be a part 2? I hope so because then we can see more of Dylan as a bad boy with blond hair. I would love that. And one thing, it was not a cliche for sure.

    Everybody needs to see this
    'Not Okay' is a satirical take on influencer culture, and a contemplative, dark comedy about social media personalities, for whom, life revolves around likes, comments, and media attention. For whom, their entire existence relies upon the number of followers they have on their Instagram on TikTok. Being a motivator, and an inspiration for millions of people is not wrong but the harsh fact is, not everybody is truthful, and not everyone represents their 'Real' selves!

    'Not Okay' not only sheds some light on those 'pretentious' sections of the crowd, but it also makes us aware of all the lies deceptions, and fabrications perpetrated by such persons. You wouldn't believe, what some people could do to earn some additional 'Likes' on their posts, to gain some 'sympathy' from the audience. They could go to unimaginable lengths to achieve their ambitions, to fulfill their appetite to get 'Famous', to be an Internet Phenomenon!

    But the tragedy is, truth never stays hidden, it will eventually come out one day and you have to face severe consequences for your previous actions. Internet may bring people together, may tie us all down by a singular thread but It can also be the 'Unkindest'. The same internet that had brought you limitless stardom could end the very same in seconds. All the things that floated you above, may as well bring you down to the ground at any given moment. And that's the grim reality we all have to accept.

    And this movie attempts to showcase just that! With a fairly engaging Screenplay & remarkable performances (by both Zoey Deutch and Mia Isaac) this story acts as a lesson for both these influencers and for the ordinary 'netizens' who get infatuated with all the glitz & glamour of social media but tend to neglect the darker aspects!

    I'm in no way suggesting this was a flawless execution, just as always, there are a couple of unquestionable weaknesses but I think this is a movie that everyone needs to watch at least once in their life. Especially for 'Millennials'; I hope they would get to learn a lesson or two.

    P. S. Zoey Deutch is criminally underrated, she may not always get her due recognition but man! I have to say, she's one helluva performer!
