Meet Kurt, from @KurtsWorld96. He dreams of one day sitting atop a social media empire, but he’s not there yet. He currently drives for the rideshare company Spree, which is cool for him because he gets to hang with so many dope people all day long. Fortunately, Kurt has come up with the perfect way to go viral: #TheLesson. He’s decked out his car with cameras for a nonstop livestream full of killer entertainment. In the middle of all this madness, a stand-up comedian with her own viral agenda, Jessie Adams, crosses Kurt’s path and becomes our only hope to put a stop to his misguided carnage.

Ein zynischer Hinweis auf die Werte der heutigen Teenager-Welt, für welche nur die Anzahl der Likes wichtig ist und für die man alles macht. Also nicht Neues, nur mit Online-Morden zum Spaß ad absurdum geführt. Es ist aber keinesfalls lustig oder originell, in Gegenteil – der Film hat eine unerträgliche Länge, zu der auch die Selfie-Videos beitragen, in denen der Hauptdarsteller sogar versucht, auf Rassenprobleme in den USA einzugehen. Langweilig, wertlos und hauptsächlich genau so oberflächlich, wie das Subjekt, auf welches hingewiesen wird.

The likeable Joe Keery from Stranger Things is an Uber driver and likes to stream his life, but his follower count is very low and he decides to kill his customers to increase his popularity, but even that doesn't work so the only option is to hunt the popular. The current topic of social networking, where likes constitute life for some people and how far some are able to go to have a following! The film paces nicely, Joe Kerry plays the psychopath so well you even root for him, only the murders could have been grittier, but otherwise fine entertainment that managed to chill at times. Story***, Action>No, Humor>No, Violence**, Entertainment****, Music***, Visuals***, Atmosphere****, Suspense****. 6.5/10.
