Chatroom
An exciting and powerful story about the world of adolescence and excitement through many exciting situations. That story began with a young man named William, a dark teenager. William Day decided to open an online chat room where he met four other teenagers to manipulate them. The story changed the course of things in the lives of these teenagers, where William began to use these young people in their own purposes by forcing them to share their secrets and use them against bad things.

Plausible chills are offset by the film's clumsy youth-movie trimmings, which, through lurid visuals and ripe overacting by its largely unknown cast, drain most of the suspense and interest...

Poorly written and badly acted, Chatroom squanders its only decent idea early on and rapidly descends into a shallow-minded, lifeless thriller that fails to engage on any level whatsoever.

The gimmick is so poorly conceived that we spend most of the film converting what we are being shown into what is actually going on. It isn't worth the effort.

Director Hideo "The Ring" Nakata never connects with the script (by Enda Walsh, adapting from his own play).

There's a great idea here, but this awkward and dated film struggles to bring the cyberspace experience to life in the form of a gritty teen thriller.

Nakata - here making his English language debut - fails to drum up much in the way of tension from the plot's hoky attempt to exploit fears about the existence of online suicide clubs.

The film finally fizzles into feeble melodrama, with all the power of an old episode of Grange Hill.

'The Social Network' and 'Catfish' prove there are ripe films to be made on the dark side of web connectivity, but this is the rotten apple of the bunch.

Pantomimic dialogue, stagey sets and underwritten characters render this instantly obsolescent.

A movie of utter, unspeakable, hideous awfulness. A movie that makes you want to prise open your brain and scoop out all memory of having watched it.

Unfortunately the scenes set in the real world (the locations include Camden Lock and the London Zoo) are stilted and unconvincing, while those in the chatrooms become increasingly tedious.

Shallow, violent movie could spark teen discussion.
