Catfish



After hearing the hype it created the first days it was out, I decided to check it out. Everyone who has seen it was really impressed and the trailer looked sick.



It is basically a documentary about this young photographer from New York, starting a relationship with a girl who he has only seen through Facebook, and getting close to her family. But when the truth starts to come out, it is really fascinating. I did not like it as much as everyone else did because I had my expectations too high, but it was still really interesting. The influence of social media and specifically Facebook, and how dangerous it can be is successfully demonstrated. It is definitely a must-see film, the fact that it is actually real makes it cooler. I can't give much detail since it would spoil the entire movie for you. So go see it, but just don't get your hopes too high up.
