SURPRISED: Aaron Taylor Johnson (KickAss), Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out and Black Panther) and Directed by Hideo Nakata (Ringu)
Low expectation here...was looking for something to put on as I fell asleep...Little did I know it starred Aaron Taylor Johnson (KickAss), Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out and Black Panther) and was Directed by Hideo Nakata (Original Ringu Movie).It's not perfect for sure, but the plot line and execution of Chatrooms as physical Rooms was pretty Clever. Better underlying development of each Kids Issues would have given it some more depth, but I watch a LOT of movies in this Genre. And, if like me, you also wade through a LOT of tough movies to get all the way through.But I can confidently recommend, Chatroom is a pretty decent Movie to watch if you like the Genre. There's certainly some unique aspects to it, and anymore that's enough reason alone.(note: not Horror, but Psycho-Drama)

a miss to miss
it takes all kinds to make a movie and all kinds to like it or not. I am a not. no lessons or love or caring or reason to watch more than 25 minutes of it to make your choice. the writer is patting his empty back and the director is cashing his check and the actors are going to be in the ring - part 44.

Cool movie
Very interesting movie. A plot I haven't seen before. I really liked the way they portrayed the virtual chatrooms. The main actor was great as well as the supporting cast. Another interesting British film with an original plot. The package arrived on time and in good condition.

Fastanting and thrilling movie.
What a knock out thrilling movie. This movie takes you inside the intern net websites that other movies fail to explore. Good acting to makes this movie watchable.

Unwatchable
I found this movie unwatchable. I watched it with another person and we gave up after twenty to thirty minutes.Recommended for nobody.

Surprising.
Chatroom is a better film than I thought it would be from the blurb on the BD cover. Colourful (in more than one way) imaginative, humorous and (this is meant as a complement ) disturbing. ........ Having praised the film, the disc itself is marred (for me) by the presence at the beginning of an ADVERT which can't be avoided or bypassed. ... There are other versions of this film on Blu-Ray out there, if this bothers you, try them.

Interesting perception of Enda Walsh's Chatroom.
I saw the play of this by Enda Walsh after doing a performance of it for my GCSE Drama exam. This falls into that debate which some films have when the book is written before the film. I found the play was more enjoyable if i'm honest but this was still a very good interpretation of the story. It shows the dangers and influence of people in the digital age. I went to see the play at the national theatre in 2005/6 before the days of facebook but chatrooms were all the rage. It is a great film to watch with your family and children to explain the dangers of the internet and the influence you can have with what you're writing.

A waste of lottery money
I bought this because of the directors earlier Japanese films ---there is no horror just a lot of annoying teenagers posing about.

Brilliant.
The DVD came in great condition and quickly.The movie itself is fantastic -twisted and detailed. It could be considered disturbing, I suppose, because of the intense manipulation and problems of the characters.I think that the acting and story is great, and I would recommend.

Online control.
I saw this film once before and loved it. It shows the dangers of online chat-rooms. The fact it shows 5 different characters/personalities makes it so much more believable.Not for everyone though.
