Very shallow and uninteresting. Reveals nothing new and the look into the topic is about as superficial as it gets. The director took needlessly too much space and offered little to no insight into the topic. Oddly enough this movie is centered around Instagram, which is a fairly old network by now, completely ignoring the newer and more booming sites like ticktock, snap-chat, clubhouse, etc. Really just skip this one, bland and uninteresting padding for time.

Mildly interesting to watch, but I don't feel like it had any especially revelatory insights into social media. Director inserted himself to an annoying extent.

I liked it. Some things that are so fake totally chocked me. Maybe because I live in Europe and thankfully things are not so crazy as in US.
