I went to go see **Unsane** tonight. Daaaaaaaamn. Soderbergh did a great job here. I can't believe the entire movie was shot on an iPhone. Crazy psychological thriller, and I really didn't know what was real or not for a good portion of the movie.

Definitely do NOT take a girl who is afraid of stalkers to see this movie. She will have nightmares for days after seeing this. Guaranteed. I even got freaked out as a guy.

**Why did I decide to watch it?** I liked the premise. And I like some of Soderbergh's movies (but not all).

**Baseline score:** 6

**Watchability.** Will I ever watch it again?
-1 I seriously doubt it

**Emotions.** What did I feel?
0 Nothing special. It definitely was not scary.

**Characters.** Was there someone I was rooting for?
0 No

**Story.** Did I like it?
0 As I've said I liked the premise. But the premise was "is she crasy or not". And that question was answered almost immediately. And then there was no mistery. Instead we got a psycho and a rotten system.

**Picture.** Was it beautiful?
0 Nothing special

**Music.** Do I remember it? Do I want to buy the soundtrack?
0 No

**Final score:** 5

The chick I took to the movies doesn't like horror.. oh well, she'll find her way home

I'm still wondering how I could make it through the whole movie... It was like on every turn they could make, they decided to go for the most obvious and boring road. Not one moment it was thrilling nor did anything unexpected happen.
This is pure art in a way... The art of making the most unintelligent film in history. 99 minutes of pure boredom and a story that could be summed up in one sentence. I recommend to just watch a YouTube video instead - doesn't matter which one. You can thank me later...

An oddly specific story which combines horror and insurance scam. I would've preferred something more relatable, more universal, especially considering the story is riddled with WTF and the directing is surprisingly amateurish from someone experienced enough to know better.

It's not because it's Steven Soderbergh that we have to call it art or pretend to like it.

This makes for a challenging watch. This movie is at least 40 minutes too long and once it gets to the point, it takes a while to resolve itself. Not very satisfying. This is the first movie in a LONG time I saw people leave the theater after already sitting there an hour. So it's not just me. This is a slog.

I was mostly on board with this until the later parts... they seemed to lack the finesse this was trying to setup.

Another horror movie that's not scary. And recording with an iPhone did not help, even on the contrary, the video looks pretty amateurish. The story was interesting at the beginning, but shortly after everything became clear, it did not make sense to think about the film anymore, but only waiting for it to end. The film seemed to be trying to explain things that are already quite clear. And I'll repeat it again - do not put a movie in the horror category if it is not ... this is a classic example of a psychological thriller. 5/10 and that's more than generous... in my opinion :D

This movie was absolutely awesome. Loved it! Not what I expected at all.

This is a very interesting movie. Since it was shot on an iPhone it has such a unique look. It was a little distracting at first but I ended up really enjoyed the cinematography. The constraints of using an iPhone made for some beautiful shots. The score was good. Claire Foy is pretty great and so is Jay Pharoah. I wish he had more screen time, those two had good chemistry.

[spoiler]The center mystery of if Sawyer is actually crazy or not was done well. I was never sure if I could trust what we were seeing. Even when David was in the solitary confinement room I still wasn't sure if it was actually him or in her head. Then more bodies started to show up and realized it really was him. That's when I was starting to get worried about her. The ending was kinda sad, she will be forever haunted. Oh and why does Matt Damon just show up for a surprise cameo. [/spoiler]

i honestly think that it's very easy to tell that this was filmed on an iphone. the acting was solid, but the feeling of the movie just. hit the wrong way. i genuinely think it should've been made with traditional cinematography instead.

Claire Foy at her most unrestrained, hypnotic best!
