2013 release
Disconnect is simply a story about humans and connections. What brings us together? What pushes us away from one another? Disconnect is a series of stories that mostly connect in some way or another all revolving around the internet. Clearly the filmmakers here are trying to show us how our words and actions online can result in life changing consequences and reminds us that we are all human on the other end on the connection. The casting was great for this film and overall the film itself is very well made. The film flows great and takes it's time to connect you to it's characters. The only flaw in this film however is the ending. It feels rushed and makes it seem like some of the stories just needed or had to be connected together. This unfortunately makes the film appear hall-markish and tacky somewhat. Don't get me wrong this is still a great film that needs to be watched, however I wish the filmmakers would have taken a little more time with the ending. This is an important film and should be watched by all much like last years film 'Trust'. Overall a marvellous watch, a film that shows us what it means to be human.
Rating: 8 out of 10
