Skunkyrate Gripping story with well-crafted characters

Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

adi_2002 Almost the whole movie is filmed with an hand-held camera witch make it even more dramatic, but this do not save the poor story and the plot. In one part we see the life of an American family and in the other the routine of a rebel teen devoid of reality. For me this can hardly can be named a film because there no essential content in it, just some girls having fun one night and that's the whole deal. Of course sex, drugs, booze and nudity can be missed to see.Normally when I write a review I talk about the story but for this one there is not much to say because there isn't one.If there is film who asks to be avoided then this is the one. I didn't give it the lowest vote because I've seen other films much more worse and boring then this one. It's dull but not in the way to put you asleep.

evanston_dad Be prepared to hate King Kelly.The character, that is, not the movie. Though possibly the movie too, depending on your tolerance for movies about spoiled brat kids with an unbearable sense of entitlement and a nonexistent grasp of reality and the consequences that come from behaving badly. You might also hate it if the idea of a movie filmed entirely on iPhones in shaky first-person and extreme close up sounds obnoxious. And if there is anything about "King Kelly" that tested my patience, it was this stylistic conceit that's been done to death and stops making narrative sense 10 minutes into the film. It's just not plausible that characters, even characters as obsessed with themselves as the ones who populate this movie, would be able to continue filming each other in any number of the situations in which they find themselves. Those situations include a car accident, a queasy sexual encounter with a state trooper and a shooting, along with lots of running around trying to track down a lost package of drugs. Other reviewers seem to be responding to "King Kelly" as if it's a zany satire not to be taken too seriously. But if this film was meant to be funny, it's attempts failed miserably, because I found it to be more akin to a horror movie than a screwball comedy. It's not a great film, but it does tap into something very authentic about the current world culture of self-made celebrity, in which people with no talent and nothing really interesting to say or relate can pretend to be the famous person they'd rather be by posting every last thought and action on the Internet for the world to see. It's a deeply depressing trend, one that highlights just how bored people are with their lives and how desperate they are to be seen and heard, no matter for what reasons.Grade: B+

MongoLloyd This mostly POV cam film is about as intimate as it gets when it comes to an in-your- face look at a day in the life of a completely superficial teenage (or so) cam model. It's not without its plot holes but it's a non-stop train wreck of family and friend drama that constantly swirls and foments into a seemingly impossible to escape situation.The lead and supporting cast are perfect and the pacing and writing definitely comes from a filmmaker who knows what they are doing. This is the best film of it's type that I've seen since Project X, but steer clear if you aren't into teenage party films.

ambrosia_1 It is difficult to review this movie without spoilers because it is so disjointed.The opening scene is an extreme closeup showing only the audio and text of an online sex chat between teenage Kelly and various older men that are paying for the privilege of watching Kelly "perform" for them. But this scene is deceptive because it's not what the movie is about. It is merely to introduce you to the life of a young girl that is pure "id" (or "superego") caring only about herself.Kelly wants to "go pro" by starting a webcam site of her own, but again, that's not what the movie is about.Early on, we are introduced to Kelly's dysfunctional White Trash family for some insight on just why young Kelly is so troubled.Friends, family, everyone that gets sucked into Kelly's self-involved world ends up worse for it. Following a falling out with her on-again/off-again boyfriend, Kelly finds herself in a world of trouble, turning to one of her online clients for help. Things continue to spiral out of control and you are taken for a ride on one of the worst nights of anyone's life.The acting isn't awful, and despite an amateurish script, is worth watching till the end, but don't go looking for "King Kelly" on Oscar night.
