Review of Nerve

Nerve (I) (2016)
8/10
Are you ready for your first dare?
16 October 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Vee (Emma Roberts) and Sydney (Emily Meade) are besties. Sydney plays an on-line game called "Nerve." It is like truth or dare except there is no truth. You pay to watch and you get payed to play, taking the dares of the watchers. Sydney coaxes Vee into playing and Vee quickly becomes more popular than Sydney as competition across NYC escalates to the point of being criminal.

The characters were very good and the film has a message about the responsibility that the viewer has, although that didn't play into the film until the very end. The production is aimed at people half my age. It is much better than a bunch of the cyber BS that is out there. So if you have grown weary of watching big foot found footage films and the cinnamon challenge on U-Tube, try this out.

Guide: No F-words that I recall. No sex. Emily Meade shows her butt on a dare.
