Silly, weird, but overall just okay. Fast paced and very modern, if you are into that sort of thing. A movie geared more toward younger audiences, it would seem, rather than appealing to the masses.
Trigger Warning F Word, R Word
⭐⭐⭐
This movie is right away giving Creep vibes and or vibes of a man pushed too far. It seems like our guy, Kurt, is gonna hurt his passengers (on the rideshare app called Spree) and make them do crimes for/with him but that is just my educated guess. Or he will just be hurting them it seems. First he is just getting them with drugged water bottles, then he runs one rude guy over. Next he lets junkyard dogs after Frankie Grande and his friend. Basically Kurt is trying to do anything to get views but it isn’t working (I know that life). We meet Jessie who he gives a ride to and he is very jealous of her big comedian following. Kurt tries talking with his friend who is a more popular content creator but the kid makes it very clear he doesn’t like Kurt and never really has. That is okay with Kurt though because part of his lesson involves killing his friend.
Kurt ends up picking up his junky dad who takes him to a strip club where a popular DJ will be. DJ Uno is there and Kurt really wants her to tag him on her profile. He takes her to a taco truck like she asks, he gets her food but while he is waiting in line she takes Kurt's gun and drinks the drugged water. She passes out and two policemen pull up and start asking questions. While Kurt is being questioned Uno wakes up, panics, and shoots a police officer right in the head. Because of this Kurt is able to escape. He begins the car chase on the interstate going the wrong way while streaming. I have no idea how he did those things at the same time without crashing. He is able to get away to a homeless camp and then he flips his car. We flip over to Jessie who is doing her show and who is in the audience but Kurt with his gun. But what have we here? Jessie is quitting social media! She even destroys her phone to make her point! This foils Kurt's plans. Kurt gets another rideshare (this time from a different app as Spree is shut down due to the murders) and takes that guys car (obviously murdering him) and miraculously is the car that picks up Jessie after her set.
While driving her home, Kurt drops that he was her driver from earlier in the day and Jessie begins to feel very unsafe. She asks Kurt to let her out but he will not. He starts to talk all crazy about them being together and getting so many followers. Jessie tries to choke him out but he just punches her out. Then he is about to run her over with his car but she is able to run away in time and pull a switch on him and get the car and almost run him over. They make it to Kurt’s house by Jessie driving the car into the living room and the dad comes in and is so upset and high but then he sees that the mother is dead on the floor. Kurt had done that way earlier in the day, it was his first crime. Now, Kurt takes his gun and kills his father. He then turns the gun to Jessie but she drives the car further into the living room, crushing Kurt into the wall. To make sure he is dead she bludgeons him with the phone that is still streaming and then she takes a selfie with his corpse. Pretty brutal! The rest of the movie is the fallout and the following created by Kurt's actions. It also shows that the idea of this movie is that it was made by a fan who compiled all of the videos collected from Kurt's crime Spree.
