What to Know

Critics Consensus

It's didactic in spots and melodramatic in others, but Disconnect's strong cast helps make it a timely, effective exploration of modern society's technological overload.

Leah Churner Austin Chronicle Come on, guys: There's nothing cinematic about Googling. Rated: 1.5/5 Apr 26, 2013 Full Review Nell Minow Movie Mom Sensitive performances from the entire cast are absorbing, especially Jason Bateman in his first full-on dramatic role. Rated: B Apr 19, 2013 Full Review Ann Hornaday Washington Post Handsomely shot and judiciously edited, the film benefits from a superlative cast ... Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 19, 2013 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Disconnect is brilliantly acted and staggeringly emotional, and it leaves you feeling guilty for every text, email, and Facebook post made after viewing. Rated: 4/4 Sep 6, 2022 Full Review Abbie Bernstein Assignment X Disconnect has suspense, grace and ultimately a sense of connection, all of which make it worth seeing. Rated: B+ Jan 26, 2019 Full Review Kelly Jane Torrance Washington Examiner Disconnect offers an important message... But it's not the full story of the power of the Internet. Rated: 2.5/4 Dec 19, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Carlos T Filme: Os Desconectados Assistido: 25-12-24 Elenco: @jasonbatemanupdates @alexskarsgardlove @hopedaviss @maxthieriot @paulapattonofficial @jonah.bobo @andreariseborough @frankgrillo1 Modelo: #drama #vidareal #suspense Duração: 2h Ano: 2012 Minha opinião: Um filme reflexivo, da atualidade que vivemos. Temos uma sociedade em transformação neste mundo da informática, da internet tem mudado a vida de milhares de pessoas. Onde a internet tem afetado a vida de pessoas de forma positiva e negativa. Viver hoje no mundo da internet é fato e isso não podemos ignorar, pois faz parte de nossas vidas. Otimizando e auxiliando, mas também pode virar nossas vidas de cabeça para baixo. E é oque este filme retrata. Desde sites de menores, bulling, jogos de azar, traições e golpes de cartões,..... E o filme retrata muito bem isso. E mais o filme se aprofunda em realação de um casal que estava se deteriorando por perda de um filho e o marido viciado em jogos e a mulher solitária tendo relacionamento virtual. Relacionamento de pai e filho que vive de forma solitária e recebe bulling na escola. E de jovens que são enganados para entrar na vida de sites pornográficos. E a consequência de tudo isso é que existe consequência. Roteiro e enredo muito bom e principalmente, reflexivo. Vale apena assistir? sim Nota: 8 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/26/24 Full Review KOOKLA C highly underrated! A hidden gem! Intense and sooo good! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/15/24 Full Review Stoner J Interesting little drama with a thriller, and vigilante twist. They tie together all the story lines seamlessly and overall this is a really good movie, well acted and directed as well. The whole grief parts can be boring at times but all the parents seeking justice (or revenge) , makes it all worth it! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/25/23 Full Review Jerod S I'm a sucker for bringing a slew of characters in on a common theme. Disconnect harps on the importance of family, of knowing and seeing your loved ones through struggle. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Tasteless chatting drama with exploitation at best. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review bill f Phenomenal film. Great acting all round from a superb cast. The intertwining storylines are all gripping and suspenseful and superbly and sensitively handled (reminds me a little of the equally excellent Crash and Happiness). A totally absorbing film and a must see. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/13/22 Full Review Read all reviews
