Critics Consensus

Infamous attempts to level an indictment against modern youth, but only manages to offer a forgettable story with little of interest to say.

Peter Bradshaw

Guardian

It's never easy to represent online existence in a feature film and this is another movie that has fallen short. Some serviceable action sequences, though.

Rated: 2/5

Doing it for the 'gram means doing it for, well, nothing - nothing tangible, nothing that lasts, and "Infamous" fares far better when it embraces that kind of bleakness.

Rated: C+

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

It comes off as a lightweight indictment of a generation that actually does care about things.

Who's in the mood for a misanthropic movie about hopelessness and Instagram?

Shadows on the Wall

A teen fantasy that merges celebrity with life on the edge. Not much about the film is believable, and pretty much everything has been lifted from other movies, including settings, relationships and dialog.

Rated: 2/5

Tackles the perils of social media like a parent trying to navigate TikTok.

Terrible movie. I think Bella Thorne has much more talent and this fare I should be much more selective in her choices of films. She has yet to have a hit and something that showcases her abilities. I hated the the attempted message on the social media boom. I understood it's point but the execution was poor.

If I could unsee this, I indubitably would. There are a lot of quotes supposed to be filled with meaning copy-pasted on a very, VERY shallow content. The whole plot is a messy teenager crazy act, that treats human life very lightly. Yeah, we all get the feeling that the main character finds obviously more important what's happening on the social media than EVERYTHING else. The ways of portraying this social crisis are just as the movie itself, a failed attempt.

It had the potential to be a good story, but the end killed it.

Ava D

A disappointing film that struggles to depict online life in a meaningful way, despite some serviceable action scenes. The movie lacks originality, and it is clear that the writer-director has borrowed ideas from better films--Bonnie and Clyde and Natural Born Killers, notably. Ultimately, this film fails to offer anything fresh or noticeable and falls far short of its potential.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Kyle M

Attempted satirical scolding onto the modern youth's obsession with whatever social media freely offers, but that's the only signified twist among the inspired unoriginality deriving from multiple similar narratives impressively compiled into one, then furthered differentiated by baseless developments, which leaves Thorne pressured in carrying the film with her pretentiously corrupted channeled embodiment as addition to the unappealing characterizations. (C-)
