Critics Consensus

Nerve's fast pace and charming leads help overcome a number of fundamental flaws, adding up to a teen-friendly thriller with enough energy to occasionally offset its muddled execution.

Nerve é um filme com um projeto de romance com a química mais inexistente que eu já vi entre dois atores, tem uma produção que não faz sentido nenhum (eles entram em uma simples cafeteria: filtro neon azul parecendo que estão em 2077, entram numa livraria: filtro azul estourando na vibe 2077, ATRAVESSAM A RUA: filtro azul estourando os olhos, NÃO FAZ SENTIDO ALGUM), personagens que ninguém se importa, uma trama tão adolescente que parece ser impossível de acreditar se sua descrença não tiver lá em cima, o estereótipo de "nerd" mais nada a ver que eu já vi e a única coisa que fica de interessante, é a ideia do aplicativo Nerve que poderia ter sido muito, mais MUITO mais explorada. No mais, parece só mais um filme pra pré adolescente e ainda sim é péssimo.

Filme: NEVER Assistido: 18-11-23 Elenco: @davefranko @emmaroberts @need4meade @machinegunkelly @younggoth @juliettelewis @kimikoglenn Modelo: #aventura #romance Duração: 1h 36m Ano: 2016 Minha opinião: Filmes que tem o celular como um protagonista. Aqui temos um App com jogos que podem levar a morte. Mas este não é o único, temos "A Hora da Sua Morte" e "Na Palma da Mão" este um filme coreano. Os 3 são distintos em sua propostas mas todos são suspense e bem feitos. Aqui temos um aplicativo que viraliou no meio dos jovens, onde ela propõe jogos, onde quando cada desafio é realizado, se ganha dinheiro e a pontuação que vai subindo, até que tenha apenas o duelo final. Confesso que gostei do filme pois assisti 3 X. Com uma boa atuação dos atores e aprosta crazy onde uma teen que não era descolada da turma agora se torna. Estamos falando de Emma e seu parceiro Dave, fazem um casal legal. O filme traz uma proposta diferente e com games legais. Uma boa fotografia. Roteiro e enredo bem construído. Vale apena assistir? Sim. Nota: 8,25

A few minutes in when I figured it was about teenage social media (yawn!), I feared the worst, but then it started to get interesting. The film is bathed in neon lighting and has an unusual synth musical score which make it cool to watch. After the obligatory character introductions are sorted, the story proper starts to develop and the film is very entertaining for the most part with plenty of action and a few surprises along the way. The only problem is the ending, which I found very unsatisfying. It's as if the producer shouted "times up", when they were only part way through. With a better ending this film could have been really good.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Had Nerve stuck to the intrigue around online games, it could have been an efficiently entertaining piece of cinema.

Rated: 2.5/5

Sydney Morning Herald

The denouement is ridiculous, the conclusion sketchy and the script's attempts to be hip are, in the end, slightly pathetic.

Rated: 2/5

The secret weapon of the film is cinematographer Michael Simmonds, who has a whole bag of tricks up his sleeve.

A neon-drenched thrill ride with a pair of really engaging lead performances by Roberts and Franco. It's a shame it falls apart in the ridiculous third act because the rest of the film is legitimately really fun
