that was just.. wow. talk about idiocy. do people actually do things like this? why were all of the characters so hateful? were we supposed to feel bad for the girl who got broken up with? who says "that's my seat freak" out of middle school anymore?

the little things irritated me. i don't get how people would respond to texts, and then five seconds later the text would be as if it was just received. so what are they, psychics? can they get texts in advance before it shows up on the phone? wow, magical, i wish i had that power. great editing, mtv. just great.

the black guy wasn't even believable. it seemed to me like he just went crazy off the drop of a dime. they rushed character development and made everyone irritating to watch. the plot was retched and predictable. i knew what was going to happen from the moment i saw them appear on screen.

why was everyone in their underwear? do people just webcam other people in their undies all the time, like no big deal. i'm just going to show you my panties as i put on my jeans. skype party peep show.

no hope for earth anymore.like does this still go on where people think it's okay for anyone to NOT have a webcam? come on, why is everyone so gullible. you can get a webcam for 5 freaking bucks!! the plot would've been waaay more believable if he was her real life boyfriend who pressured her into sending him pictures. because that's how it ALWAYS HAPPENS! not, i met some random model on fb and now i'm going to randomly send him my b3wbs because i'm an idiot.

I liked your review. I liked CHATROOM much better. At least..you wanted to see where the story went. I really enjoyed most of those characters interacting.

Maybe this movie had too many characters. I understand their point, but I did find myself looking at the clock while watching this thing.

One wonders if MTV's trying to govern themselves too much after the SKINS controversy and all.

I see why this movie was called disconnected; I felt so disconnected watching this *beep* It had potential and good message, but the delivery was horrible. The story moved along too fast; not to mention all the random characters. I think they should have stretched it out to a mini series instead of a movie because it was too much going in in such a short time.

yea, i thought the characters were annoying. no one acts like these teens in real life. Everything was too over-dramatic.

i thought the movie in theory was good but it wasn't executed well.
