Great documentary 7.5/10 It really shows how we're controlled by these Social Media apps. Worth watching.

Must watch, a glimpse of reality . Revealing ,Evil motives of silicon valley.

This movie was so boring I took out my phone

Dangerously one sided and ignorant

So important to watch this with the kids. Highly informative!

A documentary that exposes the double edged sword of the internet, all while having good direction is something we all needed

Everyone needs to see this movie, even if it's dull at times.

A must see! The Social Dilemma is a thought provoking must see documentary. I can't believe this was released back in 2020 and I'm just now seeing this. This is part documentary and also mini film combined. I left watching this analyzing how I'm spending time on social media and how it affects my daily life. When you watch this you will think about it more as well. It's scary how big tech companies are mining away at people who use their platforms to get more money for selling ads. This documentary was so interesting/informative and breezes by at a brisk 1 hour 30 minutes. This is one documentary that is very important to watch and one that families should see together. The Social Dilemma gets high marks across the board from me and gets 4 1/2 stars out of 5 from me.

Watched this documentary in my English class and then wrote a 4 1/4 page essay on why I believe it wasn't persuasive. Wanted to come on here to just give a shorter version of why I believe this. For starters; it can't even be considered a documentary. In broad terms, documentaries are factual and objective. Meaning that they give the facts while covering both sides if it. Movies, on the other hand are story telling, in simple terms. This movie follows a narrative and a story line that is all in all confusing as hell. It's extremely one sided as well. Usually, when presented information from one side of an argument in the topic the documentary is covering, the other side also gets covered. However, the only interviewees there was were people who agreed with the opinion that the movie is ultimately portraying. For my third reason; there's times where things that are said are completely contradictory to a previous thing having been said. In conclusion; this is a boring non-persuasive movie, not documentary, that even a toddler wouldn't find impressionable in any form. In all honestly, props to the movie for that one! Toddlers are extremely impressionable yet the movie won't be.

The kid with the Lisp made me mad and uncomfortable

Greatest piece of cinema ever created. I love The Social Dilemma. I can't wait for The Social Dilemma 2.

Quite honestly one-sided but entirely effective nonetheless, Jeff Orlowski-Yang's film on social media communicates solidly the imposing dangers of the digital world.

Definitely overwhelming, the Social Dilemma presents a tense docudrama that is both eye-opening and exciting. This is a film that will make you think about what you do on the internet and raised awareness because of that. Absolutely recommended

A truly deep documentary about the rise of social media and how it effects our current lives and how it will effect out future if we don't change anything. From the inner workings of the AI's that run these platforms to how our own self image gets warped within our phones. It is really amazing and I think everyone should watch this so we can at least understand the super computer we keep in our back pockets. I like how they touched on many consequiences of social media, from the youtube rabbit holes to "fake news" to addiction to our current political climate. It really has touched so many different points that technology has created for us. I also enjoyed how there was a fictional story (probably based on many true stories) throughout the documentary underneath what the experts were saying. It gives example to how this social climate has effected people of all generations but especially the younger ones who were the first to really use this technonolgy when it was released. The documentary does create a sense of dread near the end as we see that if we don't chnage the way these systems function and hold them accountable of their actions then it could truly be a dangerous future. I know it is important to state but it does make me scared for the future. Honestly a fantastic documentary that anyone with a smartphone should watch.

The documentary part of this really sucks in my opinion it sounds as if the people are over reacting and it is slow like seriously how is one of the guys in the documentary part addicted to gmail or was anyway the drama story part also was really bad the lighting was terrible and it felt over dramatised the only reason I gave this 1 star and not half a star is because it did make me laugh once in one of the A.I. parts with Vincent Kartheiser's

An amazing and insightful film delving deep into how social media uses data and controls our lives more than we can actually imagine. Some shocking facts revealed that will really make you doubt whether the benefits of social media are really worth it.

Really bad, don't watch

ok, this exists. That's great. The fictional family drama scenes are... a weird choice, but okay.

Ngl, the first part of it didn't capture me and was pretty boring since I already knew all of that, but when they started explaining how it's one of the reason's why there is so much polarity, populism and conspiracy theorists right now I got hooked. Wow.

An efficient but timid exercise in metacinema that would have worked better as non-fiction but that illustrates the terrifying reality of our increasingly connected world without unnecessary drama or diminishing the importance that the subject deserves
