Catfish

This film revolves entirely around social media. It is shot as a documentary, which makes the viewer feel like they have an insight to what is going on. The use of newer technology and social networking also allows people to relate to the movie, considering there are now over 250 million users of Facebook. The viewers are constantly seeing one of the following: Facebook, Google Maps, Google Talk and iTunes. The movie is well applied to what is actually going on with our Internet and social media today. It reminds people that connecting through social networks can be advantageous, but it also reminds the viewer that this type of networking does not allow you to know just who exactly is on the other end of the line.
