Do you dare? Do you have the Nerve? Kiss a stranger? Get a tattoo? Streak in public? Ride a motorbike blindfolded? What's next? Are you a watcher or player? Industrious high school senior, Vee Delmonico (Emma Roberts), has had it with living life on the sidelines. When pressured by friends to join the popular online game Nerve, Vee decides to sign up for just one dare in what seems like harmless fun. But as she finds herself caught up in the thrill of the adrenaline-fuelled competition partnered with a mysterious stranger (Dave Franco), the game begins to take a sinister turn with increasingly dangerous acts, leading her into a high stakes finale that will determine her entire future.

A pleasantly paced film that keeps going from start to finish. Currently, it's not such an original topic, but the film has good characters and great drive. It carries the film throughout and doesn't stop until it's over. Sure, it could have turned out differently, it could have been grittier, but even so, it's not bad.

A pleasantly modern thrilling ride that is frightening in how real it is and highlights the flaws of our times. Nerve has a nice pace, an attractive Emma Roberts, and playful visuals, and it manages to mine some decent suspense. One of those films that can be recommended to all from both an educational and entertainment point of view. 80%

The immensely sympathetic main protagonist, a current new idea and the beautifully colored camera surprised me and turned Nerve into a pleasant experience. The finale is, true, a little barren and the most thrilling scene was the motorcycle ride. However, watching till the end was not as much of a problem as it might seem after seeing the teaser.

Nerve is a very solid modern thriller that benefits from the behavior of modern youth, social media, the Internet, and mostly its anonymity. Well, and of course, it goes to the extreme. Personally, I have to say that, except for a few details when I would give the juniors a couple of slaps, and the unnecessarily hyped music, I was satisfied. What initially appeared to be just another nonsense for the youth is, in the end, a very clever and suspenseful thriller that will give some food for thought to everyone who was born in the age of the Internet and isn’t a hacker who undoubtedly knew these things a long time ago and can also use them, if they want. One of the most original movies of the year 2016.

I don't give a damn about how illogical it was, because I just enjoyed it. Nerve has a likable central couple, a very decent pace, plenty of suspense and a great soundtrack. Far from being just about entertainment, the movie also serves as a warning about the negative impact of modern technology and social networks on the lives of young people. Rapper Machine Gun Kelly makes a couple of cameo appearances as the bad guy and clearly enjoys it. (75%)
