Review of Catfish

Catfish (2010)
8/10
You've Got to Laugh - Catfish Caught You Hook, Line and SUCKER
1 February 2011
Despite what you read from those who threw their toys out the pram after investing anticipation in the trailer, this is a little bit of genius.

Documentary or mockumentary? It swallowed me whole, certainly, without resorting to clichés; kept me edge of my seat awaiting the next disturbing development as the 3 New York marks dig deeper into their facebook relationship.

Any attempt to divulge plot/events would spoil your enjoyment.

If you've not seen this,s top reading after this review and go watch with an open mind. You cannot help but be captivated.

As for the moaners who felt cheated by the trailer: LMAO, in internet parlance. Didn't you get it? 'Catfish'. The title, as explained late in the film, the practice of placing a catfish amongst cod to keep them fresh and on their toes during round the world carriage.

The trailer is/was also a 'catfish', you muppets. Kept you right on your toes, didn't it? Buzzing for the movie you thought you were going to see. You cod. ;)) Great and different watch. 8 of 10.
