Based on a fascinating true story, Uwantme2killhim is a miserable, dread inducing slice of Skins flavoured social realism set in 2003, in the early days of social networking. Everyone was more ignorant of their digital footprint and less cynical in their interactions with others and whether that's a good thing or not is up for debate considering all that has happened since then.
Uwantme2killhim is a well acted, well shot, well scripted British drama I'm surprised I haven't heard of before. At times, it is a painful watch as characters make very believable decisions, manipulated in ways that are all too familiar to us now. You have probably heard a story like this before, the young and the ignorant, the bored and the callous, such stories have the ability to severely cripple your faith in humanity.
Uwantme2killhim excels at prodding at this faith, mixing together solid chemistry between actors with direction that near effortlessly provokes paranoia. Films like Uwantme2killhim are the reason why Britain is considered to be a drama powerhouse. It's realistic, emotional and at times truly harrowing. It is an exceptional work.
