Plot: A duplicitous young man finds success in the dark world of social media smear tactics - but his virtual vitriol soon has violent real-life consequences. This young man searches for purpose in a net of hatred and violence that he tries to control.
My Movie Review: The movie is a fine dark thriller about an expelled university student from Warsaw who attempt's to steer the internet, causing widespread of anger, hatred and violence!! The Hater is disturbingly brilliant with its social relevance whilst fictional, the film does relate to ongoing real-life situations such as the use of social media to psychologically manipulate users and navigate public opinion through fake news most effective in detailing how disinformation campaigns work reveals horrors about our world that are sadly happening in a instant second:( Maciej Musialowski is looking mysteriously good with a face that's polarizing and dismissive this role fits him perfectly so well he has given a star making performance as Tomasz Giemza. For the viewers to understand his motives and even to sympathize to him due to pressures on youth in today's climate is an astounding feat of its own this actor could become a bigger star:0
Critic Reviews: There's an ambitious drive to The Hater that keeps it humming through its long running time. It could not be more relevant on a couple of different levels... [And] it is so suspenseful. An amazing and terrifying tale of cause and effect in the digital age. Often, The Hater plays like something Krzysztof Kieslowski might have made had he been desperate to get work in Hollywood. [Maciej Musialowski] is a wonderful actor. He has a way of contorting his face. He tells the story behind his eyes. For all its flaws, inconsistencies and credulity-stretching contrivances, I was mostly engross with The Hater from beginning to end. Relevant but very dark, violent, and disturbing drama. Although it is true that the plot is somewhat schematic, director Jan Komasa... lets it rise like dough. While the style is admirable and the ideas relevant to our present day, the lack of perspective for its central character prevents it from being great. The Hater is evidently promising effectively disturbing enough to recommend!
