media technologies into your research paper, this movie is spot on! While the
story line is not new, the use of social media to move the plot is; not only is
social media used to send the messages, the various tweets, texts, and other
technologies are both the catalysts for the conflicts, and the ultimate glue
that holds the story together.

Despite a few expletives in both English and Spanish, the movie is family friendly with one of the main characters a 10 year-old boy who introduces his father to the real culprit - Twitter.
So, get some popcorn, call over a few friends and watch the
movie tonight. The film is available through Netflix, and Amazon ($2.99). Enjoy.
