Rating: 3.5/5 --
As cautionary tales go, "Disconnect" is a pretty good one, but it's not really a whole lot more than that.

Journalists lie, spouses stray and thieves steal, but "Disconnect" keeps trying, unsuccessfully, to pin the blame on technology rather than its users.

It's left to the actors to make up for the gaffes, and they're definitely up to the task.

Screenwriter Andrew Stern smartly sees that our devices are just devices....It's the fallout that holds our interest...
Los Angeles Times
[A] timely and often poignant drama....It's enough to make you want to unplug everything and go live in a yurt. -- Grade: B
Entertainment Weekly
The tightness with which the strands are drawn makes DISCONNECT unsettling to watch as its characters and vignettes jostle one another like riders in a jammed subway car. The film ominously conveys a world of too much information but too little communication...

Product Description:
MURDERBALL co-director Henry Alex Rubin explores the destructive potential of the Internet in this ensemble drama starring Jason Bateman, Hope Davis, and Alexander Skarsgård. His marriage dissolving before his very eyes, a former marine (Skarsgård) ruins his credit by gambling online as his wife (Paula Patton) strikes up an intimate relationship on a popular social-networking site. When identity theft puts their lives savings at risk, the couple track down the man (Michael Nyqvist) they believe is responsible for the crime. Meanwhile, an introverted teenage goth (Jonah Bobo) becomes the victim of a humiliating prank when his two biggest tormentors pose as the girl he likes, and trick him into exposing his true identity online. When the prank leads to tragedy, the young victim's mother (Davis) is overwhelmed by grief as her husband (Bateman) explodes with rage. Later, an ambitious TV reporter's quest to expose an online prostitution racket has unexpected repercussions for the frightened young man at the center of the growing controversy.
