Reviews
"The Hater" has received generally mixed to negative reviews from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, the film holds a modest rating of 4.5/10, reflecting lukewarm audience reception. Critics have noted that while Joey Ally delivers a compelling performance, the film struggles with pacing and depth in its storytelling. Some reviewers appreciated the attempt to tackle the relevant topic of online hate culture but felt the narrative lacked nuance and suspense. Rotten Tomatoes does not have enough critic reviews to provide a reliable score, indicating limited critical coverage. Metacritic similarly shows an absence of substantial critical consensus. Audience feedback points to predictable plot elements and a reliance on genre tropes, with some critics calling it an "ambitious but ultimately underwhelming thriller." However, the film's exploration of cyberbullying and internet hostility has been praised as timely and thought-provoking, making it a conversation starter despite its shortcomings.
