Computer Boy dives deep into the psyche of a teenager, Murry, who's way too hooked on the internet. The film has this almost dreamlike quality as it explores his life through a fragmented narrative, mixing past, present, and future. I mean, it’s not flashy, but there's a certain rawness to its storytelling that feels very real. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it really adds to the disorientation of Murry's journey. I found the practical effects to be quite effective in illustrating his emotional state, almost haunting at times. Performances feel genuine, especially Murry's, which brings a depth that resonates, even if the direction isn't well-known. It’s a unique slice of modern teenage angst.
