So, 'What Is Going On' is an interesting blend of mystery and thriller that really leans into the psychological aspects of its narrative. The atmosphere is thick with tension, especially as the teenager grapples with his Dream-reality confusion (DRC). You can feel the isolation of the character β the pacing really enhances that sense of dread as friends arrive but not necessarily to save the day. The practical effects used to depict his DRC moments are quite striking, adding a gritty realism that heightens the unease. While the director remains unknown, the performances are compelling, particularly the lead, who brings a relatable intensity to his struggle. Itβs a unique take on teenage loneliness and existential dread.
