Starring Emma Roberts and Dave Franco, Nerve tells the

story of a shy and introverted girl, Vee (Emma Roberts), and her

quest to prove herself as daring by joining an online game called

nerve. The game consists of various dares that are taken by

players in order to win money. The person that takes the highest

amount of dares wins the entire competition. While playing

Nerve, Vee meets Ian (Dave Franco), and they begin to perform

dares together. Vee and Ian climb the scoreboard, and suddenly

see themselves in the top 10. The dares become more and more

dangerous, and Vee finds herself trapped in a high-stakes game

that could end her life.

Nerve is a thriller/action movie that will leave you on the

edge of your seat even until the last few minutes. Watching the

dares that each person performs and whether or not they

succeed is nerve wracking but also exciting. Nerve is extremely

fast paced, with no boring or filler moments. Every second of it is

intense and unpredictable. Vee, the main character, is a relatable

character at first who is shy and awkward, but then becomes

adventurous and a daredevil in just one night, fueled by the

desire to prove everyone wrong.

The movie also explores deeper topics as well, such as

cyberbullying and anonymity on the internet. The “watchers” of

the game, who view the dares but do not participate, hide behind

anonymous usernames, but in the end they are just as in the

game as the players. The resolution to the story shows us that

even bystanders to a horrific situation are responsible for its

consequences.
