Personal Review
Okay, so I watched this with my friends, and we mostly just laughed the whole time. It’s one of those movies that’s so bad, it’s good, you know? Like, Bella Thorne’s character is supposed to be scary, but sometimes she’s just… extra. Honestly, the ending was a bit of a letdown, but the sheer ridiculousness of the whole thing made it a fun, if not exactly *good*, movie night.

Professional Reviews
- IMDb Critic: “It’s a by-the-numbers stalker thriller. While the cast is attractive, the plot is predictable, and the dialogue often clunky. It’s passable for background noise, but don’t expect any genuine thrills or surprises. The film feels like a watered-down version of similar movies that explored obsession with more depth.
- The Cliché Critic: “Though predictable with cringe acting the movie manages to remain entertaining through out the film. Halston Sage, Bella Thorne and Taylor John Smith deliver solid performances that make up for lack luster writing. If you are able to stomach clichés then this movie is the one for you.
Audience Reactions
Bella Thorne’s performance as the unhinged Holly was the best part.: Many viewers found Bella Thorne’s portrayal of the obsessed character to be memorable, even if the rest of the film was lacking.
The movie has a few good thriller scenes, but is very predictable.: While somewhat thrilling, the movie is often criticized for following clichés.
Overall Consensus: Overall, ‘You Get Me’ is generally considered a predictable and poorly executed thriller, though some find it entertaining in a ‘so bad it’s good’ kind of way, mainly due to Bella Thorne’s performance. Many view it as a waste of time.
