Films are a subjective medium, therefore the interpretations can vary depending on who is watching and what kind of background they are coming from. I had read reviews from other critics suggesting that this might be a direct reference to creepypasta obsession or a general tendency of the naive youth who incline toward such supernatural happenings.

While I do not completely refute this set of statements, yet, with all due respect, I beg to differ. The film doesn't reflect any single obsession towards a particular subject, there's a broader thing at play, it is about this relentless infatuation with finding relevancy on the internet, finding comfort, or finding much-needed solace in the virtual space.

The narrative won't carry much weight for the people who hadn't experienced true loneliness, who hadn't had to endure the extreme ends of existential dread, who didn't suffer from any sort of depression, anxiety, or had to deal with a suicidal mindset, very rarely I say this but I will be much happier if you aren't able to relate.

To those who could, this message is for you...

I know life is hard, it's difficult dealing with the pain, at times it becomes intolerable, this pain becomes so excruciating that we often think of letting it all go, to disappear, I know, I had gone through that phase. To whoever reading this, just be aware that you are not alone in this battle, there are millions of people around the globe like you, trying to find their own places, their own identities. I just want you to hang on, keep going, keep fighting, trust me, you can overcome it, I know you will, till that day arrives, don't give up.

Never having heard about this 2021 horror drama titled "We're All Going to the World's Fair" from writer and director Jane Schenbrun, I happened to stumble upon the movie here in 2022. And of course, as I believe in given every movie I haven't seen a fair chance, I sat down to watch this movie.

Well, putting "We're All Going to the World's Fair" within the horror genre might be pushing the boundaries quite a bit, because the only thing scary in this 2021 movie was the lack of an interesting storyline, a pleasing narrative and the fact that something like this passes for a movie.

The storyline in "We're All Going to the World's Fair", as written by Jane Schoenbrun, was a complete and utter swing and a miss, especially in terms of it providing me with any entertainment. Nothing happened in this movie, aside from actress Anna Cobb - in the role of Casey - sitting in front of her computer and looking into the screen, doing a solo dance routine or sitting in the forest. It was just downright abysmal to watch, and even more so to suffer through.

Truth be told, after a mere 15 minutes then I was good and ready to turn off this train wreck of a movie, but I opted to stick with it. And I managed to endure a staggering 49 minutes of absolutely nothing. I kid you not, nothing happens in this movie. So if you have a grain of respect for our limited time on this world, do yourself a favor and skip on this movie.

I am rating Jane Schoenbrun's "We're All Going to the World's Fair" a one out of ten stars. This is definitely in the top three of worst movies I have ever come across.

The opening scene in 'We're All Going to the World's Fair' was very strange. I thought to myself, that's fine if that's how you want to set the stage for your film. Then the next scene was equally strange, and then the next as well - and I realised I was just in for a strange film overall. I didn't love this one.

There was a point where I thought the film was setting itself up to be an abstract version of 'Paranormal Activity'. I would've been okay with that. That wasn't the path it was ultimately choosing to go down however. The problem was I don't know what the path it was going down was. I simply didn't understand the film on the first watch. Or maybe I'm overthinking it and it's just as simple as it seems. If so, why was it worthy of making a film about?

The film isn't long at least. It would be hard to argue it outstays its welcome. It didn't work for me though and will be gone from my memory by this time tomorrow. 5/10.
