The film doesn't rely on outlandish chance or coincidences, either -- like Crash. it seems kind of melodramatic that every character in a movie about technology features characters whose lives revolve around some major issue related to technology.

Apr 18, 2013 · Some viewers and critics have labeled “Disconnect” an overwrought melodrama whose messages aren’t especially original. However, I would contend that heartfelt emotion – the kind often on display in this film – is not the same as melodrama, and it’s refreshing to see a movie that reflects this quality as well as this one does.
An estranged couple uses the internet as a means to escape from their lifeless marriage. A widowed ex-cop struggles to raise a mischievous son who cyber-bullies a classmate. An ambitious journalist sees a career-making story in a teen that performs on an adult-only site.
