Review: Put down that phone, urges doc 'The Social Dilemma' Social media connects us and also divides us“The Social Dilemma” is the first film you'll watch and immediately want to toss your smartphone into the garbage can. “I couldn’t help myself.”The documentary is a well paced, absorbing look at the deep costs of Big Tech — fake news, election security concerns, radicalization, polarization and much more. So he also employs a gimmicky family of five actors — two parents, three teens — to dramatize the lure of social media in a clunky way. Orlowski would have done better interviewing real teens buffeted by social media and real people caught up in conspiracies. They don't let their kids use social media.
