Nerve is a dizzyingly of-the-moment good time, a dystopian meet-cute in present-day New York.

It gets off on the highwire fun of living on a digital dare and then pisses away its provocations by lecturing us with a metaphorical take on social media as an STD. What a buzz kill.

Nerve looks fabulous and the pace is evenly adrenalized, which makes up for cliched characters, a concocted premise and commentary that is a bit on the nose ...

"Nerve" is sharp looking and delivers real jolts, even if the climax pushes things a bit far and wraps up too easily. Or maybe it's an accurate look at what'll happen when "Nerve" becomes real?

Like one of its daredevils hanging one-handed from skyscraper scaffolding, Nerve mostly manages to maintain its precarious balance of pulpy suspense and social commentary.
