THERE is absolutely no doubt that the internet has made life easier, but we cannot overlook the negatives that accompany it.

Disconnect explores cyber- bullying, identity theft and child pornography that litters the world wide web.

Jason Bateman plays the father of a child who tries to commit suicide after he sends a nude picture of himself to a girl he met on Facebook.

Unfortunately for the boy, the girl's profile is a fake creation by two bullies at school and they share thepicture with the entire school.

In a parallel story a couple is also faced with the reality of losing their livelihood after hackers steal their identities.

The movie marks the acting debut of fashion designer Marc Jacobs who plays a child-pornography boss.

One of his charges grants an interview to a reporter who promises him anonymity, but when the FBI discovers this, things begin to fall apart.

Disconnect is a simple, but nonetheless engaging film that will leave you wondering whether it is such a good idea to buy your children that iPad they have been asking for.

If you are an online shopper, you'll be concerned about giving your banking details online.
