If ever a trailer did not depict what a movie is actually about it's this trailer for Universal Pictures' "Catfish", a movie about Facebook the subject matter of which could not be further from that other movie about Facebook. I'd like to use this sentence to say "Spoiler Alert" about fifteen times because the next couple paragraphs are going to be full of them. If you hate spoilers do yourself a favor and stop reading now. That said, the following exposition shouldn't prevent you from seeing the movie, I've seen it twice and enjoyed both times. "Catfish" is a movie about Nev Schulman, a 24-year-old New York photographer and his relationship with Abby Pierce, an eight-year-old girl and her 19-year-old sister Megan Faccio whom he meets on Facebook in 2007. I'm sure all of you can see this coming, but Megan isn't who she claims to be and neither is Abby. Nev and Ariel Schulman, Henry Joost and the viewer get taken for a wild and well-documented ride, especially for the last 40 minutes of the movie.
