Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Absolutely Fantastic
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
The pace of story was weak at first, the concept of the idea had great potential, but the outcome of the whole thing ended poorly. There was more whining than there was killing. When I heard about this movie, I was kind of picturing Would you rather meets Saw. In conclusion, the movie itself performed poorly
There's something vaguely 80's about this movie - a time when you could still get a fair bit of money to make a film with no purpose, and stand a decent chance of it making it in front of a few people. The violence, of which there is a staggering, ugly amount, is very of the moment, but not in any considerate or thoughtful way. This is a profoundly thoughtless movie, with a few good actors struggling to find something to cling onto - but in a movie with no point, and no message, nothing but brutality and a camera that lingers over pain, they never find it. This film made me feel really bad. I'm sad that I watched it. The trailer was cut like it was a dark comedy, and there's just...nothing even vaguely amusing about this. It's not even imaginative horrible violence and cruelty, you've seen it all before, and the direction flops between explicit, Raimi-esque fountains of blood and people dying because they got bopped in the head. It's miserable, and you can find something better to watch.
The Belko Experiment, Saw meets Battle Royale. Not a patch on either of those films, but the slightly lo-fi production really gives this an edge and it's very effective. Kill or be killed. Good guys, bad guys, really bad guys. It's a moral bloodbath!
Call me old-fashioned, but I believe even in the thriller/horror genre an interesting story and character development is a must for a successful film. This film feels like an overplayed improvisation game that the actors played in order to warm up for the real performance - not realising it was the actual film. As I started watching this film I thought to myself, "I think I'd rather watch the effects of starving rats in a cage. Least the drama would be authentic." So bored of this voyeuristic snuff pulp. Only possible reason that someone would enjoy watching this trash is because they secretly wish to kill a colleague at work, and perhaps need to seek professional help instead.
