Decent Enough Horror Watch

It's not really scary, but it's entertaining with its really good moments.

It has the right balance of the older nostalgic effects as well. The ending is a bit weak, especially compared to how strong the start is. Worth a watch, but not with high hopes since it does have themes seen in other horror films. So it's not the most original, but it's fun to watch if you are a horror fan.

The overall plot isn't the most in depth, but it works. The acting is decent enough too. I've seen much worse.

A short film idea stretched into 85min movie

I believe it would have been an interesting short film about retro game that takes over control and forces you to make awful choices.

However, the movie falls short with a regular length runtime and proves to be a drag devoid of any real excitement. As many before mentioned, it's just plain boring.

Leading duo does a decent job but underdeveloped script gives them little to work with.

Almost impossible to get through in one sitting.

Would have rather avoided it.

4 out of 10 from me.

Good idea, entertaining to me.

Once again I'm amazed by the extremely negative reviewers on here. It's like people like to complain about everything nowadays. Choose or Die might not be the greatest movie ever, we can all agree on that, but to me it was certainly good enough to entertain me the whole time. Nice refreshing story, with good ideas, and a decent production. I thought Lola Evans and Asa Butterfield, playing the two main characters, did a pretty good convincing job. As a fan of retrogaming it was even nicer to watch, reminded me of my youth sometimes. So in conclusion, if you want something else in the mild horror genre Choose or Die is a nice option.

A colossal mess

I had high expectations for this, figured an 85 minute movie about an interactive video game would be engaging enough. Honestly could have been a 20 minute short story. While the acting was good and there were a few jump scares, the explanation of the game's cryptic symbols and how the cursed players are selected was lacking in my view. This was a downer overall.

Not great...not terrible

It's one of those movies that falls into the mediocracy area pretty quickly. The acting is ok (Eddie Marsan is the stand-out as always) but the plot is just tired, old and predictable.

It's not a movie I'd explicitly pay to watch but if it appears on your favorite streaming service(s) give it a watch while you do something else.

The coordinates 44.02 74.17 are actually for Shu District, Kazakhstan. Assuming the final boss battle takes place in America, the correct coordinates are 44.02 -74.17, which is Newcomb Central School District, Newcomb, NY.
