The Immaculate Room

I loved this movie. It was a similar concept with a different story. Personally I have always enjoyed one room movies because it depends on the story telling not visual effects. I won't give anything away, watch it for yourself and form your own opinion there is too much he said she said in movies these days we should all enjoy what we enjoy, too many great movie are getting over looked because the critics turn there nose up when they see something that may resemble something from the past but let's be honest alot of mainstream movies have gone to cr#@. All I will say is I do NOT feel as if my time was waisted and I hope there is a second movie.

It's hard to imagine a more obviously COVID-era movie, made in strict isolation with a small handful of actors, some of whom never even meet each other and talk only to a camera in another room.

On one level it's admirable that they tried to keep on making movies in such an incredibly challenging time, but it already feels dated and claustrophobic and it's just obvious that it exists only for the reason of producing content during a pandemic.

There is practically nothing that happens in it that comes as any kind of surprise, and there's no original, meaningful or particularly convincing moments that occur at any point.

To be fair, there's nothing glaringly BAD about it, either, just the perpetually nagging feeling that it wouldn't exist at all if not for some head office instruction to continue pumping out streaming content at all costs when the barrel is otherwise scraped dry.

The Immaculate Room, is as the synopsis states...a movie where you spend 50 days in a white room, and by completing this you win $5 million.

It's as described on the tin. Plot wise, it seems like its going to be like other similar titles such as Phonebooth, The Circle, The Platform, Cube, etc....but this movie really goes nowhere. There is no tension. And while I really like the main actors, its hard to suspend your disbelief that people would really act this way and be so self destructive when theyre constantly reminding themselves its $5m on the line.

Really theres quite a lot of stimulation. Theres actually 2 rooms. Plenty of space to be active and move about. The lights are dimmed every night (not constantly on and over stimulating), and there are various treats and such that add stimulation to the time, so really its hard to believe that people cant do 50 days.

There's no twist or pay off for the little bit of tension in the movie either. The movie really goes nowhere so can't really recommend it.

When one places 2 actors in 1 room and there is nothing else but a white room, then THE ACTING becomes paramount.

The bad; the problem with this movie is that we get to see 2 decent actors, who cant elevate this movie though to a higher level. I really do like both actors, but they aint Oscar winning performers.

More bad: the direction isnt gripping. It's missing spark and punch. Part due to the story being dull and predictable, part due to the direction itself.

Nice idea, mediocre execution.

Mikey Walsh (Emile Hirsch) and Kate Frith (Kate Bosworth) are a troubled couple with a chance to win $5 million. They have stay in an all-white room for 50 days to win that money. It's called "The Immaculate Room". Simone (Ashley Greene) is an actress sent into the room as one of Mikey's "treats".

This is a high-concept indie with some recognizable faces. The concept may be edgier when reality-TV was in its infancy. In the year 2022, this movie is barely a blip in the conversation. It wouldn't make for great TV and this is a rather slow movie. The tension is never that high despite all the manufactured drama. I do wonder if the writer comes up with the concept first and write around it.
