In a parallel world, Jigsaw has a brother, but sadly he was none too bright, and instead of coming up with a plan to punish, he has half an idea, it's not a bad concept, but it's obscured by ideas elsewhere, and poorly executed.

The idea is actually rather good, but it simply fails to satisfy on so many levels. First of all, I didn't really like any of the characters, so to be honest I couldn't care less when their numbers started dwindling. Many of the threads simply didn't hang together, it was almost all utterly nonsensical, so hard to believe in about 90% of what was going on.

The masked figure waiting in the wings...is lame!!!! It's so overdone it's unreal.

Nice ideas, but too flawed. 3/10

Horrendous characters can't die quick enough in this awfully scripted and delivered mess.

I can only guess they didn't have enough money to shoot everything in the script as it felt like watching one of these kind of films with a dozen or so scenes edited out.

The production values, photography and sets were pretty good for this but largely it seemed the writing let this film down.

I watched all the way through expecting a plot of some kind to develop but it never really did.

Early on a character is introduced and a big thing is made of them leaving, we never see or hear from them again, okay a red herring perhaps, but what spend five minutes of the film on it. Things go along pretty much in this fashion until the end credits.

The puzzles were mostly not very puzzle like and the fact that the characters guessed and solved what some of them were at all didn't seem very realistic at all other than it being the only way to move the film along.

The ending left several loose ends and was ultimately completely unfulfilling.

This movie is one of the worst I have ever seen. I was watching this film with about 7 friends, we honestly thought it was a parody at one point due to the ridiciously bad acting and storyline. The first 15 minutes of the film takes place in a restaurant with conversations between the main characters which can best be described as interesting as putting 5 Instagram influencers in a room and making them debate politics. Although, that's probably more interesting than what was spoken about in the film.

During the film almost everything was predictable, the acting was bad, the music was RANDOM and really added nothing at all but rather distracted from what the characters were doing and the nudity really also had no real benefit to the film.

Near the end we all expected some kind of plot twist where we would go "aha!" where we would understand the reason why this film even was added to Netflix but this revelation did not come.

Please, save yourself 1 hour and 30 minutes and go do something useful and enjoyable

So there actually is a group of people, producers/actors/writers, who consider this movie to be ok? Why in God's name would anyone attach his or her name to this production?

• What actually counts as an accomplishment is that the start of this movie, the dialogue, is so incredibly boring...as if the production teams does not want you to view further
• Random LA B-actor casting agency did it's job by selecting pretty, stupid, empty 'actors'
• Nothing is fun in this movie; the puzzles are stupid, you never feel involved as a viewer; no scares, no gore...just an empty shell
• There is no clue WHY things happen as they happen, no explanation, no satisfaction, terrible ending

This list can go on and on

I keep wondering why these movies are allowed to be made. Who gives money for this? How come people involved in this production set the bar so, so low. Shame on you!

This movie is an insult to viewers and MUST be avoided at all costs

This film has precious little to offer. If you enjoyed Saw, you'll probably like the traps in the room, but everything else is pretty garbage (and I mean pretty, because the sets, visual effects and cinematography are all fairly slick).

What's wrong with this film is a lack of likeable characters, any depth in their backstories, and any explanation of what it was all in aid of. The motives of the guy behind the escape room are never explained: the main protagonists are presumably being "punished" but we're never told why.

I enjoy a good trashy horror B-movie, but this is definitely not one of them. It's like they spent the whole budget on visuals, forgot they needed to hire a writer, and just let the actors run with a loose idea.

And not one of the actors gives a memorable performance at all.

At first Escape Room has a very strong Saw and Cube feel but it is nowhere close to both of em cos it is very boring.

The movie spends a large amount of time at a boring party, introducing viewers to some fairly unpleasant fellas before it even reaches the escape room. Then there is more time arguing inside the escape room before the action starts.

The character of Natasha is never shown dying; she's left behind in an enclosed room and has her arm...... but it's possible she could survive long enough to be rescued later.

The movie has too many whys.

Why was the character Christen locked in a cage, naked? Why does she get to live? We don't know who is the mastermind of the game. We don't know what the point was.

Good things : few death scenes n the attractive Elisabeth Hower. We get to see this beautiful woman naked.

For some reason Escape Rooms seem to be a thing, and I don't just mean out in the real world. The fad has inspired film makers and across 2 years we've had at least 4 movies with them at the core and 3 of them were simply called Escape Room. Original stuff huh!

This is the second of four that I've watched, the first being from the same year and starring Skeet Ulrich/Sean Young. That one was a tad better than this effort.

For those of you unfamiliar with an Escape Room it's a tourist attraction where a group of people are locked in a room (Or series of) and have to look at their surroundings solving puzzles in order to escape within an assigned time.

Here we see a group of friends participate in one for someones birthday and the experience gradually goes from fun to lethal. Whereas the Ulrich movie was supernatural this goes in more of a Saw (2004) direction.

Though the concept is sound the execution is rather lacking. Sure it looks the part but the delivery and the threat is poorly paced and the characters are simply not likeable. They range from obnoxious to blatantly bad folk that you can't exactly cheer on.

To make matters worse the movie fizzles out at the end. I believe a finale can make a terrible film suddenly great or a great film suddenly terrible. This made an average film, even more average.

The Good:

Solid concept

A few interesting puzzles

The Bad:

Naff deaths

Culminates in very little

Like everyone else said before..

Ok trailer. Interesting story line "Four friends test their intelligence in a game that takes a dark turn." Starts out with a nonsense scene, then comes the actual opening title which is VERY BORING and EVEN MORE BORING. Then comes the actual story which starts out ok.. Not good but ok and a little later everything goes total crazy, pointles and nonsense.

Really. One of the worst movies I've ever seen. The acting was ok. Everything else was basicly ok. But that script. Dude. That script is a nightmare. It is like almost the worst ever. How can they pay for it? But for real? I can't really think that anybody actually read the script before shooting.

And when they realized what a piece of ***** it was it was already too late.

One of, ok maybe THE worst film I've ever seen...Absolutely pointless.

I can appreciate what the writer was trying to do by setting up the characters and their failings but things do drag on. Putting cellphones in a box becomes its own scene. Long. Things are a bit better in the escape room but it leaves so many whys? Why? Then you sorta don't care.

If this movie was a little bit ok I wouldn't write anything because I almost never write reviews. Save yourself and not waste your precious time on watching this. So bad! Good idea bit bad acting, execution..low budget...

Before I decided to watch this movie, I read other people reviews. Many of them said that movie stinks and I really thought that it's not worth of my time. But because I needed something to fill my time I decided to watch it anyway. And I was actually pretty suprised. Some parts of puzzles aren't quite possible but everything is possible in movie world. I also read that the ending is horrible but I don't think that. We don't know who is behind all of these deaths and that is really missing but I think you should definetly watch this movie.

I'll give it 2 because the idea is good, however, execution is amateur work, acting is super bad, sometimes lifeless, sometimes over-overreacting. some of the overreacting is because of how the characters are written. Too many cliches too basic and expected story and characters.

You have a choice of three movies, each called "Escape Room". There are two from 2017 and one from 2019. Choose wisely, because only one of them (which I haven't seen) is a good film.

If you chose this one then sorry, you don't escape and die a horrible painful death by boredom and wondering what the hell you just watched and how you can ever reclaim the lost time.

A pointless plot. Meaningless characters (the girl at the start who just leaves the others - what was her purpose? The CCTV views at the end showing other people - purpose?). Puzzles that take no thought by the characters to solve.

Pretty awful.

Some people go to an escape room but soon it becomes apparent that it is a tad more deadly than the brochure made out.

This starts off quite well with the characters working through the puzzles whilst some relationship issues simmer in the background.

This I found interesting and good fun.

Then the Saw type traps get sprung.

From here on in it is just boring.

The previous issues between the characters lose all their currency as now people are just trying to avoid a grizzly death.

There are still puzzles to solve but now the women are all hysterical and weepy, the men are all aggressive and irrational - yawn - yawn -yawn.

The ending is just odd and made very little sense.

Seemingly as an after thought there is some nudity in the end of the film that was again just odd.

I am never one to sniff at a beautiful woman running around naked but even I found myself asking why?

I think this would have been better if it had toned down the slasher element and gone with something a little less bloody but more restrained.
