10x10

The stage curtains open ...

It's really hard to talk about this movie without spoiling it ... but, I will do my best not to. Let's just say that nothing is as it seems - sounds familiar, I know. It's another one of those kind of movies.

The movie starts with a man watching a woman, and then eventually, abducting her and taking her to his rural home in the trees. He drags her inside the house and throws her into a 10x10 padded room (hence the movie's title). Right away, you are intrigued. Why does he have her there? Why all the preparation of the room, hiding the room, and why her? The movie does a good job of building the suspense and the questions are coming up right and left as it begins to develop. I actually liked the story and the reason why she was there.

My problem with the movie, though, is in how the answer is delivered. I felt this was a missed opportunity for something really special. First - for having "months" to prepare for this, he really wasn't too bright. Abducting her in broad daylight, in the middle of a shopping center parking lot - she even got out some shouts for help (but, of course, the ONLY person in the vicinity is wearing headphones and listening to loud music...lol). Then when he gets home, before he takes her out of the trunk of his car, he just leaves the garage door open. There is a reason for this - a real eye roller too. And then he isn't quick to notice that she still has her cell phone on her, even inside the secret room.

She isn't too bright either ... for starters, there is one point in the film where she manages to knock him out cold. And instead of taking his gun, she wastes time trying to get out the door, use his phone ... pretty much everything except for the one thing she should have done. But, I guess if she would've done that, we'd have no spectacular ending - which really isn't that spectacular.

I can't recommend this one. The idea of the movie was better than the movie itself. This could've been so much better. The promise just got worse and worse as the movie wore on. Too bad. I just hate seeing great ideas go to waste like this one.

This film tells the story of a woman who is abducted to a remote house.

Most of the film only feature two people, and it is quite intense and suspenseful. The reason why the woman is abducted is only revealed at the 58 minute mark, which is a long time to wait! The house is beautiful and is exactly the style I like. Luke Evans is great in his role as well. The ending is a little far fetched, but the film serves the purpose of delivering suspense and thrill.

If you are just looking for anything to watch you should give this movie a try. Slow in some parts, and very predictable. Not only that, but the scenerios in the movie are very far fetched, and in my mind could not happen.

Not sure what the terrible reviews are about. This deserves at minimum 5-6/10. It's unique, it's got some thrills and great fight scenes. Give it a try, guaranteed your entertained.

A lot of people are saying that this film is bad. But as for me, it's kind of enjoyable. But I must admit that the plot is kind of simple and the whole film is kind of normal.

When I watched this film, I kind of wanted to have such a soundproof room. It really seems to be a good idea, especially the environment I'm currently living in. And the house is so cool. A simple house, but a good house.

Overall is that this film isn't that much good, but it's not bad either. At least, we can all learn the truth doesn't come easily and there is another truth under it. I don't know about the others, I really enjoyed the film.
