If Saw, Escape Room and Hostel had a baby. Just a fun little movie. The ending though....

Actually, the first half of this movie is better than the second half. The second half just wants to be a poor remake of Hostel and Saw. I don't want there to be any spoilers in my review, but let's just say the ending could REALLY have been better. As for the acting, it was mediocre at best. If you're like me, though, and you've absolutely run out of movies to watch, I gave it 5 stars only because everything else that's new sucks worse than this.

If you enjoy any sort of horror creepy genre, then you'll see this movie coming a mile away. I was sort of excited to see a well filmed horror piece as I hit play, but honestly I knew the ending before the first 20 minutes. Yes it's been done, no it wasn't that great, if you're looking for a better version, try The Game, if you're looking to waste time and be a little entertained, try this.

Someone sat down and thought of a bunch of horror movies and ripped off ideas from 3 that I can think of. Hostel and Escape Room being two. A low budget to stick to, which really was painfully apparent.

Throw in some extremely egotistical dislikeable characters who most of I really didn't care if they lived or died. I actually zoned out for a good 5 minutes through boredom and thinking about my to do list. Yes, the prospect of housework was more exciting than this movie. Despite zoning out I didn't miss anything.

4 stars is being generous, but I'll give the extra star for the twist which was quite good, but didn't make up for the 90 minutes I'd already endured.

Go watch Haunt 2019 instead for an exciting and good escape horror movie. Which incidentally is produced by the director of Hostel.

The highlight of this film is Keegan Allen's performance. Playing an obnoxious Logan Paul social media influencer type character you can't help but hope he gets killed first. However he ends up being one of the few redeeming qualities of this film.

The film takes a while to get going trying to get you to care about the characters but you won't. Once it finally does - you find yourself watching a crossover of Escape Room, Saw and Hostel. All far superior films.

My partner was bored and predicted the ending however I was still entertained and was very intrigued as to how it would all end. Once it finally does - you're kind of glad it has. It is not a terrible film though and is still worth a watch for any fan of the horror genre.
