The movie was good. It's a classic type of thriller with classic plot twists schemes. It looks kinda cheap, I mean budget of it looks kinda low. I do not demand a high budget to enjoy a movie. I like even trash movies. If it's a good story this is the most important. The story in this thriller is good, so I enjoyed it. Maybe it has some logical flaws at points, but not crucial at all. Some actors didn't act too well. Only the main actors did a good job. And at some points even a really good job. The location of the storage place was unusual enough so it felt fresh to make me curious where it all will go. So if you looking for a high budget movie then you maybe should skip it. Because it doesn't look high budget. If you OK with low budget movies, then you might really enjoy this. If you watched too much thrillers you might guess what will happen approximately. So what. Also English is not my main language.
Not great, not terrible...
i think what made this work was the good acting of the young woman lead, isabelle fuhrman, and don johnson...who had some good dramatic moments. Both seemed to hit all the right notes at all the right times... i think fuhrman might be around for a while. It was an interesting story but, me having seen lots and lots of movies and having read a lot, as well...a lot of the important points were predictable to me...still...i imagine the writer hasn't done much writing yet but this wasn't a bad start...B movie, in this case, doesn't stand for bad if you're ok with watching a good performance by Johnson and a surprising performance from Fuhrman.
Unit 234 delivers a solid mix of suspense and character-driven storytelling, but what really stood out was Isabelle's performance. For once, we see her playing a normal, sane character - which was quite strange in itself given her usual roles. That said, she absolutely pulled it off. Her portrayal feels genuine, grounded, and likeable, adding a layer of realism that made the whole film more engaging.
The plot moves at a steady pace, keeping you interested without relying on over-the-top action or cheap thrills. And just when you think you've figured it all out, a nice twist hits at the end - one I genuinely didn't see coming.
Overall, Unit 234 is worth a watch. It's refreshing, well-acted, and has just enough mystery to keep you hooked until the credits roll.

I love Don Johnson, so it's tough to see him in films of such questionable quality.
The premise of the movie is actually quite solid. At first, you think the mystery revolves around Unit 234, but it turns out the real intrigue lies in Don Johnson's character. He's the only one who delivers a believable performance. The rest of the cast - his henchmen, the storage unit manager, the boyfriend - all give embarrassingly bad performances. To be fair, the script doesn't give them much to work with.
The movie awkwardly throws in bits of backstory out of nowhere, presumably to add depth, but the execution is so poor it ends up being unintentionally funny.
And throughout the movie, you'll constantly be asking yourself: Why doesn't anyone run or call the police? You'll find yourself shouting at the screen, just like when watching a low-budget slasher, hoping the characters make at least one smart choice.
But the silver lining is the final act. The last 20 minutes feel like they were written by someone entirely different - a genuinely surprising plot twist wrapped inside an otherwise terrible script.
Don Johnson's performance in the final scenes is genuinely strong. Did I mention I love Don Johnson?
If you're expecting something great, stay far away. But if you go in with zero expectations and just want to kill some time, it might actually be worth a watch.

I'll watch Isabelle Fuhrman in anything, but this was a disappointment. A mediocre thriller with a plot that's never surprising given the conventions of the genre, and is helped along by implausible events to a climax that had me laughing out loud. The dialogue is obvious, the directing is uninspired, and the acting is actually pretty good.
Fuhrman can't miss, but this movie belongs to Don Johnson, in a subtle role as an ambiguous baddie. Some of the thugs are pretty good too. The boyfriend character is completely unnecessary and his key scene is not even on screen. Overall a not terrible dumb movie with some good performances.
