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.

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.

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.

A mashup of different horror/thriller movies. Not real expensive to rent, but probably only worth it if you're completely new to watching horror movies. Otherwise you've probably seen similar movies that you might like even more. As far as the movie it got a lot of suspense. I liked the characters and I thought the Russia environment was creepy. I only thought the ending was rushed. It was the opportunity to give some depth and meaning to the story as social media played a big role in the movie. Overall the movie is a bit flat but does have a certain charm to it.

The film starts slowly and is not very interesting. Well copied at hostel, saw and escape room. Not a good film, although the film does have some nice moments

My earlier review which got more than 100 likes got deleted without containing any abusive or bad stuff.
Anyways i am happy that i managed to mess around certain fella's minds. Good to kno that certain irate fellas r monitoring my reviews n i am able to waste their time n energy.
I will keep it short as I am writing it again. The film has ample amt of tension n suspense throughout, some beautiful chicks n vibrant locations of Russia. The twist is solid. The director's earlier film Escape Room is bad but somehow he improved. Good to see some lovely locations of Russia compared to the dark n gloomy stuff which they show always.
Fans of 1986 April Fool's Day will definitely enjoy this.

What a friggin bore !!!!!! Do not waste your time. Was so boring & predictable !! You can see whats coming from the start. Badly written & even worst acting. None of the characters are likeable. Keegan Allen can't act his way out of a paper bag. Give this one a big pass !!!

I told my friends from the first 10 minutes what was going on. What would happened. He asked me how I could know that?! It's easy really, I have seen them all, movies since before 40 years ago. Seen them all. How the angles of the scenes were presented, the layout and all that. It's not a bad movie, it's fun in a way, just a bit to obvious and really lack of terror and mad gore.
Nothing surprised me in this movie and the end I saw coming for a looong time. Too bad, could have been more fun with a better cast and budget. But all in all an OK Sunday night movie to watch in the rain. I have seen much worse.
Me and my griends agreed on 6.2/10 Give it a go if you get it for free

You know a film is going to be bad when you hope the main protagonist will be killed as soon as possible. The acting is weak and cringy for the most part, the plot itself on paper is not bad, but wow this was an awful execution. This movie should be nowhere near a 5 star rating.

This film was incredibly cringing and had no storyline to it.

It wasn't that bad, the 2nd half got more Interesting and gory. Just a enjoyable movie to watch on a boring evening..
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.

Brainless entertainment, that's about it. It tries hard to be a mix of Hostel and Saw. If you can get past the cringingly bad lead actor, and most of the beginning, it's decent.

What are the haters expecting when they watch a film like this. To me this Hostel-inspired horror film delivers on all levels. The acting is above expectation in a low budget with no-name-actors and the story works well a through.
Sure the main character makes some questionable decisions, but that is kind of a part of the concept. Plus, the character isn't portrayed as the smartest kid on the block which makes it even more plausible.
I like it a lot and recommend it to anyone who likes the genre.

Gave it 10/10 just to get the rate a bit up, it is really a good movie, would be a 8/10 from a Big time horror fane! Defiantly a good movie, worth a watch!
