Featured reviews
This movie had no action, no thriller and it's definitely not a horror movie. I am not telling "movie lovers" not to watch 247^F, cause everyone has there own reason to or not to like a movie. I didn't like it at all. And that is my opinion.
Well you can tell by all the other reviews how this movie landed, so I'm not gonna beat a dead horse.
Story is pretty lame, plain, and predictable. It's actually the characters that make the movie even worse.
There's 4 of them, dumb party hound you know what that no one likes but shockingly still somehow has friends and a gf.
Dumb party hounds dumber crappier gf
Weird, reclusive, anti social friend that in real life, these two wouldn't be in the same room together ever.
Last, the actually decent nice guy who unshockingly gets walked on, treated like crap and gets the short end of the stick.
Yep, the worse one of the bunch doesn't have to go through any of the turmoil, and the best one of the bunch is the only one to die. Only in this world.
Boring movie, terrible characters, half ass acting, skip it.

Admittedly, the story here is a bit thin. It can be summed up in just a few rods: three young people get stuck in a very hot sauna and can't get out. Even with that, it seems to take a while for this to get going. A bunch of friends decide to spend some time in a cabin on a lake. The cabin has a sauna. For a half hour or so, they're in the lake and then the sauna. Then back to the lake, then back to the sauna and finally they get locked in. Basically, that's it. Not much else to it. The simple plot, mind you, doesn't make it a bad movie. It was decent enough. I kept watching - wondering who if any of them would be saved, and interested enough to see what ideas they would come up with to save themselves. If the plot was a bit thin, the same could be said for the cast. Scout Taylor-Compton was somewhat familiar to me. She's been a busy enough actress over the years - mostly guest spots in TV series. As Jenna, she seems to be the protagonist - a troubled young woman still coming to terms with the death of her boyfriend in a car accident three years before who accepts this invitation to come to this cabin with friends. The rest of the cast I was not familiar with.
This struck me as a fairly low budget movie. The sets were simple - generally wither in the cabin or in the sauna. Not much was spent on wardrobe. Since the bulk of the movie was watching the plight of the three in the sauna, it stands to reason that since they were in a sauna they didn't have much on - although, to the credit of those who made the movie, there's no nudity in this. It's called a horror movie. I'm not sure I'd agree with that. I wouldn't even really call it a thriller. Suspense perhaps.
This is essentially a time-waster. It's not something that's going to stay with you very long, but it's good enough to pass some time with. (5/10)

The extra drama added by insufferable characters making unbelievable asinine decisions, ruins what could be a mediocre movie. Instead of mediocre it's just plain terrible. Unfortunately the amateurs involved in this train wreck of a film did not once attempt to establish some kind of character development, which may have helped slightly. Instead they're just crying and screaming lines of dialogue strung together that seem only to pass the time.
Don't waste your time on this garbage, no matter how much you love the horror genre, no matter how high your tolerance for amateur movies... you will not enjoy this. It's simply not possible.
Seen worse..
This movie was ok but would of played better as a horror versus thriller,about friends that go away & get by unfortunate circumstances trapped in a sauna.
Could of worked better if it was a vacation gone wrong,with intruders or the cabin host.
The premise was interesting but eventually weared thin,as you just wanted to know do they live or die.. Roll credits! But it was typical,clichés & plot hole genre.
It was cast ok,acting average & cinematography low-quality.. This movie tried to come across higher-quality,but overall failed.
Is it worth seeing? Sure! Passes time a good popcorn flick,on a boring day.

- TriviaThe true event that the movie is based on happened in Georgia, where this film is made and filmmakers are from. 4 friends were in the sauna, one left for the toilet, locking his friends in - exactly as it is shown in the movie. He never came back, and when he woke up he didn't remember that he left them in the sauna, and started to search for them elsewhere. Fortunately no one died since they managed to turn the heater off, but they had to spend over 10 hours in the decreasing heat, until they were found.
- GoofsAt the start the friends share a drink of Mead, a popular drink among pagans, which is wine made from honey rather than from grapes, however they incorrectly refer to it as moonshine, which is home-made whiskey with concentrations above 50% alcohol by volume.
