Bret, u either a superhero movie or u not. I rock with SciFi movies, but this sh!t was a boring thriller the changed to SciFi for the last 30 minutes of film time. And setting all that aside, the movie did a terrible job of making us care for the main characters.

Spoiler

The whole plot relied on us caring that the girls survived the kidnapping. Then two of the girls are killed off as an afterthought. We are not even given a reason to care for the girls. We don't get a backstory, and they don't give more info about themselves during captivity. Just a bad bad movie, all the way around.

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!

So what's the film room's verdict?

 

[MJ Truth]

I didn't see them as smart. For example, the first girl who went "off the rail". If she was more patient in trying to escape. Instead of rushing knowing he was coming back. And even with the hero in the film. Getting on the walkie talkie with no real plan. He could have easily killed her. I thought she would have a plan but she was as dumb as her other friends.

I don't got a problem with any of that. Being kidnapped and tortured isn't something people usually spend their time preparing for. It'd make less sense to me if that first girl was able to come up with a plan without panicking; I could possibly see the main character being able to come up with an idea because of how/who she was being raised.

@Ironman What did You think if this?

So what's the film room's verdict?

It was decent. I think XXX would have been more fun to watch but my girl wanted to see this instead and i didnt have time to movie hop.

 

[MJ Truth]

@Ironman What did You think if this?

I haven't seen it yet and not going through this thread Trying to see it today though I'm intrigued on this personality thing and why he's by himself though

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

great acting
one of the best ending scenes of a movie including the twist
roller coaster of a movie never really know what is real or whats about to happen
sets up one of the best possibilities for future movies.

anyone else seen it?

why was my thread merged with this one?
if anything seeing as I spoke to the director and watched it way before anyone else my thread should be the leading thread.
