Make sure to watch this thriller in its original German. Dubbed into English, it goes from mildly diverting to landing like a ton of, well ….

It's frustrating to see such high-concept potential, some decent production design, and a couple of game leads fall victim to a mystery that unfolds with thudding obviousness.

Rated: 2.5/4

There is a fair amount of tension, and while you never quite get all the answers, it seems to introduce an intriguing mystery that could work well in sequels. The strength is in the concept.

Rated: 62/100

The mystery isn’t as clever as it could be, and the shallow depth of field is distracting, but thanks to enjoyable performances and a quick runtime, Brick is an easy and sometimes stressful watch.

Rated: 4/5

The premise of this thriller is intriguing and comes out of nowhere.

Very poorly directed and executed movie. I had high hopes, but the characters, contrived plot and just lack of intelligence was downright disrespectful to the audience. Why do they keep making such poorly written and directed movies. Please just stop. You have an obligation to the shareholders and investors of your movie corporation to actually try and deliver amazing products. These directors are just given free reign to just keep pumping out crap.
