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

As Brick enters its final act, the wall feels less like a fascinating puzzle to solve and more like a monotonous problem to overcome.

Rated: 4/10

Brick ultimately lands with a thud, tackling ideas like grief and remorse, but injecting little life into its characters beyond these under-explored themes... This trap doesn’t end up feeling as elaborate or as satisfying as intended.

Rated: 4/10

This would-be promising trapped-in-a-puzzle-box sci-fi thriller hits a dead end.

Rated: 2/5

Brick is compelling with some incredibly well-designed characters, but it feels like much of the movie has been left on the cutting room floor.

Rated: 7/10

Brick is the ultimate grandmother of all bad movies ever made. So bad you can hardly believe it. Incredibly lame with a stupid story. Watching paint dry is more exciting. WTF - Netflix. ??? Seriously?

One of the WORST movie in the whole world lol I don't know why did they waste so much money and time for such a garbage. I literally can give 0 stars if I had the option. The concept is good but acting and actors are dull and can't watch them after some time Not gonna lie I just enjoyed when the characters died for the first time in my life It felt like they deserved it for wasting my time. Lastly I don't want you guys to waste your time so just delete it from your library and never watch it so the app can't recommend such bullshit

A pretty amazing and exciting contained thriller with a sci fi twist. The ensemble and the camera work sticks out, with the plot taken twists you don´t see coming. Fun and cool with that little german hint of weirdness!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
