Hollywood Reporter

The movie keeps suspense alive, as we try to guess how this all will play out -- building to a final tableau that, silently, says nearly as much about human nature as does all the talk leading up to it.

Polygon

If you're aching for some more kill-or-be-killed drama in the vein of Squid Game with a surreal sci-fi bent à la 1997's Cube or Hiroya Oku's Gantz, then Cube is certainly worth a watch.

Plays out like a tediously long episode of Twilight Zone.

Rated: C-

Superficial and easy, it simplifies complex social dilemmas at the elementary level and its study of human cruelty is as apathetic and inefficient as its entertainment value. [Full Review in Spanish]

... spending 87 minutes in one room with the same people seemed like it might be a bit much, but I gotta give props to the filmmakers; it actually seemed just right.

There are one or two missteps in the performances. But nearly everything about Circle is deliberate and dense.

It's over an hour of people talking about their lives and why they deserve to live more then others. The twist at the end was alright although with a movie like this a twist doesn't even matter. I like the mystery of it but then again there's no point to it.

Though filled with stereotypes, cliches, and some iffy acting, "Circle" delivers with a great death-game drama, and some subtly brilliant performances.

If you love a movie in a bottle, this one is as simple as you can get. The movie happens almost exclusively in one room, yet it manages to keep you entertained throughout.
