Jennie Kermode Eye for Film 10/14/2024
2/5
Outside of the Russian Roulette scenes, the film has much more visual appeal, with noirish cinematography and a fluid style which recalls director Howard J Ford’s early work with his brother Jonathan. Go to Full Review
Alistair Lawrence Common Sense Media 10/09/2024
This tedious knock-off of popular horror flick Saw and its many sequels is delivered on a micro-budget with no new ideas. Go to Full Review

Tom F Jun 23 At its core this movie is somewhat entertaining and has a good premise but it lacked execution and is also pretty dumb. The family we are introduced to at the start, we don’t see their reaction when the Russian woman is kidnapped? Like why bother introducing those characters and then the son is seen watching the live stream we don’t see a shock reaction about the fact it’s his mum on the stream he just shuts his iPad and we never see him again?!? The worst part was some of the timing like the swat team saying they were 2 mins away and then all of a sudden out of their cars and at a warehouse within 30 movie seconds (I know because there is a timer) and many more which involve spoilers. It felt slightly rushed and I wish we had less police scenes it felt like a Saw film in that aspect without the really thrilling in-between. *slight spoiler* the movie set up for a second which I don’t think will happen with these reviews but no clue where they’d go from here. But yeh if you’ve got time to kill give it a watch as there are some entertaining scenes but it really could’ve been more like if they had a live audience that would’ve been cool or if the Russian roulette scenes were dragged out a bit more it would’ve been better. See more Luke H Apr 27 I would totally disagree with the low star reviews. Being a thriller and horror fanatic I havent been gripped to a film in so long and it was absolutely brilliant. It gave me the gripping feeling of saw, but more realistic and real life. Felt like an American production which was brilliant also. Gripping from start to finish and I thought it was very real life and different. Would watch again and hope theres a second movie.

See more Greg H Jan 10 Agree the presenter is a weak character and could have added so much more. Cinematic direction is total mince, acting in the main poor, and whilst there were some new ideas weak script and a well thought out plot and story timeline let's it down. See more Ben R Jan 6 An absolute monstrosity of a film. I had Jaws 3 as the worst film I've ever watched until I wasted an hour and a half watching this. Ed Westwick has to be the worst actor of all time. Pinnochio is less wooden than him. Shame as the storyline was ok. What's even worse is it left the possibility of a sequel. Surely not!!!!
