Chloe Leeson Screen Queens 10/29/2018
annoying characters pulled straight out of the worst noughties slasher film and a script that feels underdeveloped, Escape Room has neither the tricks nor the timing to stand out. Go to Full Review Jonathan Hatfull SciFiNow 10/29/2018
1/5
The performances are mostly fine but a couple of fun gory surprises can't get rid of the nasty taste Escape Room leaves in your mouth and there's really not enough here to recommend it. Go to Full Review Javier Perez Cine Premiere 10/20/2017

Although the twists and turns of the story are interesting... Escape Room has major flaws. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Jun 4 I lost brain cells watching this See more S S Mar 9 Really enjoyed this movie, some of the dialogue is a bit meh at times, but overall a good watch. See more Olivia R Feb 8 Absolutely horrible. Boring and slow. Characters are annoying and finishing the movie felt like a chore. See more Ralph R Jan 18 Escape Room (2017), directed by Will Wernick, takes a great concept and wastes it on mediocre execution. The movie struggles right from the start, with a painfully slow first half that does little to engage or build any meaningful tension. The character decisions often feel illogical and forced, making it hard to connect with their situations or take the stakes seriously. While the escape room premise had potential for creativity and suspense, the direction and pacing miss the mark, leaving the whole setup feeling flat and uninspired. The production quality doesn't help matters either. The sets and cinematography come across as average at best, lacking the polish or clever design you'd expect from a movie relying so heavily on its environment. It's clear the budget was limited, but the lack of creativity in working around those constraints is disappointing. Overall, it's a forgettable experience that fails to deliver on its premise. See more Smackie u 11/07/2024 Some of the worst acting and dialog I've ever witnessed. See more Steven t @SST609 10/21/2024 I like this type of deadly escape room style movies like this and cube. This one had a few good moments but overall just average at nest. The ending was terrible and about half the actors need to get better. See more Read all reviews
