The fear is inescapable and the suspense nonstop in this gripping horror-thriller about six strangers who suddenly awaken in a remote, endless cornfield. Stripped of their possessions, they are left with only six items: a gun with a single bullet, matches, a lantern, a knife, a compass, and a flask of water. As mysterious sirens blare in the distance and traps appear at every turn, the group realizes it's been plunged into a cat-and-mouse game with an unseen evil, and survival depends upon solving a diabolical -- and deadly -- puzzle.

Escape the Field gets a marginal pass, for two reasons: First, it’s short, clocking in at a brisk 88 minutes. Second, it’s an original-ish concept, with no explicit ties to existing IP.

With such hand-holding dramatic direction and a dreary visual palette that never creates terror out of random corn stalks, it couldn’t be more dull.

While Escape the Field lacks the visual panache of its predecessors, there’s enough here to make it a solid night at the movies for the right kind of genre fan.

There are familiar influences, but the way the concept and narrative are fleshed out creates a bland mystery where nothing exciting happens and is full of annoying characters.

1.5/4

Feels longer than six seasons of Lost with only a sliver of that "Mystery Box" show's cohesiveness. The actors gamely sally forth but they, like us, are getting nowhere.

4/10

Borrowing from Agatha Christie's "Ten Little Indians", this is a who's next movie that goes nowhere.

Actually terrible. I thought I would be entertained enough since I like movies with this sort of survival premise but this one was painful to sit through. It's a horror but not once did I feel scared or even unsettled. Some of the scenes were so ridiculous that I was actually laughing. Dont waste your time

La película es absurda mente aburrida. No hay nada para rescatar, no pierdan el tiempo viéndole.

Basically "The Maze Runner" meets "Escape Room," but without either's production budget. Boring. An extra point for castong Jordan Claire Robbins, though.

Slow, a little boring, far-fetched, nothing explained with a stupid ending…
