Danielle White Austin Chronicle 03/21/2019
2.5/5
There's a building toward the inevitable, but it's not boring/predictable. It's more like a presentiment that has you saying, "No, no, no, no" under your breath with each new awful thing. Go to Full Review
Brad Wheeler Globe and Mail 03/15/2019
2/4
And while fans of the genre will absolutely appreciate the surreal gloom, for most others Level 16 will come in at a level below an average Twilight Zone episode. Go to Full Review
Robert Abele Los Angeles Times 03/01/2019
But as it sputters toward its curtain-exposing conclusion, "Level 16" stays disappointingly thin, both as a dark-future cautionary saga and a genre exercise. Go to Full Review
Andrea Beach Common Sense Media 09/01/2023
3/5
The mostly feminist themes explored in Level 16 have been pretty well explored elsewhere, so there's not much new here. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Mixing elements of social justice, horror and sci fi, Level 16 is a genre movie that delivers both intellectually and emotionally. Go to Full Review
Joey Keogh Wicked Horror 09/25/2019
7/10
Level 16 is about atmosphere rather than all-out scares, and it's much to the story's credit that we remain on the hook right up until the end. Go to Full Review

dede w 4d loveeeddd this movie mannnn watched this back in 2021, wish. they can make a part 2 instead of ending it off of what happened to them after they escape See more Hayleigh P. @haytay.shows22 Jul 21 Haven’t seen it in awhile and forgot to rate. Was a pretty good movie. I watched most of it on tik tok tbh 😭 See more Robert M Feb 28 The reason why I like this movie is because of the girls and the way they get their freedom and the love that they have for the other girls in the kindness too. That’s why I think this movie deserves a second movie. See more Joe S Jan 6 The fact that they pulled this off with mostly young actors, minimal special effects, and a relatively small budget is impressive. It gives me hope for the future of the film industry. Some might argue the budget shouldn't matter, but it's important. The highest grossing film of 2023, for example, cost 5000% more money to produce than Level 16. Although the more expensive movie appealed to a wider audience and was visually impressive, it wasn't 5000% more impressive than this one. It gives me hope that good movies will continue to be created, even in a world where producers aren't willing to spend the annual salary of two-thousand middle class workers to produce them. See more Lars P Dec 30 For horror-fans is the plot no big surprise, but overall well made. See more Alyssa P 09/23/2024 fantastic movie. wish the version i watched included russian translations but not a huge loss, still easy to understand the film. loved the social commentary. insane that "clean girl aesthetic" has become a trend, clearly unrelated to the movie but with the exact same values- emphasis on skincare, dressing simply and modestly, "demure." genuinely fantastic.
