An original enough blend of single-location thriller, online cautionary tale and WTF ridiculousness to make for an enjoyable plunge into the unknown/unknowable.

About midway through, #Manhole more or less jumps the shark — or is it the manhole? — by throwing in so many twists that it veers toward gory parody.

#Manhole is uncompromising in its twisted, violent aspirations. Brazenly unpredictable, it’s one of the best survival thrillers in years.

Rated: 4.5/5

#Manhole is a highly engaging and twist-rich narrative that beautifully illustrates the continued importance of the image for the subject...

The inherent silliness of the plot may prove distasteful to some viewers, but it’s such a bold swing that it’s hard to feel anything but excited by what transpires.

#Manhole is ludicrous at times and its dependence on social media becomes a bit of a hindrance, but Yûto Nakajima’s solid performance and an absolutely bonkers ending make this a thriller worth watching.

Rated: 3.5/5

A situational thriller that could double as a character study film. Despite predominantly taking place in a manhole, the movie was well-paced and cleverly incorporated the use of social media as a driving force for the movie. Yuto Nakajima did an amazing job as the lead as he appeared in 90% of the film and his convincing portrayal sold the somewhat ludicrous plot twist towards the end.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
