Meander's basic rat-in-a-maze premise has an innate tension almost impossible to squander - even when the traps, as here, are a touch on the unimaginative side.

Rated: 3/5

This is torture porn... If you're not into that, then stay away from this.

The climax is too vague to satisfy, but Meander works as a lean exercise in suspense with an emotional sting.

Rated: 3/5

This effective, tense thriller plays out in a slick 90 minutes. A perfect shot of adrenalin.

Meander raises a lot of questions and may require a higher suspension of disbelief than some viewers are willing to give. However, for those open to it, the film’s twists will be a pleasure to uncover.

After being abducted by a stranger, a young woman wakes up in a maze where she is forced to move through a series of narrow tunnels in order to escape from deadly traps (fire, acid, and also ravenous zombies). "Meander" is a horror survival movie with sci-fi elements. Its compelling visuals and claustrophobic environment compensate for the lack of a more complex narrative. The trope reminds us of the cult favourite film "Cube" (1997). An example of a simple plot that excels in its execution!

The movie was good, it reminded me of the cube and it definitely kept me interested! The ending sucked I had to Google what the ending meant and I still don't see anything that makes sense
