A grim thriller that isn't as compelling as it might have been in stronger hands. Go to Full Review

2/5
There's little commitment to any particular tone - it never leans too far into idle B-movie pleasures, nor is the material elevated with nuanced character work. Go to Full Review

Single location films like The Chamber are faithfully reliant on character structures and evolutions, which is where Ben Parker's execution falters most. Go to Full Review

5/10
Another flaw is that the script borrows heavily... ok, let's be honest, practically cribs it's entire plot from James Cameron's 1989 film The Abyss...Overall, despite some good moments, The Chamber is a near miss. Go to Full Review

08/11/2020 Good soundtrack by JDB. See more Kevin C 11/29/2019 Totally incompetent, SJW message driven drivel. Story could have been ok. Acting was D+. Men stupid, woman leader awesome tough. Not worth any moments spent on it. See more 08/29/2017 Though this survival thriller is flawed it at least manages to convey the setting in an effective way where the claustrophobic, tense and desperate situation is perfectly put on screen plus it is acted well enough, I like the score, has some good camerawork and has a gruesome and downbeat ending that I wasn't expecting. See more 03/28/2017 Horrible horrible horrible and nothing but horrible acting, I just wanted to see what was the point of the movie after half way through it. See more 03/23/2017 Good God...What a bloody boring movie ! See more Read all reviews
