The Immaculate Room tells the story of Mike (Emile Hirsch) and Kate (Kate Bosworth), a seemingly perfect couple, join a psychological experiment to compete for 5 million dollars if they can last 50 days in a sleek, white room in complete isolation. No phones, no family -- only the Voice of the Immaculate Room keeping them in check if they think of straying. But as the clock ticks down, the Room becomes more than it seems, putting them through cruel tests to break their resolve and resurfacing private demons which they may not survive.

In the end, the audience has to answer the question that’s put to the characters: Do we care more about the $5 million or them? I confess I wound up with the wrong answer.

This film offers some interesting food for thought for folks who are game.

It’s all just a little too immaculately rendered to be satisfying, or even compelling beyond the initial conceit.

"Despite a few moments of creativity and excitement, The Immaculate Room is overwhelmingly predictable both in its story and its message."

Rated: 2.5/5

The Immaculate Room has interesting ideas, but the results are not cohesive enough for a stronger character journey.

Sometimes, high concept means an absence of concept altogether. Like a sensory deprivation tank, the new non-thriller The Immaculate Room is so empty it dares you to fill it up with your own ideas and narrative stuff.

I cannot believe this movie wasted this much time of my life! If you’re gonna drag it out for so long, and then the payoff was terrible I feel like I got robbed.

Intriguing experiment sadistically underhanded solely to stir, which intervenes the perceptive simulation rather physically assisted than psychologically as originally expected. No matter what the course, it still realizes in expected truth being minimally polished from little dive. (B-)

Solid performances, but the story falls short of the potential of the high concept. This is a good story, but we aren't watching the first, last or most portant run of this social experiment/show. It is an interesting choice to chronicle this couple and the relatable, but challenging dynamic, and while it doesn't have as big of a punch as audiences usually expect in this style of story, it is still a rewarding experience.

This movie surprised me...and at the same time played out exacty as it was drawn up - literally. The art sketched out on the walls played perfectly with the situations throughout the film, and were framed in exacting cinematic composition to accentuate the inner workings of the characters motivations thoughout the film. It draws on many symbolic references common to surrealism - mountains, birds etc., to produce an amazing blend of internal conflict meets external reaction. I'm looking forward another, deeper dive into the film and it's nuanced and creative approach to story telling.

Honestly one of the worst movies I've ever seen. I feel like I just watched nothing. Where was the plot? Where was the suspense? So sad that I spent the last few hours of my weekend on this movie. I'm genuinely mad that I wasted precious hours of my life on this movie. In my 25 years, I've never felt the need to leave a movie review. Though after watching this movie I had to create an account just to save anyone else from wasting any time on this movie.

The story was a little bland. I was interested in the meta information of the room but that was not provided nor clarified. It was all based on the experiences of Mike and Kate.
