I think this is about the third escape room based horror movie I've seen, and I'm **preeeeeeetty sure** it's the best one? _Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

This is really about some amazingly inventive visuals as we follow some well-deserving egotists and miscreants who find themselves caught up in lethal, industrial scale, version of the "Adventure Game". They've been lured by the prospect of winning quite a measly $10k, so we ought not to be surprised by the quality of entrant for this adventure as they must pit their collective wits against a designer from hell. The whole point of the game, though, is that they do have a chance, if they can think quickly enough on their feet and/or play pool upside down. It might well work fine as a video game, but as a feature on screen it's really a lame collection of acting talent delivering increasingly hysterical dialogue in an environment for which I was heartily cheering from the moment I met "Ben" (Logan Miller), "Zoey" (Taylor Russell) and the rest of a gang of people for whom over-confidence is the order of the day. It does look good and it's decently paced with an agreeable degree of jeopardy, but from my perspective any survivor was going to be one too many, so any result other than that was merely going to disappoint and/or scream sequel at us.
