Dork_knight74 (881 KP) rated Escape Room (2019) in Movies

Great
This movie turned out to be a great thriller. The characters were interesting and the song was good. The cinematography/effects were decent and not gruesome. The story tied together and lasted out well. The "trap" rooms are pretty creative too. The ending left it open for a sequel(like Hollywood loves to do anymore). Overall, really worth a watch.

Eh
This movie was fairly boring. It had a little creep factor but a lot of predictability. The acting wasn't terrible and as it was not big budget the cinematography was done well enough. Though it falls under "horror" there's nothing really scary about it. The main protagonist seemed way too naive for her age. Overall this one is NOT worth a watch.

Guilty pleasure
This movie is a total guilty pleasure. It should be a really bad movie but you can help but get drawn in and fully enjoy it. Special effects are good, dialogue is good, it is just good. If you are at a loose end with no idea what to watch this is the movie that needs to go on.

Better than expected
Thought this one would be a lot more "cheesy" but it turned out to be pretty decent. The acting was good and the cinematography/effects were, too. Couple of decent twists and the story was pretty unique and unfolded quite well. A little reminiscent of older horror movies(in a good way). This one is definitely worth a watch!

Donnie Yen has been a favourite for some time, and this film is an instant classic in a large circle of martial arts movies.
Its intense and well choreographed action and fight scenes put Yen front and centre, and it's about time he got the recognition he deserved and this extraordinary movie is a great showcase of his talent, a must watch!

Arnie plays the antithesis of his normal action roles in this dark horror that is surprisingly good and did not deserve the kicking it got.
Arnie's character gives him a chance to show the viewer that he does indeed have range as he not only fights his inner demons but also those in real life, it's a solid watch in my book.

Crazy road trip for two stoners out to satisfy their post drug hunger pangs.
Full of nuts one liners and strange Cameo's, it's a fun one to catch if you have just come in from a night on the tiles and need something comedic and fun but forgettable to watch.
It's very close to that other nuts stoner movie Dude where's my car.

This installment is very different as the film's tone is quite dark and the story is that of spies and espionage which is a bold move and direction for Marvel that pays off handsomely and makes for an intense and thrilling watch.
This is up there as one of the best sequels in the genre and is a must see.

This was quite an engrossing watch for me with a close similarity to the sixth sense, Nicole Kidman is very believable as the protective mother and the supporting actors convincing as the housekeepers and groundsman, this film twists and turns it's way to quite a shocking finale even though the 6th sense broke this ground earlier doesn't detract from the surprising conclusion.

This one was a surprise hit for me as the genre needed a boost, it has some great moments such as the "Zombie kill of the week" recap which is a short distraction from the main story.
Bill Murray as always was fun to watch and lifted an already good movie to another level "time to nutt up, or shut up"
