@paladin5150 Sounds better than i was expecting this to be. I saw escape room. It was good-- if you liked Saw, you'd probably like Escape Room. Just enough newness and relevance to keep it interesting, and Daredevils reporter gf/Jessica from true blood was in it.
I wish we could see replied comments in our comment feed too, not just thru notifications in the junk email box.
Well, I figured it was a blend of the "Cube" and "Saw" franchises, mainly "Cube" on steroids, so I'll prolly wait for the blu-ray or see if it's on the torrents yet. Primewire used to be great, but, it's gone the way of virus ridden re-direct hell due to greedy admin. Yeah, I liked how they did Bird Box. Worth a watch, anything with Sandra in it usually is. Now, if she could just find another project with Keeanu..., John Wick 4 maybe???
They really should think about adding PMing here, at least between "friends" to cut out the flame wars. Makes no sense to have to find work arounds, and everything "public". Have you tried whitelisting TraktTV in your email so it doesn't go to the spam folder?
Escape Room not so fun IRL though:

A good concept with mixed results on the execution. A superb cast that made the most of the rather thin material they had to work with, and, extra kudos to Sandra Bullock for taking on another damaged character, yet, somehow managing to make us root not just for her survival, but her redemption, and ultimately, her salvation, as she struggles to find connection with the ones with whom connection should be automatic. Trevante Rhodes, shines as Tom, who breaks through Malorie's chilly facade, without becoming trite or contrived. John Malkovich of course has made a career out of just being John Malkovich, just as Marion Morrison made a career out of being John Wayne. (same character, different wrapping paper) Lil Rel Howery, now repping the neighborhood supermarket, pulls off some "T.S .M/Fing A." style heroics, and Machine Gun Kelley delivered his 4 word exclamation, multiple times, on cue, with the appropriate facial expressions. He should have a long career as "the party guest who smelled a fart", or the nekkid butt shot on the washing machine, knocking boots with the girl who said she wouldn't if he was the last man in the world. (or possibly a zombie in Shaun of the Dead 3)
Neflix kept it under budget in the FX department by simply "suggesting" the monster rather than beating us over the head with it, and, to some extent it is effective. No green screen or ILM wizardry needed. But overall an enjoyable popcorn movie, and it actually intrigued me enough that I'd like to see this world explored a bit further, perhaps with the mythology Charlie was exploring for his the end of the world opus.
