Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
jampac53 This movie made me want to stitch MY eyes shut! I guess the Collector is really Dash from the Incredibles. Good God the equipment he carries in his white van. And so meticulously created. If you have the victims trapped why is all this set up needed? And what if none of the victims are worth being collected? He just kills them & blows up the house? Like that pattern wouldn't catch the attention of authorities. And his getting to the ambulance was truly a land speed record. This was just lots of gore, absurdity & mimicked slowing down to see a car wreck, for those of us who sat through to the bitter end.
mkivtt The sequel is half decent, but this first instance is just dumb.It's as if the writer thought up a dozen "trap" type scenarios, and only then realized he had to write a plot around it. That ended up falling flat on its face. From one day to another, this rich guy's mansion turns into a booby trapped home. Really? All that design, setup, and testing overnight?And for what purpose? There's nobody in that home except the rich guy, his wife, and daughter. The wife's tied up, the rich guy is tied up, and he doesn't know about the daughter. What exactly is he trying to achieve? Who's going to run through all those traps? It's just stupid. For the gore fans, there's nothing to see here either other than some blood here and there. Nothing shocking, nothing scary, nothing surprising, nothing worth seeing at all. Waste of time.
me-76619 Awful and boring. Not anywhere near as good as the Saw films.
saramgia Spoilers aren't possible, as the movie has no plot or story. It's just one long fight--no explanation of who the characters are or why they do what they do. The "how" is impossible. There's no exposition, climax, or denouement.
