"Escape Room" Mom's Rating : C- -

Six individuals receive a puzzle cube and invitation to an Escape Room adventure. The winner of the Escape Room will receive $10000, which is just the lure to reel the invitees into the game. They are very different people, a gamer who has completed 93 different escape rooms, a grocery stocker, a female Iraqi War Veteran, a physics smartie pants student, a truck driver and a successful stock broker.


Why were these particular people selected, by personal invitation, to the Escape Room? What, if anything, could they possibly have in common? Of course they have something in common, but it takes just about the whole movie to discover what it is. And when we find out, do we really care?

Does it really make sense?


The adventure begins almost immediately, when the waiting room begins to heat up via heaters that come out of the walls. Okay it’s getting really hot. Like throw a sirloin on the coffee table and it’s ready to eat in a minute. And they think it’s really a legit game? They all barely escape before the

room combusts. Next room they are in a cabin in the forest with snow, real snow and ice. Have none of these people ever seen Saw? Or any of the other movies where, people are held hostage and tortured? Hello, reality check, this is not a game. There is no $10000.


I won’t give away the ending, but lets just say rich people don’t play the same games as you and I. This is a slow time at movie theatres, not a lot of quality movies are being released right now. Escape Room fits into the current mediocre status of the offerings at the theatre. Hurry up spring!! Honestly, save your money and wait for Red Box. Escape Room is rated C minus minus.
