A fun little genre film with an interesting premise that offers interesting single-location entertainment. But it's also predictable in its structure, and the finale wasn't quite as nifty as it hoped to be. A slightly shorter runtime would've been better, though the pacing was overall decent enough.

The performances were fine, the premise showed promise, and I always appreciate films that stick to a single location. The presentation was proper, and the build-up of tension was by the book. It's just that it didn't do quite enough to stand out from similar films. This isn't the next Cube or The Platform, but it's still an entertaining diversion.
