Steineded How sad is this?

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

mgratk How does decent acting ruin a movie? If the acting was sub-par, I would have stopped watching, instead of building up my hope that the ending would be good enough to somewhat excuse all the exceedingly dumb plot holes and the utter stupidity of the characters. In fact, the characters are so dumb none could have realistically reached adulthood in the first place. But anyway, the acting was pretty good, and I couldn't help UT think the ending might be clever enough to overcome all the nonsense so many others have pointed out already. I'll just add that even Barney Fife and his one bullet could have figured out what really happened at the ATM. It was a giant slap in the face that the actors had the nerve to do passable work with such a terrible story, to keep me engaged until they arrived at the ATM.

lisahampton-99873 It's fun to take this movie a part which I think is why there are so many reviews but let me just say that it's a pretty fun movie to say, "why don't they just.. "That guy isn't the killer..." "Why wasn't anyone watching when the killer set a booby trap? (I think it was trying to be a like Saw movie but the writing couldn't get smart enough and frankly those booby trap movies are boring). In this day and age, I can tell you these three people could easily be my friends, stuck in an ATM after parking so far away because of some weirdo stalking the parking lot, trying to figure out the best way to get out of there and ultimately just wimping out over the strange circumstances and start blaming each other. And with the crazy stories I read in the news daily, the premise really wasn't all that much of a stretch. That said the biggest blunder for me was when the girl died at the end (after we bonded with her) by her head hitting the counter when she fell off the guy's shoulders because her head missed it. I appreciated the ending with giving us some idea about the killer though for the most part it was pretty unsatisfying.

Jem de Blondeville (bloomfield-32301) Watched this on the UK horror channel. Iv'e ticked the spoiler box simply because i recommend you read all the other reviews with a rating of 1 or lower. There is not much wrong with the acting or cast if you like B movies. It's the ridiculous script and lack of plot, or comprehension of why the killer is killing, which is the real Killer in this film, and the ending, that isn't an ending, it's all so vague and disconnected and so frustrating, as after watching the film all the way through, i was hoping for some kind of logical or meaningful ending. I, unfortunately, was wasting my time.And all i felt at the end, was anger, that i'd wasted an hour and a half of my time, watching such a meaningless, and pointless film.

A. B. So here's how the pitch meeting probably went: "So we're going to do a thriller, kind of like Phone Booth, but with an ATM machine. We're going to get the Buried writer on board and some young up-and-coming talent to play three saps who get tormented by a faceless killer who traps them in one of those stand-alone bank machine buildings in the middle of nowhere in the dead of night.""Okay, so far so good.""Except they're not trapped. Like the doors are unlocked and they can leave any time.""Wait so... what?""Don't worry about it, okay? They're just like, in there. And the killer, see, he has all these ATM schematics that we'll superimpose over the opening credits, Se7en-style, to show that he meticulously masterminded this whole thing.""Alright I'm listening.""Except he doesn't bring a weapon of any kind with him. Or tools. Like, he's planning on messing with the heat 'cause it's really cold out and he has to like clang around in the back there to turn the heat off and also flood the place--cause it's waterproof. He just gets the tools out of their car, see.""So he has their car keys?""Oh no, they have the keys in there with them. They don't make a break for the car while he's doing other stuff though, because they parked really far away for some reason.""I'm starting to see the logic of this. And of course they don't have phones in there.""Why would they? It's 2012, nobody has a cell phone.""Alright, I'm into this. And this killer--he's some disgruntled guy, right? Like we find out that our heroes actually wronged him somehow so what's happening to them is karma? Twist ending, love it.""Oh no, he's a total rando who goes around trapping people in ATM booths and the like because he's really bent out of shape about living in a storage container.""SOLD."
