Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Royston Vasey There is a major twist in this movie which is never actually revealed other than being obvious to anyone with half a brain.He's not in a walk in freezer, he's in a walk in fridge.The clues. 1. He says its 37 degrees F or something like that, which is about the temperature of a fridge. A freezer would be around 0F or -18C.2. He hits some hanging meat which was surprisingly bouncy in texture, therefore not frozen, I guess it could have just gone in but no, this is another clue that its not a freezer.3. The breath thing that everyone is pointing out (which should probably still happen at fridge temperatures).4. There are some jars of some kind of liquid, like sauces, they are still liquid, yeah OK, could be alcohol but then what are they doing in a fridge/freezer? 5. There are some boxes with a penguin on them which has a cross through it, and they say something like contents not to be frozen (duh!) 6. There are quite a few items in there which shouldn't even be in a fridge, such as tins of tomatoes, but in a freezer that's just crazy.7. There are some more boxes which state to be stored at 33-37 degrees F, this is a fridge temperature, not a freezer.There is one point where he takes an icicle to get water for the cop. This is the only icicle in the place and certainly wouldn't have formed at those temperatures.The movie was pretty bad but to be honest I was entertained as my mind was totally preoccupied with the "spot things that prove its not a freezer" game.Personally I'm looking forward to the sequel "Bakers Oven", where Dylan is trapped in a Sauna full of raw bread dough for an hour and a half.
countryshack This movie was so bad it actually began to hurt to watch it. You will find yourself saying in Every Scene: "That is ridiculous." No, ridiculous doesn't fully describe it. You would have to add a few slang vulgar adjectives in front of ridiculous to give it the kind of review that it deserves. Twenty minutes into this action/thriller we were all laughing at its stupidity.The directing looked like it was a made for TV movie and the writing was pure adolescent. Don't waste your time and, more importantly, don't waste any money on this...um...waste.Then again, if you are intellectually challenged and don't quite understand the meaning behind the story of the 3 pigs, then... Grab that large popcorn, biggee coke, and a box or two of your favorite chocolate sugar, and get ready for a great action/thriller;)
belindar-2 This movie is not that bad. It is slow but it is worth the watch. If you want to watch a movie that seems to go nowhere until the last scenes then this is one you might enjoy. I enjoyed it because it ended with a good ending. Dylan McDermott was a convincing victim and you could not have known how he was going to resolve his plight. Yuliya Snigir gave a good performance. If you watch the movie to the half way point, then you might as well go the whole route. For those who enjoy a movie with a surprise, you will enjoy this. Stay with it all the way because you will leave it with a smile. There is nothing better than to see a movie end right.
bob-rutzel-1 Robert (Dylan McDermott) wakes up in a walk-in freezer with hands and feet bound. It's his birthday and has no memory of how he got there. Door is locked from the outside. And, it's getting colder and colder. What to do? What to do?Okay, I get it. There will be some big twist at the end so I decided to hang for a while or until Robert dies from hypothermia. Shouldn't be too long. Maybe this is one of those Hollywood Short Shorts we hear about and never see. Hmmmm……..Two Russian heavies come in and demand to know where the money is and, of course, Robert has no way of knowing what they are talking about. They beat him up pretty good. Later, more Russians come in but this time Alisa (Yulia Snigir) is with them and she, too, is asking for the money. Robert gets beat up again. They leave. The Russians want their money: $8-million. The Russians come and they go and the beatings continue and they take his shoes (oh, no, not that!). You know for a small room there seems to be more foot traffic in this freezer than there is at Grand Central Station. Later Robert discovers he is not alone. There is a wounded cop in with him. Robert finds a telephone and calls the police, but he cannot tell them where he is. He has no idea where he is. Did the phone belong to the wounded cop? Is the cop dirty? Is the cop that answered the phone dirty too? Can anyone be trusted? So this is how it goes and Robert is getting closer to freezing to death, but keeps looking for a way out or to stop the freezing . I kept yelling at the screen for him to knock out the fans, but the freezer impaired his hearing. Bummer. I have to admit the dialogues and the acting carry this film. We are now fully engaged. (Who would have thought? ) Let's review: Robert in a freezer, gets beat up many times by the Russians, the woman seems softer and may be able to help, but she makes Robert take his clothes off – so no help there, many fights break out with Robert getting the worst of them. Then the big crime boss comes into the freezer to get his money and wait a minute: did I hear Robert speak Russian? So there is something more to this. I have to admit that for a limited space in the freezer I was kept in suspense and Robert's quips may have saved him at times, but the Russians need him alive to find the money. And, then it happens, the twist. Told ya. All in all this is pretty good. Great acting performances from McDermott and the supporting cast and great dialogues and some things we are not told until the very end. That is what twists are all about. Violence: Yes. Sex: No. Nudity: No. Language: Yes.
