ESCAPE ROOM

Watchable. Starts really bad: a guy trapped in a locked room, then someone else driving while you hear moans in the background and, finally, typical for a slasher movie ominous signs like a weird guy crossing the street in front of the car or a road sign "caution" warning. Silly birthday conversations in a restaurant get enlivened with an interesting method of picking up the bill: drawing the banking card at random. Relinquishing phones starts the game. The rest is uneven. Ridiculous mixes with inventive: smart clues and room layout but also killings for no reason at all, a beautiful female vic running naked, ludicrous conversations. Lack of ending. If it means a sequel is coming, it may be actually better.
