The remaining six friends board what I can only describe as a party bus, they hand over their phones and wallets because they can only use their brains but this scene takes like another ten minutes, I’m bored again, there is so much travelling, I think I’d have more fun driving around myself at least I won’t have ungrateful friends in my car demanding to know how much money I spent on these tickets like it’s any of their gosh darn business. I know what you’re thinking though, this is a film called ‘Escape Room’ so where is the escape room you ask? We’re getting there, turns out Christen bought tickets for a bit of fun on Tyler’s birthday and everyone is invited, besides Hadlee, because she didn’t RSVP in time or something so they didn’t bother getting her a ticket which I kinda think is a little rude but whatever.

Summary: Six friends test their intelligence when an escape room they participate in takes a dark and twisted turn. Stars: Evan Williams, Elisabeth Hower, Kelly Delson
