It is a very bright genre film | "Escape Room"

An 8-point genre film, a 6-point drama film, the rhythm is basically kept exciting.

The plot reminds me of the 16-year "Belko Experiment", which belongs to a plot that uses the life and death of ordinary people as a bet to satisfy the perverted carnival of the rich, and is eventually defeated by the players. However, the self-safety awareness of the game designers in this part is too poor. The camera is so obvious and so easy to be destroyed. After the heroine defeated the two clean-up personnel by pretending to be dead, she was able to travel all the way to the final secret room. In the end, there was only the game designer in the secret room, and there were no other security personnel.

There are a lot of bright spots in the decryption process, and there are also a few that seem a bit brainless. For example: dissolving ice cubes with body temperature, pressing down the mechanism with the weight of a water glass filled with water, etc. There are many optimization methods, but the players chose the most brainless one here.

Upside-Down Chamber of Secrets

The high-temperature secret room and the upside-down secret room are more exciting, each step advances the progress of the decryption, and at the same time puts them into a more dangerous situation. Brilliant. But it was these two secret rooms that stood out, and it felt a bit hard to uncover the final truth.
