The Immaculate Room (2022)

The Immaculate Room (2022). The Immaculate Room: Directed by Mukunda Michael Dewil. With Emile Hirsch, Kate Bosworth, Ashley Greene, Alex Sgambati. Secrets and private demons emerge when a seemingly perfect young couple competes for a 5 million dollar prize by isolating themselves in an empty white room for 50 days. No phones, no family – only the room trying to break their resolve.

“Itu0026#39;s hard to imagine a more obviously COVID-era movie, made in strict isolation with a small handful of actors, some of whom neve even meet each other and talk only to camera. On one level itu0026#39;s admirable that they tried to keep on making movies regardless, but it already feels dated and claustrophobic and itu0026#39;s just obvious that it exists only for the reason of making content during a pandemic. There is practically nothing that happens in it that comes as a surprise, and thereu0026#39;s no original, meaningful or particularly convincing moments that occur at any point. Thereu0026#39;s nothing glaringly BAD about it, either, just the perpetual feeling that thereu0026#39;s no reason for it to have been made at all beyond an instruction to continue pumping out streaming content.”
