“The concept behind this film was not bad. It could have been a solid film. It was entertaining, sure. My wife watched it entirely through, and she never watches horror, so that means something.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThat being the case, the characters had chance after chance to escape, to overcome their captors, to kill their tormentors, etc. They never took it. Not once.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eReal humans in this situation (I will not give away the spoilers) would have tried more than once to escape, and could have likely succeeded, given the captive-to-captor ratio. At least some of them could have escaped.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOne good thing is that the characters had stories, and the acting was not terrible. It was so unrealistic, however, in terms of escape, that it was a huge problem with the plot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI suppose itu0026#39;s worth a watch for mild entertainment, but prepare to spot countless plot holes.”
