Escape Room (2017)

Kristen has been doing research on escape rooms. For what, you ask? I have no idea. So when an invite to an escape room shows up in her email, she assumes it’s because of her research and books a room for her boyfriends birthday. Two other couples join them in the party bus that brings them to their mystery destination.  They must put their phones, wallets, purses and everything in their pockets in a bag so they have no access to help while trying to escape. 

They are blindfolded, led inside and put in different rooms. There are no instructions or explanation about what to do. Eventually they end up in the same room, except for Kristen who is somewhere in a cage.  They need to find her before she dies.  And thus starts a series of people not taking things seriously even though others have literally died and they could be next.  

Also what is up with people arguing about personal matters in the middle of a life or death crisis? It seems to happen in so many movies.  You don’t have time to talk about this crap right now. If you’re all worked up about being cheated on, you’re not going to notice someone coming up behind you.
