I don't even know what's to start. I read the synopsis and knew going into it that it wasn't going to be a masterpiece, but I'm a big fan of bad movies so jumped in anyway. Plus I've been carrying a crush on Ed Westwick since I was a kid watching Gossip Girl.
Oh man, what the actual heck was I thinking.
I'm not one to nit-pick on direction and lighting etc; I'm certainly not an expert. But even my untrained eye thought the choices were just weird. What was with the random montages backed with 80s network television music? What's with the utterly terrible dialogue? Bad acting, bad dialogue, weird plot filler that did nothing to help the story, bad lighting, bad everything. B movies have value, but this one didn't.
How do you mess this up when you're just ripping off the Saw franchise with a touch of Squid Game? 10 movies and 1 TV season of source material, people. How hard is it to screw this up.
Do yourself a favor and only watch this if you're prepared to pee yourself laughing while rolling your eyes and questioning your life choices.
