This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

This movie starts off well enough but quickly fizzles into a chaos of frustration. The "dark" scenes are obviously faux in order for the viewer to see in the dark - even though there's nothing to see; so just making it true dark with sound would have been far more suspenseful. Even though the acting was quite good, this type of movie is supposed to be a thriller (put together the pieces and figure it out). True thrillers, by true masters like Hitchcock, give you all the clues and put them together in a way that you don't follow for a surprising twist at the end. However, they don't cheat by changing the rules of the universe they've created. Conversely, this movie totally cheats and changes the rules as it goes along. For instance it was easy to figure that Tanya being the final contestant (and as the tape says the most important), and also the least threatening, is the killer. However, they show her listening to a tape in the bathroom as if she's one of the contestants when in fact she's later revealed to be in on the experiment and a planted killer. So, why then would she need to listen to a tape by herself to explain what's going on? This is just lazy writing. I've written a book with far more twists and didn't have to resort to cheap tricks like this, so why couldn't the writers of this movie? The ending was also very disappointing, they go through the trouble of showing you the people perpetrating the torture but don't explain who they are or why; as such it would have been better if they just ended the movie five minutes earlier when Tanya turns out the light. Heck, the entire movie would have been worthwhile if Tanya (Ailsa Marshall) has shown her cans when she was stripping at the end but you don't even get that for closure (what "B" movie horror actress refuses to show nudity?) The movie is worth a watch but don't expect it to be anything new or to make any sense.

A group of fourteen strangers wearing electronic necklaces are locked in a large room without any previous explanation. Sooner they are informed by a man in a monitor that they are participating of a deadly game, where the prize of the winner would be his or her own life, but they should follow certain rules to stay alive. Further, the man tells that there is one rapist, one murdered and one pedophile among them. Under the leadership of Lee (Michael McLafferty), the contestants try to resolve their own suspicions to survive.After the original 1997 "Cube", there are many rip-offs of strangers locked in an environment participating of a sick game, like for example the franchise "Saw"; or "House of 9" or the 2006 "Unknown"; therefore, "Breathing Room" is unoriginal. Unfortunately "Breathing Room" is not even a "good rip-off" because the story is boring and annoying in some moments; and the unexplained conclusion of the scientific experiment the team was submitted is pointless and disappointing. Who are the scientists? What is the objective of the sadistic experiment? Why those persons have been selected to participate? The viewer has no answer for these simple questions; therefore the story and the screenplay absolutely fail. In the awesome 2001 "Das Experiment", there is a previous explanation for teaming-up the guinea pigs. However the acting is great and the actors and actresses are able to transmit their claustrophobic tension and pain to the viewers. My vote is four.Title (Brazil): "O Quarto do Inferno" ("The Hell's Room")

this was in my recommendations on amazon.co.uk & upon reading the synopsis it sounded like the cube trilogy & when i watched this movie i found that it is basically cube set in 1 big room minus the traps.at the start a woman emerges in a room with 13 strangers who tell her they have all been selected to take place in a unique game where there can be only 1 winner...yes you guessed it, they have to kill each other to survive, although they don't all start attacking each other right away, the paranoia kicks in with everyone. This is made worse when their "host" informs them that there are 3 criminals among them a paedophile, a rapist & a murderer.the films pace is slow but the characters interact as you would expect if you were in the situation & builds up to a great climax where the true reasons for the game are revealed & the films twist.Some may hate this film but if you enjoyed the cube films you will probably like this too.

I did't understand what this movie was meant to be. I think it shows a small picture of the world we live in: The whole life is a game of survival; you come to this world naked and and you don't know anyone at first. You will die if you ever dare to break the rules. In a world of survival, you cannot trust anyone. You will die even if you are given the chance to see other worlds, and if you do see other worlds you will understand that the game "is not as it looks". If you want to reveal what you know about this game, you will be eliminated. The killer is representative of "The Ripper", sent to harvest souls. People don't know about their fate. They don't know which one is next.
