Elevator (V) (2012)
3/10
OK Concept, Just Doesn't Play Out
20 October 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This movie was recommended for me on Netflix after I rated Buried. This movie was a really unique combination of a confined space movie and a revenge plot. I thought the "bomb lady" died too early along in the movie. I also felt like the whole Mohammed-Comedian tension never formed into anything, and was just being used as comic relief. The ending was also left very open, with all we see is Mohammed's wife never picking up the phone. I wish we would have been able to see what happened in the next few weeks, and if Mr. Barton gave them each their share. If he did, it would have been nice to see what happened in their lives. I would also have liked to see what happens when the fiancée finds out her boyfriend knocked up his coworker. I also saw it as a poor choice to include the bomb maker coming forward, that would rarely/never happen if the plot were real. 3/10, due to the diverse cast of characters and their predicament, but has many plot holes and just doesn't seem to be resolved.
