Escape the Field

This was not as bad as so many are saying. I have teenagers & preteens that love thrillers and scary movies and this worked out great for them to watch. There was no nudity/sex scenes and just mild gore, but yes people do get killed. This probably should have been rated PG-13 in my opinion. If you are looking for something to watch with your older kids this is not bad. Aside from the many F bombs, it's pretty mild. There are a few jump scares and intense scenes which was exactly what we wanted to experience. The mystery of it kept you guessing. The acting was good but not great. I think the movie could have used at least one character that stood out more or made you root for them more. The character development was just not there. A back story on how they got there or what they had in common or why they were chosen would have been a good subplot. So anyway here are the spoilers : I had figured this movie out as soon as Ryan gets injected with something and gets stronger and starts to change. I called it in front of my family and I was right.. Most people who are giving the bad reviews didn't watch the scene right after the ending credits which reveals what I was right about.. The whole thing is an experiment to see who can survive and it all revolves around what Ryan gets injected with. All the clues and the maze is just a distraction to wear them down. The experiment is repeated with new subjects until " they " get the results they want. Each new group goes through the same ordeal until one gets injected with the mystery concoction and goes crazy & changes and then that person hunts the new group until someone survives the hunter, then they get ready for " Phase 2 " which I assume there will be a sequel : maybe / maybe not. Overall I give this movie a 8 to help with the bad ratings but really I'd give it a 6 . It was different and entertaining and kept you guessing. The teens liked it.

Started off really well with a lot of interesting ideas and thought it was going to rival and beat the recent Stephen King Corn movie adaption but it seems the writer just copied the Stephen King movie and lost his way. I do like Theo Rossi but some really hammy acting from Shane West with his pseudo-hard man stare and the terrible acting from Jordan Clair Robbins had me wincing at the end and it is the usually woke casting letting it down too which did not help! The whole thing unravelled so quickly as did the tension and horror that the ending did not resolve anything and you are left with more queStions than answers - silly silly silly! Problem as with most low budgeters these days is they start off well then just go straight down the toilet and this is one of them and what was it with the mid credits end scene? It is as if it now has become a staple just to stick one in but in this case just for the sake of it. Sorry folks but this one is a Turkey and it is not even Christmas yet!

These people seem like they haven't even watched the movie but got paid to write bad reviews. I liked the plot and it was really cute interesting compared to the stupid movies that are made nowadays.?pretty sure these people with bad reviews are the people who gives 10 to the king Richard.

This is newb producer, writer and director Emerson Moore's second film (with only one prior short), and it wasn't as bad as all these wannabe critics and their one's. Clearly it was a low budget B film, and all things considered, I've seen worse big budget Hollywood A-films lately. Moore's directing was actually impressive, with some great aerial shots, unexpected jump-scares, and fairly decent cast direction. Cinematography was spot-on, but it was the score - especially for a B film, that was perfection. This is a rarity in B films, where the score is always loud, overbearing, constant and unfitting. Even the pacing was decent for the 89 min runtime. There was however a huge missed opportunity with the writing; of the three writers, had one of them been somewhat a seasoned writer, the story could've been more cohesive. Although a refreshing and original take on the "escape room" genre films, there were some elements that could've been omitted, such as the red vile-filled dart and what followed, and other elements than needed more attention, such as a better narrative structure and more character development. I don't mind films that leave unanswered questions, but a little more clarity would've gone a long way. The ending wasn't bad either, but also had potential to be much more. Rookie mistakes aside, I still enjoyed this one, and it's a well deserved 7/10 for the newb filmmaker. I hope Moore takes advantage of the door he left open for a sequel.

Absolutely horrible. I know some movies ignore logic but this movie just ignores everything. Literally a waste of time. Please don't watch this movie. Nothing about it is good. Half way through the movie. I had way more questions then answers. It just seems like they just made the movie just because they could make it. This is why I don't like watching movies. I wasted my life watching this movie. Don't be like me. Skip this movie.

The actors don't know how to act. The movie is slow and boring. There is no action. I give this movie an F. I wasted my time with this film. It made me sleep.

There is no better way to say this than, it's impossible to enjoy this movie that leads to a non-ending with no conclusion, no revelations, nothing noteworthy explaining the mystery. And that's a pretty cardinal sin in a mystery movie. I would say watch "Into the tall grass" instead, also not an amazing movie, but better than this. I actually really enjoy movies like "Escape Room" and "Tournament of Champions", the cube, squid game and it feels like this movie wants to be one of those, but ends up being none of those. It's too bad, because the actors are working hard, it's shot well, effort has gone into this, truly. If you could reshoot the ending, make it a little longer, give it an actual ending, than it would work. But it's simply horrible in its current state. I'm kind of hoping this was a case of the studio or producers screwing this up, which still would be horrible, but then at least it wasn't the fault of the writers/director and the actors.

Every once & a while a movie like this is released & it restores your faith in Horror Thrillers. I can honestly say this is a fun thought provoking Horror/Thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat Start to Finish! 9/10 👍👍

The movie is very good the scenes are very beautiful and is worthy of your time. The movie has a very special feel to it which makes the movie very good. The characters are also very good specially Tyler.
