Hall

The good: Amazingly swift virus that debilitates the infected super quickly. Not sure how it's spread; a very mysterious and man-made virus. Special effects are done fairly well and believable. My favorite part is that this is at the very beginning of the spread. It literally took over and killed almost everyone in just 1 hallway of a hotel, with the potential to spread to the entire place and eventually outside. The bad; Questionable characters. Yes the protagonist is very flawed, but you can't really blame her too much since she has been living with domestic violence for years. Two things that 1 star reviewers mention: The first - She left her child outside for so long! Well, she just found out that her husband is also physically abusing her daughter, and also she just watched said husband develop a really nasty zombie-like virus that just attacked her and then died a few minutes later. When she goes outside, she finds multiple people with the same virus, so of course she's in shock. She manages to find her daughter after all. The second is how she just left with her daughter without telling the hotel guests what's going on. I agree this is a selfish thing to do, but keep in mind that you don't know if anyone else is in on this virus; how can one floor be completely insane and find another floor having a party. They also stopped all dialog and had everyone looking directly at you (I find that highly suspect). The supernatural elements can be explained fairly easily. The ones that aren't showing symptoms but are seeing things are probably infected but haven't gone through the main phase yet (The Japanese lady imagined her mother in the hallway, confirming that one of the symptoms of the virus is seeing and hearing things that aren't there). Both the protagonist and her daughter were seeing things. I wish they would make a sequel and answer many of the questions, but with such poor reviews are unlikely.

Acting, storyline and plot is basically non existent. Horror label is non deserving. From the overly calm mom with a daughter all alone in an infected hotel to the girl for no real reason hearing her dead fathers voice off in the distance, this movie has no true plot or purpose for that matter.

This movie has potential. I don't normally write reviews on movies, but this one deserves one. First off, the mother, she is just horrible lol. She took so long to go to her daughter, I mean like seriously, going into the apartments, talking to other people, just doing everything BUT go save her daughter 😂 I started to feel bad for her cause of her husband but baby you will never leave your daughter alone for that long... another thing that annoyed me, is that she didn't tell NOT ONE SOUL what was going on... so you just scream "you need to get out of here" & that's it? Why not tell them there are sick & dead people on your hotel floor... this woman here... she was driving me crazy w/ her decisions. Other than that, it was a decent movie, too much scene of Naomi crawling on the floor though. I like the idea of the movie entirely, but it could've been better, but still good job though 🤙🏾

It's very hard escaping an abusive relationship. I unfortunately know from experience. You imagine horrible scenarios and awful things that could happen should you try to leave. The route to your escape (hallway, car, stairs, elevator) seems cluttered, dangerous and long. If you screw up, both you and your child may die (Naomi and unborn child) but you still must try. If you have a still and small voice encouraging you to still leave and "that your daughter needs you" (woman with daughter locked in random hotel room) then you're lucky. Downstairs, it was shown that there was no state emergency. This woman and daughter (albeit fictional) got away. Love this film.

Absolutely horrendously slow and frustrating to watch a cast of characters move like snails away from a ravenous virus . Terrible. I can't say enough how frustrating this movie is. If you like slow movies that you yell at the screen at the characters for being dumb, watch this. If not... Stay away.

The movie is repetitive and illogical and the main character is painstakingly frustrating! As the film progresses you begin to understand why the husband thinks her wife is a very silly person. Give her the award of worst mom of the year!

Super slow, the personality of the characters are predictable and with no construction at all. 80 minutes just trying to figure out what was really going on and seeing a lot of feet scenes What wrong with the mother? Prefers to gossip and be naive than go and save her daughter. Nonono, terrible. The typical "bad guy" with an "evil plan" trying to conquer the world.

It's really hard to find anything positive to say about this film , possibly the only redeeming thing is the fact that it's quite short. The story is weak and the mothers lack of interest in her daughters well being is frustrating and unrealistic. How it got 80% on rotten tomatoes is genuinely shocking. Don't fall for it , its a trap. The film is garbage!

A frustratingly slow movie, 3 people laying on a hotel hall carpet. One of them crawls along for about 60 minutes thats about it. Nothing happens. You keep waiting thinking something will happen soon...but no.
