Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

Escape Room (out Feb 7) follows in the footsteps of the successful Saw franchise and is about a group of strangers who are invited to participate in a new escape room and suddenly find themselves fighting for their lives (in addition to the exit). There are plot holes and a few odd stylistic choices from director Adam Robitel but I still loved the concept and the cool sets. It held my attention all the way through. Grade: B.
