Alicia I love this movie so much
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Josh This was on my to-watch list for quite a while before I gave it a chance. Holy crap this movie is good. Not ten stars good, obviously, but man it throws some curve balls. All of the actors were competent and believable. The tension builds and builds. The ending was stereotypical but didn't detract from the film at all. Wonder how much time Patrick Stewart had to spend in makeup to play a skinhead lol.
calebseabert Watched this movie on tv the other night, great film and very suspenseful, the films so good you dont want it to end!
Antonio Kowatsch "Green Room" is a very suspenseful movie. The premise of the movie is that a Punk Rock band that's slowly running out of money finally manages to land a gig that might keep them afloat for a while. So far so good. But what they don't know is that the gig is supposed to be held at a neo-Nazi bar. There were plenty of "red flags" that they should've noticed right from the get go. But I guess they really needed the money. So they perform their songs and as they're about to leave they witness a murder through an unfortunate turn of events. All the sudden they find themselves in a problematic situation; now that they've seen the murder they can't just be let go. For the majority of the movie the protagonists find themselves trapped in that one room; the very room where the murder took place. First against their will. Later on however as the circumstances change they stay in the room for their own protection. Things start to escalate as the owner of the bar starts to prepare for the worst case scenario. The constant tension and dread is palpable. After all the protagonists are nothing but a bunch kids (figuratively speaking. They are teenagers) trying to survive in this hostile environment. Meanwhile their captors are armed and dangerous. Which becomes very apparent as the movie progresses. This isn't their first ride at the rodeo. They have clearly done this before.
NormanCroucher 'Green Room' matches the intensity and grimness of writer/director Jeremy Saulnier's breakout effort 'Blue Ruin', but lacks the soul that made that film so haunting and tragically poetic.It stars the late Anton Yelchin in another low key, naturalistic performance alongside a cast of young character actors who really sell the authenticity of this world. It's grimy and dirty and frightening, and that's even before the violent mayhem starts. The atmosphere is dripping with bad vibes and simmering with an undercurrent of violence, and this feeling is mostly thanks to a convincing cast and some tautly engineered direction. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the cast is Patrick Stewart as the neo-nazi establishment owner who coldly calculates the demise of our main characters. Once you get past the fact that it is Sir Patrick (The Sci-fi Nerd King) breaking some bad, he really is quite chilling to watch.The film has several disturbingly violent sequences that escalate with each new confrontation until a fairly scattershot climax and it mostly makes for a tense watch. However, because the characters aren't explored in any significant way it supplies us with only superficial thrills via the visceral nature of the violence depicted and the fact that we naturally prefer that the underwritten heavy metal rockers win out over the underwritten nutball Nazis who are trying to slay them. It's ultimately just a dirty indie remake of John Carpenter's 'Assault on Precinct 13', but it does a good job of living up to its heritage.
