Uno Para Morir

I always find it a little hard to get fully immersed in dubbed films. The voices never matching the look of the character and being out of time with the lips can be quite distracting. It's not the movie's fault at all, I'm very appreciative they do it so we can enjoy films from all countries, but it certainly does detract just a little from the film. All the same, I had a pretty good time with 'Death's Roulette'.

This is my type of movie it should be pointed out. A contained mystery/thriller set mostly in one location. Sign me up. The film did what this type of film needs to do. It kept things moving at a good pace and made sure there was always more than enough going on to keep us interested.

The entire movie isn't one location however. We do get a suspense sequence near the end set in a giant maze that I thought was quite impressive. The maze itself looked incredible and all I could think was how much I'd like to run that maze myself.

A couple of twists along the way and a sense that any ending was on the cards all added up to quite a fun viewing experience. 7/10.

This is an ok movie, not in my native language, but i still managed to follow it.

The set up is a group of people who at first seem random (mostly) strangers, but as the plot develops, that is shown not to be the case. If that premise sounds familiar, it's because it's been done many times before, in movies such as The Circle, Escape Room and The Exam.

The acting is pretty good and the story is well paced, but where i have the biggest issue is with the ending. I won't spoil it but lets just say it left me feeling very unsatisfied.

This is worth a go if you have a short while to spare and are ok with subtitles (unless Spanish), but of you want good story writing, maybe this isn't ideal.

I will ad,t. Going into this movie I thought it would be another knock off of escape room. But I was definitely surprised! This was definitely worth the watch and time well spent! It was not predictable at all like most movies nowadays are. Loved the camera work as well very vivid and even in the dark sense you could make out what was doing on. I saw a few actors i know, or that I have seen in other foreign films. I do believe each of the character's did awesome in making me believe this story was legit.

So definity a good movie is you like psychological / thrillers. Then this will be a treat for you. But as always be your own judge.

Best I can give is 5*. The movie itself is not terrible and even that bad, but there are some serious problems. It's predictable. Second biggest problem is the cast, I couldn't care less about those guys (I blame the writer, cuz actors are good). As it goes, movie is getting better and better, there are some aspects that are awesome: idea, sound, scenes, costumes, lights... but overall I don't recommend this if you are not a fan of "puzzle movies" genre. Since I love Saw, Escape Room..., and in general this type is my cup of tea, I liked it, but I wouldn't recommend with a full heart this, if you are not mistery lover.

This new movie on Paramount+ is perfect to watch on a weekend night with your favorite person. A simple and well told story with twists and a common thread that hooks you to the television. It's nice to see the beginning of an actor as a director, Manolo Cardona has experience as a producer and now he dares to direct and had a great cast and a good choice of script in which he also contributed. It's not very bloody, but the story is quite twisted and makes you think at various times,"what would I do if I were in that situation?" The cast of actors each shine in their role, impressive how talented they are.
