Death's Roulette

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.

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.

I love to watch movies in Spanish, this was probably my first Mexican movie ever. I got Paramount + a while ago to re-watch the original Scream movies and besides that I found the rest of the movies they offered on there a bit ''sad''. One night I was scrolling through Paramount + and just decided to give it a go, although I wasn't in the biggest mood to watch a movie.

The movie is exactly like you'd expect it to be. At times it kind of reminded me of Escape Room, although this is a bit different. The acting was great and so were the characters storylines.

I personally did not expect the ending even though some might. Good movie, does what it says on the synopsis and trailer.

This was a really good production. The set was top notch. The cast did amazingly well. I don't think there was any one out of the main cast that wasn't exquisite. I am always particular bout overdubs so I usually prefer subtitles, but this was done very well so I enjoyed it.

The story was very creative. It has the whole Saw vibes initially with them waking up and being trapped in a house. But after awhile you realize what this is all about and the movie takes on a life of its own. The only issue for me was the last 20 min. It just didn't work for me. It felt rushed and I wasn't quite convinced when the whole big reveal happened.

But it was a good watch. I enjoyed it and would certainly recommend it.
