Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
... View MoreAs somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
... View MoreIt's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
... View MoreWhile it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
... View MoreAmy Roberts (Christine Taylor) has a fear of hospitals and nightmares of being awake for surgery. Her boyfriend Nick (Shane Brolly) tries to propose but Amy is in a rush to get to school. Her student Melissa Norman (Chloë Grace Moretz) also has creepy dreams, but according to Melissa, she's not strong enough to help. She and Nick get into a car accident with another driver Lucas (Jerry O'Connell). The paramedics take Nick to the hospital but doesn't tell her where. She can't seem to find Nick anywhere. Lucas can't find his sister either when other paramedics take her to the mysterious St. Rosemary's hospital.It's a lot of shrill screaming from Christine Taylor. There are a couple of good interesting actors like Mary Pat Gleason, but there are too many amateurs in this. That's what happens when you give strippers actual lines to read. Quite frankly, Shane Brolly isn't good enough to lead his part of the movie. Jerry O'Connell is too standoffish. He is too obvious and the twist is telegraphed.The biggest problem is that this production just doesn't have the money behind it. It is a big ambitious horror done on the cheap. The monster makeup isn't that good. It looks even worst in the daylight. I can almost see the bigger, more grander movie that the script alludes to. This movie just doesn't look well put together.
... View MoreI was hoping for a good horror movie to watch on dark nights,sadly this film wasn't it.It has a very weak script that seemed to use aspects of different and better horror movies.A woman has bad dreams who seemed to love screaming throughout this movie played by Christine Taylor.I'm sorry but I kept wishing that someone would put a gag on her mouth. An accident waiting to happen,A hospital that wasn't there,patients that disappear,a little girl spouting warnings,blah,blah,blah.This film was a mess,too confusing to understand.It seemed they didn't have a clue what they wanted this film to be,so they threw a mixture of different things together and hoped for the best.The outcome-pointless waste of money.
... View MoreI usually don't mind playing the devil's advocate and be the only one who doesn't have anything nasty to say about a movie that was already extremely criticized. However, while I intend to keep standing up for a few misunderstood gems, there's nothing I can say to save or defend "Room 6". It's a real shame actually, because the movie had some fairly meritorious deal of potential and I was even willing to leave aside the unintentional funny moments and the occasional bad acting. Unfortunately, the ending undeniably ruined the whole thing and that's just something that I can't tolerate in horror movies nowadays. I don't understand why there are tons of movies out there that even though they're not exactly masterpieces, they're okay and all of a sudden, through the last minutes, something extremely stupid happens and ruins the film entirely. This is the case of "Room 6", along with many other films that came out lately.In "Room 6", a young schoolteacher named Amy, finds herself struggling with very unpleasant circumstances, after a tragic car accident she suffers with her boyfriend, Nick. After this unpleasant event, Amy, who has a strange aversion to hospitals, decides to confront her phobia and looks for her boyfriend. Unconveniently, right after the accident, Nick is mysteriously taken by two strecher bearers who refuse to give Amy any information about where they would leave him. Desperate and with no one else to turn to, the young school teacher, hopelessly tries to find her boyfriend in a world gone mad, full of people who seem to be hiding something from her and some weird demons on the loose. Simoultaneously, another young man named Lucas, who was involved in the same car accident, finds himself in a similar situation and decides to team up with Amy in a search that makes them experience some of the most bizarre and fearful circumstances.If I have to be honest, I actually believe the story is not all that bad. Perhaps it was somehow inspired by some previous stories, but the idea itself wasn't terrible. The problem is that the execution was terribly done. First of all, there are things that simply don't have and explanation and they only add confussion to a simple story that doesn't need all these "comes and goes" that lead to nowhere itself. The background story about Amy and her late father somehow appears out of place and the typical little girl who knows too much seems extremely far-fetched. Also, even though the two leading actors are fairly popular (Christine Taylor and Jerry O'Conell), the acting was beyond laughable. I don't know if they both went backwards to the early days of their career or if they were simply badly directed. All I know is that Ms. Taylor and Mr O'Conell were disappointing and I didn't expected two familiar faces in such a silly project that was somehow doomed from the get-go. Ellie Cornell was by far the best thing about this film and not only regarding the acting. Her character, a low-class and foul-mouthed trailer-trash woman, works as some kind of comedy relief to the story and while the results are modest, I myself found this character in particular as one of the highest points of the film. Ms. Cornell definitely is a magnificent actress and it was nice to see her leaving the sweet Rachel she once played in "Halloween 4", behind. Perhaps she is the only reason why this big mess is enjoyable in the end.
... View MoreAt first I though this film narrative had potential to be a relatively good movie but how wrong I was. I found after less 30 minuets of watching I was more than ready to turn off and only continued watching in hopeless thinking that it might have picked up. The acting in this film is truly awful and any attempt at "running away" or chase scenes sees Christine Taylor do no more than a pathetic jog.The random lesbian nurse scene seemed only slightly relevant to the film itself, and poses for "eye-candy" purpose, rather than adding anything to the actual plot.The ending was very predictable and I was relieved that they didn't show Amy in heaven with her father at the end, to make for an extremely cheesy ending.In short, don't bother seeing it and tell your friends to do the same.
