Jeremy Saulnier hat ein Händchen fürs Unangenehme: Schon sein furztrockenes Rachedrama Blue Ruin war ein garantierter Stimmungskiller. Green Room schlägt in die gleiche Kerbe – und kippt noch literweise Blut und Fleisch darüber. Die linkeJeremy Saulnier hat ein Händchen fürs Unangenehme: Schon sein furztrockenes Rachedrama Blue Ruin war ein garantierter Stimmungskiller. Green Room schlägt in die gleiche Kerbe – und kippt noch literweise Blut und Fleisch darüber. Die linke Punkband Ain’t Rights wählt für den nächsten Gig genau den falschen Ort – eine Hillbilly-Nazikneipe voller gewaltgeiler Pappköpfe. Als sie dann noch einen Mord beobachten, mutiert die ohnehin miese Lage zu einem brutalen Kampf auf Leben und Tod. Anfangs klaustrophobisch spannend, wird Green Room mit jedem Kill stumpfer – und ähnlich kopflos handeln seine Darsteller. Nur Oberglatze Patrick Stewart bringt mit eiskaltem Kalkül etwas Tiefgang in einen ansonsten eher handlungsarmen Survival-Thriller.… Expand

This is well directed, well acted and successfully creates great tension. However there are two big negatives - Patrick Stewart is unable to shake off the shackles of his past roles and it just feels plain wrong to have him in this role.

However there are two big negatives - Patrick Stewart is unable to shake off the shackles of his past roles and it just feels plain wrong to have him in this role. And secondly, it's shot with that horrible green/orange filter that every horror film has had over the last five years. Not a fan of the genre but this is one of the better recent examples.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie could have been great. Instead it's boring. Why have a movie called Green Room, when there is nothing special about the green room? They're supposed to be trapped in the green room, YET they escape the green room twice and THEN THEY GO BACK INSIDE AND RE-LOCK THEMSELVES INSIDE THE GREE ROOM. Along with zero character development and zero story, this movie missed the chance to be a classic.… Expand

The credible and the incredible meet to baffling effect in this strangely confused and confusing thriller. Ambiguous plot points and unexplained story elements leave one cold and, for a short film, it sure does out stay its welcome. Even theThe credible and the incredible meet to baffling effect in this strangely confused and confusing thriller. Ambiguous plot points and unexplained story elements leave one cold and, for a short film, it sure does out stay its welcome. Even the gore and horror moments are inconsistent and the visual effects make-up looks too unconvincingly rubbery to truly shock. The fact that someone with the type of hand injury as demonstrated here could go from victim to avenging vigilante is demonstrative of just how ludicrous aspects of the story are, and that’s before we start dissecting the paint ball theory. The familiar face of Patrick Stewart further distances credibility. His part called for someone of anonymity in the role and, whilst he is perfectly acceptable, you can’t help but think that it’s Patrick Stewart from the enterprise. The film also fails to thrill as it should and only comes to life momentarily when the victims start to fight back. Even then cast members disappear with a cough and a spit, gorily, but with none of the fanfare of tension that usually prolongs such situations in the best thriller/horror movies. Green Room may have one foot in the real world, but the other is definitely in the realms of fantasy.… Expand

Another pretty over rated film being hailed as the next best thing when youve seen it thousands of times before. The film actually has a great buildup and needed more explanation. Good music too, besides some gore there wasnt anything new for me.
