Green Room

So pretty. So brutal. Welcome to heil!

Great movie. Pretty scary. Also ruthless. One of Patrick Stewart's best roles.

Wow, it's even more gruesome and intense than I remember. The plot is simple, it's about a punk band becomes trapped in a venue after witnessing a murder and is forced to survive against a bunch of neonazis. There's no plot changing, no surprises, no heroic or dramatic moments, it simply manages to display something really raw and realistic. That's what I genuinely love about this film. The build up of tension is uncompromising. I can feel the frustation and adrenaline from here, it really gets your heart racing. The claustrophobic setting and the effective use of gory violence help making the situation more tense and thrilling. The acting all around is great and very convincing. The characters are able to show organic reaction and make reasonable decisions. With its speedy pace, relentless brutality and the cute jokes that surprisingly work, I really enjoyed this roller coaster of a thriller. RIP Anton Yelchin.

No complaints... It was good.

This movie kept me in a state of unease and suspense the whole time. I used to play in a punk band so a lot of the band side seemed familiar and having to find last minute gigs is not fun, but sometimes you have to play in shady areas. The things that this band has to go through by playing in a neo-Nazi club... unsettling. Also, who knew Patrick Stewart had a dark, scary side to him.

Great film.

An intense horror movie with a great performance from Anton Yelchin and a unique role for Patrick Stewart.

Sad that Anton Yelchin died the same year as this movie. Such a talented actor and this was one of his best. Imogen Poots is excellent as well. She's probably the most bad ass one movie in the movie.
I agree with the critics more than the commentators here. This movie is really good.

I really can't explain why "Green Room" flopped so badly at the box office. Maybe it's because of the marketplace at the time; today, it would certainly make a lot more than three million dollars. In any case, it's a really strong horror thriller that never fails to surprise. You can roughly guess where the journey is going, but it never happens exactly as you expect. There's nothing to complain about with the camera or the music either; both are very fitting. Furthermore, the violence is quite graphic in places, which also fits in well with the plot. Even the casting was done right, Anton Yelchin and Imogen Poots are particularly strong. You shouldn't expect too much depth in the characters, and there isn't a spectacular finale either, but the movie is so thrilling overall that these are minor flawss. Horror fans who have not yet seen "Green Room" should definitely check this one out.

Not particularly deep or great with its character work, but it’s very engaging and tense, almost begging to get a physical reaction out of you as a viewer.
It’s weird, because you could easily make a statement about the ideology of punk within a neonazi environment, but they’re not really attempting to do that (not that they have to, of course).
Instead, we’re getting a thriller/slasher that’s lean, mean and impressively avoids being cliche at any point.
I absolutely love how they shot it (it almost feels like a trip back to _The Matrix_, it’s very atmospheric), music and acting are also very well done.
I just wish they added a few more scenes in order to make these characters stronger, because I don’t have any major complaints besides that.

7.5/10

Some nice graphic and realistically looking violence.
