    (UK) Exam (2009)

    This is another flick about a group of distinct people in a room trying to figure something out together. In this case it's a job opportunity, where they're presented with one question that requires only one answer. The only problem is they have no idea what the question is and they only have 80 minutes to figure it out.

    The pic started off pretty strong and intriguing, as we know nothing of the candidates and we as the viewer are trying to figure out the question along with the characters. However, around the half way mark a couple events occur that led me to start to predict the outcome and the film's once engrossing premise starts to slowly dissolve from there, especially as it begins to near its climax where we run into more familiar territory with these types of movies.

    Without spoiling too much, you'll likely be by the time the big reveal happens. Aside from the end, I also had a problem with the fictional disease that's brought up in the film, but I won't get into that. Decent flick that started off strong, but sadly only goes down from there. If you like movies like these then you may enjoy it, otherwise not really recommended.

    6/10

    I kinda enjoyed it - but I think it's one of those films you really need to be in the mood for....

    This, the killing room, and a handful of others are the 'one room' film genre. It's definitely one of the better entries, and worth watching.
