Reviews
Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
christianloteyro If you are into thriller, watch it. But, I guarantee you that the flow of the story was not good. Script was not executed clearly and so many changes of emotions, like it was skipping time but it wasn't. Red is always changing characteristic casually, and the other character are a bit of over acting. I'm not a hater, but The Chamber isn't thrilling or something interesting. It's like written geniusly at the start and the end, but the body is not that convincing.
gav_c If I judge Navy seals and spec ops on this movie they are made up of crying, incompetent, babies, absolutely no idea the director of this movie. Basically a movie based on a very bad decision by the female commander of the op which gets the entire crew killed. Even after repeated warnings not to blow up the UAV, It's like the director had a brain fart and ran out of ideas and thought sod it let's blow some stuff up and we will take it from there. As for the ending OMG!!!! Worst ending ever.
imatosser182 A steely looking Tom Hanks lookalike lends his expertise and sea craft to a small special ops team on a recovery mission.We soon realise he is just a proto-main character and he quickly makes way for the female team leader to take charge of the storyline and screen. The mission quickly becomes a fight for survival as she makes one cretinous decision after another.Eventually she is challenged by her right hand man who is three times her size and has already knocked out a similarly sized character with a single punch. This is no problem for her though as she rips his shoulder out of it's socket then strangles him with her bare hands, but not before delivering some edgy put downs.In a final twist, her henchman rises from the dead and attacks Tom Hanks who by this time has been reduced to a useless damsel in distress. Not to worry. Our tiny heroine is on hand to save the day and kill him a second time! By this point I got the impression the audience was supposed to be rooting for her, which wasn't easy after her moronic actions had effectively killed everyone on board.Inevitably, the female is the only survivor and ends up stranded in the middle of the ocean. Couldn't have happened to a better person.Great if you're still not tired of the slowly dwindling feminist/sjw agenda.
Joe Bruno I can't really fault the sets or effects as the entire set is pretty limited. Cinematography is OK, Audio is OK, Sound Track is serviceable and thankfully not annoying.Kuhnke (as "Mats") does a pretty solid job given a pretty weak script. Salt (as "Edwards" aka Stick-Girl) and McArdle (as "Parks" aka Dough-Boy) are both unsuitable to be cast as "military personnel" and unforgivable as "SEALs". Why IN THE WORLD did they cast a woman as a SEAL Team Commander? Seriously?... and a pallid, anorexic one at that? If you're as tired of the SJW/Feminist pandering that goes on in film as I am, you might want to pass this one up .... otherwise be prepared to see yet another 85lb supposed "super woman" with arms about the size of my 2-year old's throwing around a guy three times her size - eventually killing him with her bare hands. Right. SO believable. Additionally, the lack of discipline in both conduct and language coming from these supposedly "elite" soldiers is laughably bad - watching the two "SEALS" argue is like watching an old married couple fight.... and they fight a LOT. Since the writer apparently didn't seem to know any military personnel, he at least could have watched "The Abyss" a few times before writing his highly pressurized SEALs ;)I can't help but think that if the movie had been cast with believable characters, it would have added a star or two to the rating - even with the hideous dialog.There isn't a lot more to the movie, so I'll close with the suggestion that if you want to see a movie similar in many ways to this one, yet superior in every way, check out "Pressure"(2015) - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3029476/
