About

You’ll like Green Room if you enjoy intense, realistic survival thrillers with gritty punk energy and nonstop fear; Not for you if you want clear explanations or lots of release action, and it may feel harsher than Longlegs or Don’t Breathe.

Pros: relentless tension; standout performances; tense survival stakes | Cons: confusing pacing; unclear motivations; polarizing ending
