9/10
Red Rooms is engaging from the start, and not with a cheap hook or flashy tricks, but through masterfully crafted cinematic techniques.

The style of this movie is flawless feeling…
9.4/10
It feels like a window into the past and into a different place. It never feels like a movie with actors telling a story, but real situations and settings with real people captured on film. All the performances are outstanding from the youngest to the oldest actresses. Pain, sadness and anxiety are ingrained in people’s faces. This is not a hopeful film and it’s never afraid to show how stark reality can be. Seeing actual locations instead of sets…

8.5/10
[mini review]

4.1/10
This movie follows all the found footage common tropes sometimes less successfully than others. It's not too original, but at least it manages to create a concise mood and an interesting texture of the image. It also has a few uncanny and shocking visual effects that kind of save this movie from being terrible. The plot just moves forward without making any sense and characters act with no real motivation. All of them just run and scream. They scream…
