Biggest Swing

The film peaks with its most inventive room design in the upside-down billiards hall, then crashes with a widely-criticized sequel-baiting ending.

Escape Room starts modestly but builds strong momentum through its creative room designs and visual inventiveness, peaking in the middle act with genuinely tense and well-crafted puzzle sequences. However, the film loses steam in its final act and ends on a sour note with a transparent sequel setup that reviewers found disappointing and manipulative.
