Goofs

Just before Kelley's being kidnapped, she's having a call with her iPhone. It displays the keypad, which (including the green "make call" button) is not visible during a regular call. The light sensor wouldn't allow to show the display either, when the iPhone is placed just next to the ear.

Quotes

Shooter: I have brought the nine of you here for a reason. Your survival depends on you figuring out what that reason is. I will leave you alone for your discussions but I will return every ten minutes and kill one of you until you've figured it out or until you are all dead. You have ten minutes.

User Reviews

complete rubbish

This is my first review on IMDb but i was so outraged at the reviews on IMDb that i had to write something. This is a dreadful film, and when I say dreadful i mean health and safety corporate videos are better crafted, the acting is extremely poor (imagine pornography without the nudity and sex), the plot is dull (i actually turned the volume down and created my own) and the script is unbelievably dire (so clichéd with lines you would hear on daytime women's shows). even the alleged problems/crimes these people are supposed to have committed where dull and unimaginative... I genuinely cannot believe films like this get made. It is like watching first year acting students reading a script that was written on a napkin in the car on the way to the "set". I am suspicious of any ratings over 2 and some of the reviews on here giving the film 7+ are a disgrace, and are either the work of complete idiots or a flagrant abuse of IMDb by the "production" crew of this manure. AVOID AT ALL COSTS....try reading, walking, putting bleach in your eyes.
