Synopsis:

From IMDb: “A bright but meek salesman, drowning in debt as he’s about to get married, receives a mysterious phone call informing him that he’s on a hidden camera game show where he must execute 13 tasks to receive a multi-million dollar cash prize.”

Poster: C+

Review: The puppeteer motif isn’t new, nor is it a very good one to use. However, it almost works here, but only if you’ve seen the trailer. Otherwise, it doesn’t make the least bit of sense.

Trailer: B-

Review: There’s an interesting premise struggling to escape this generic and confusing trailer. There’s a plot there, if you dig for it, but the excessive Seven-meets-Saw vibe almost derails it.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
