Review of Green Room (2016) by Thequietgamer — 04 Sep 2016

It's balls to the walls tension and violence for the punk rockers. The Ain't Rights find themselves in a situation that, well, just ain't right. Talk about ending your tour with a bang.

The set up doesn't leave much time for things like character development. That isn't really the point here. You're just here to watch these characters get mixed up in a bad situation and have to fight their way out. When it comes to that, Green Room delivers.

Even better is that it manages to do so in an exciting way. One with excellent tension and believability. It helps that it doesn't shy away from the violence either. It packs a punch and it does so with style. Some great tunes and genuine punk rock style take it over the top, even if some of it gets drowned out by random slow-mo scenes in the earlier part of the film that just feel oddly included. It's a good thing they ditched them early on.

It's simply just an awesome horror-thriller. One with brutality, edge of your seat tension, and some great villains. The acting is top-notch all around and the way everything plays out just feels real. This punk rock band vs. white supremacists performance will have you screaming for an encore.
