The Chamber (2016)

If you are into thriller, watch it. But, I guarantee you that the flow of the story was not good. Script was not executed clearly and so many changes of emotions, like it was skipping time but it wasn't. Red is always changing characteristic casually, and the other character are a bit of over acting. I'm not a hater, but The Chamber isn't thrilling or something interesting. It's like written geniusly at the start and the end, but the body is not that convincing.

A steely looking Tom Hanks lookalike lends his expertise and sea craft to a small special ops team on a recovery mission.We soon realise he is just a proto-main character and he quickly makes way for the female team leader to take charge of the storyline and screen. The mission quickly becomes a fight for survival as she makes one cretinous decision after another.Eventually she is challenged by her right hand man who is three times her size and has already knocked out a similarly sized character with a single punch. This is no problem for her though as she rips his shoulder out of it's socket then strangles him with her bare hands, but not before delivering some edgy put downs.In a final twist, her henchman rises from the dead and attacks Tom Hanks who by this time has been reduced to a useless damsel in distress. Not to worry. Our tiny heroine is on hand to save the day and kill him a second time! By this point I got the impression the audience was supposed to be rooting for her, which wasn't easy after her moronic actions had effectively killed everyone on board.Inevitably, the female is the only survivor and ends up stranded in the middle of the ocean. Couldn't have happened to a better person.Great if you're still not tired of the slowly dwindling feminist/sjw agenda.

As far as debut features go, this is one of the best. You can tell it has a low budget, but what Ben Parker manages to achieve with that low budget is great. In my opinion, it's up there with the likes of El Mariachi for making the most of it's little funding. It is by no means a perfect movie, but where it throws around the words "tense" and "claustrophobic", it delivers 100%. Ben Parker is a director to look out for.The soundtrack, provided by James Dean Bradfield of Manic Street Preachers, is good too. Adds quite a bit to the atmosphere of the movie, even if the volume of it could have been lowered a little in places. Again, it's a great first soundtrack for James, even if he has been in the music industry since the late 80's/early 90's. Hopefully this won't be his only one.Seriously, ignore the naysayers and check this one out for yourself.

The chamber is a really competent British movie, not so much horror more thriller despite the labelling. The story revolves around an oil rigger seconded by a military outfit to find something deep on the ocean floor.The film is a great combination of psychological cleverness and claustrophobia, it was very well put together clearly shot on a tight budget, but with the added bonus of being mainly shot in one location. One location should surely be boring, but it's not it's really cleverly done. Excellent performances and a really good thudding score make this movie a real classic of our time, I look forward to encountering the Chamber again.
