Would You Rather has been suggested to me by a couple of people in the last few months, but I kept putting it off because it just looked generic. It did drag on in spots, but it did provide that feeling of "who's going to do what next" or "who's going to die next". To be fair, it was a little more engaging than I originally expected it to be, but even the dementedly delightful performance put on by the legendary Jeffrey Combs couldn't hold this one up high enough to warrant me a second viewing or even wanting it on dvd or blu-ray. Even though it physically didn't have any elaborate traps like the Saw franchise, there was that similar piece in the background where everyone was expected "to play the game to survive and learn a lesson." I will say this though- the build up from the time the whole group starts eating dinner until the very end when someone wins is actually very well structured and fast paced and it does leave you wanting to see what will happen next.
Iris is cute. Give her the damn job.
Kind of warm for a beanie, don't you think?
These assclowns don't care about you or your brother. They just care about themselves and money. That's it.
Mr. Lambrick is Jeffery Combs, right? Or am I losing my shit?
PSP? Nice!
You could get lost in this house, son.
I have a feeling this is going to be kind of a gory version of Clue.
$10,000 to eat a damn steak? Hell yeah! Give me that money, son!
Head like a hole.
Amy is gorgeous. Sorry.
I want to hit that blonde haired faggot with that whipping stick until he can't talk.
When the final scene came, I already had an inkling that what happens was going to happen. Was it worth the risk and the ride? That's up to you to decide. I would venture to say that this fits into the torture porn category, if barely. At any point in time any one of the characters that were playing the game could have easily just tried to interrupt everything and kill both Lambrick's and Bevans and it would've all been over. But, if that happened, there wouldn't be a movie would there? Would You Rather watch this? No. You'd rather play more Fallout 4.
