I had not even heard about this 2021 horror mystery titled "No One Gets Out Alive" prior to sitting down to watch it on Netflix. But I must admit that the synopsis for the movie sounded interesting, and so did the title of the movie. And with it being a new horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I had to sit down to watch. I am a horror fan after all.
And I will say that writers Jon Croker and Fernanda Coppel actually managed to put together an entertaining storyline, especially so since it never really dawned on me what was going on throughout the course of the movie. Actually, even now that the movie ended, I wasn't clear on why or what was really going on. So that was a good thing, I suppose. But at the same time it left me a bit dumbfounded as I felt no proper explanation was given throughout the course of the entire movie.
The atmosphere that permeated the movie was good, so director Santiago Menghini definitely did a good job in bringing the story to life on the screen. And the props were good, just as the sets were good, and those things definitely added a very dynamic and atmospheric layer to the movie.
As for the acting performances in the movie, well they had some pretty good actors and actresses, despite the fact that the cast list was a bit small. I wasn't familair with the people on the cast list, but the actors and actresses were doing good jobs in bringing their characters to life on the screen.
The creature design in the movie was good, though I haven't the slightest of clues as to what it was supposed to be or represent.
"No One Gets Out Alive" is watchable and entertaining for what it turned out to be. I just wished, personally, that the storyline would have been more fulfilling in terms of letting the audience in on what was actually transpiring throughout the course of the movie.
I am rating "No One Gets Out Alive" a five out of ten stars. Watchable and entertaining for sure, but the movie just didn't come off as being particularly impressive or memorable.
