A lot of potential, but never fully comes to fruition. Fincher adds a lot of style, but ultimately the film falls short of being memorable.

| synopsis | This claustrophobic thriller centers on a divorcée and her daughter who are caught in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with three burglars in their New York City brownstone, retreating to the vault-like safety of their aptly named panic room. As the intruders try to breach the room's security, the embattled duo must stay one step ahead. |
