Best I can give is 5*. The movie itself is not terrible and even that bad, but there are some serious problems. It's predictable. Second biggest problem is the cast, I couldn't care less about those guys (I blame the writer, cuz actors are good). As it goes, movie is getting better and better, there are some aspects that are awesome: idea, sound, scenes, costumes, lights... but overall I don't recommend this if you are not a fan of "puzzle movies" genre. Since I love Saw, Escape Room..., and in general this type is my cup of tea, I liked it, but I wouldn't recommend with a full heart this, if you are not mistery lover.

Not terrible, but I am a fan
This was pretty good, although predictable.
Here's The 4K Lowedown on "Death's Roulette" (NR - 2023 - Paramount+)
Genre: Thriller/Revenge
My Score: 6.4
Cast=4 Acting=7 Plot=6 Ending=7 Story=5
Intense=7 Pace=7 Suspense=7 Revenge=8 Twist=6
Seven people are kidnapped and suddenly find themselves part of a deadly game.
"Rule #1...you must choose one of yourselves to die." This was pretty good, although very predictable...it was like the antagonist looked me right in the face from the jump. You could fly a plane through the holes in the story and the puzzles that looked great at first really didn't stack up. This Spanish film is better subtitled than dubbed due to the fact that the dialogue is wrong when dubbed. This is a ok watch if you have nothing better to watch and have Paramount+.
5.7/10. Watchable but not recommended
This is a mystery movie. The plot is unoriginal as it gets. Some people trapped in a facility, trying to find why are they here, as they face an imminent danger. I like this genre and my expectations are not very high.
It was an interesting movie, never dragged. Not great acting, just sufficient enough to not distract me. As it progressed, it was getting better. There were a few surprises, even characters looked more interesting and likeable. Still, i wouldn't call it a good movie, but definitely it was watchable.
Then, a totally unnecessary twist happened that ruined the final 10 minutes. Sure it was unpredictable, but definitely not clever. Another big revelation happens in the final minutes that there was not a single hint before. For a twist to be good, it must have been foreshadowed before. This came out of nowhere. Lazy writing.
Not a bad movie and you will probably enjoy it if you love mystery movies and your expectations are low. As for me, i didn't enjoy it much. My expectations were not high, but this was pure mediocrity.
