For those who have seen something like Cube: try not to compare these movies against each other. Sorry I mean on praying - crawling is the thing one has to do. Though I reckon one should not waste too much time on crawling. Now despite everything ive said about this movie i would still recommend it if youre into the kind of genre, because even though the plot kinda sucks, everything else is pertty good, there were some pretty good puzzles and clever moments in the game itself, just dont expect a very well written plot. The majority of this movie is just watching a girl crawl through tubes and avoid traps, we didnt really learn much about what was happening until the very end, and until then it just never progresses anything. Also this movie seems to have a similar problem with the movie "circle" and "cadaver" where it doesnt really have any progression or narrative, it just keeps going on and on without accomplishing anything narritive-wise until it hits its runtime. doesnt, because the plot needs her alive. Theres also a couple conveniences in the script, theres several moments in the film where the main character should very well die but just. Its pretty clear that the writers were just making up stuff as they went along, apparent by how everything that happens in it gets progressively weirder and weirder, to the point where it gets completely nonsensical and all-over-the-place by the end. To the films credit it had a lot of good set work and cinematography, but the main issue with it is how it gradually falls apart the longer it goes on. Ok, so when the movie started out i thought it was going to be pretty good, i always liked mystery movies where someone wakes up in an unknown location and has to solve mysteries and puzzles to get out. Sadly I didn't enjoy 'Meander' much after being excited to see it for a while now. I won't describe what she needed to do, but it was so basic it created no intrigue whatsoever. I was also disappointed by how simple the premise ultimately was. There is no character interaction in sight - which doesn't have to be a bad thing - but on this occasion made everything very dull and monotonous. But then the next 30 minutes are very disappointing. Then we are introduced to the tunnels and get a real 'Cube' (one of my favourite sci-fi films) feel. A decent opening scene setting things up and then a little mini-twist. Which is a shame because it started out so promisingly. More than anything I just wanted it to be over by the end. I think I understand for the most part what it was intended to mean, but I certainly don't care enough to go seeking out confirmation. Sometimes a film is confusing and you absolutely have to find out what is was about, while other times a film is confusing and you just find it annoying.
