Q.6. If a person infected with the film's virus must take one pill every hour to stay alive, how many pills will he consume in a year?

Q.7. Is this film worth watching?

Q.8. What rating does the film deserve out of 10?

Answers

Q.1. Saw, Cube, TV's The Apprentice

Q.2. Undoubtedly. Although the film suggests that the candidates are competing for a 'job you would kill for', the level of violence is remarkably low.

Q.3. The first film mentioned in the answer to Question 1 is Saw; what do you think?

Q.4. Do bears do their proverbial in the woods?

Q.5. 100%

Q.6. 8760, provided he or she is able to wake up every hour, every night to continue the treatment-which is unlikely.

Q.7. Surprisingly, yes. Although the script is highly preposterous and raises many questions, the movie flows impressively in real time, the cast put in convincing performances, and director Hazeldine maintains a reasonable level of tension and intrigue throughout.

Q.8. 6.5/10 (rounded up to 7 for IMDb)-it's entertaining despite its obvious flaws.
