At its best, it’s self-aware in a way that’s reminiscent of the ‘90s slasher renaissance in films like “Scream” and “I Know What You Did Last Summer.” Read full review

It’s not the worst movie in that Poe-Christie “kill off characters, one by one” formula. The players do well by their moments of terror or sadistic cruelty. But it’s entirely too obvious to come off, entirely too cluttered to have a character or characters rope us in, and entirely too chatty-jokey to ever be scary. And it’s not funny enough to work as a sick comedy. Read full review

Melding “Saw” with “The Hunger Games,” Triggered wins no points for originality or distinctiveness, not least of its cookie-cutter characters. But its relentlessness, and the gusto with which it embraces its mandate to make a mess, is tough to resist. Read full review

Once the outlandish premise is established, there's little to enjoy in the increasing body count, leading you to wish that Mr. Peterson had simply murdered his victims in their sleep. That at least would have made for a blessedly shorter movie. Read full review

Once you get past the faux-provocation of the film’s title, it’s difficult to tell what ideologies the filmmakers are trying to skewer. Read full review

The premise of the movie is quite simple: a group of school friends end up camping in a wood, they're mostly couples and have their own distinctive personalities and dramas.

Then they wake up to find bomb vests trapped to them with a countdown, and it descends into an amusing horror-comedy with plenty of gore as they commence a survival slaughter of one another.

Provided you don't want a movie which is realistic or subtle, this is quite an entertaining way to pass a couple of hours. I enjoyed it and would watch it again, it's no master piece but the acting and production is generally solid enough to earn is a middle of the road 5 stars.… Expand
