Aroview: Four top mathematicians must solve a complex riddle in order to avoid being crushed to death by a shrinking room in this claustrophobic Spanish mystery.
Edited, scored and shot for optimal suspense, this tightly orchestrated teaser lets the logic wander a few times, but is otherwise an absorbing addition to the ‘mathematical mystery’ genre, tantalising with twists to the very end.

3 stars (Good Enough) A reasonably entertaining clever-dicky play with maths and numbers that manages to tweak its tail for an imaginative ending when one knows the protagonists will not be crushed. (bring on the brave film where they are!) ~rakau
4 stars (Very Good) A very clever movie with plenty of twists and turns that will leave you guessing until the end. ~Anon
3 stars (Good Enough) 3/5 - Original title: "La habitación de Fermat" - enjoy the puzzle solvings, the surprises, but don't be put off by the poor special effects. ~Anonz
