Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Give the movie a little credit for coming up with the idea of an ancient monster. And the design of the game is terrific. But this is just Jumanji with gore effects and topless scenes.

rotten:
Pacing remains flat, exacerbated by bad dialogue, some subpar f/x and variable perfs.

rotten:
There's relief in this type of poorly acted claptrap's adherence to movie mathematics, since each slain character is a sign that the movie is that much closer to a credit roll.

These waters are gory and sexually suggestive, and they overfloweth with unoriginality.

rotten:
Watching people play a board game ain't ever going to be scary, and that's essentially what we have here -- after a laughably amateurish intro set in the 1920s, when the dice and cards are unearthed (in Turkey).
