The Review: Dave Made A Maze



Dave Made A Maze 5/10

If I was doing this review based on how a film looked this would be a 10/10. Dave Made A Maze is a movie I heard about a few years back from a coworker who worked on it but could only find it on iTunes which means that I did not see it. I watched it today on Kanopy. After watching this I just kept thinking about how good it looked and not the story and that is something I usually attach to crazy action movies. This is about a guy named Dave whose girlfriend arrives after a weekend to find him inside of a cardboard maze he has built and is trapped inside of. She offers to come inside and he says no because it is not finished. She calls his friend to come help who then invites a bunch of random people including an interviewer and his crew.


They all head inside and the maze is far larger than it should be. There are traps that kill people which causes yarn and confetti to spray out of them. There is a giant minotaur hunting them down. One woman gets possessed. It's crazy. Still I can't say that this was something I would watch again or really suggest to anyone other than to say that it looked great. And Dave got a cardboard hand by sticking it into a vajayjay shaped vortex. Watch this on Kanopy if you want. Even the reviews I watched just talk about how the cardboard was attained for filming and all the practical effects. This wasn't even ninety minutes long but somehow felt two hours. It was weird.
