I could remember a time when killers in films didn't require a whole lot of explaining, can you? (I suppose if you can milk a franchise, why not?) We didn't need a shitty prequel or sub par sequel or even a we-are-guaranteed-to-make-profit-just-look-at-the-title remake/reboot explaining how somebody stole their box of Crayolas in kindergarten.

Ja jatketaan...
Tämä oli sellaista huutoa, että voihan vitulla saatana. Kolme tyyppiä jää pakkasyönä jumiin pankkiautomaattirakennukseen, jota terrorisoi mysitinen huppumies. Elokuva sai minut voimaan pahoin, koska sen ihmiset olivat vammaisempia kuin vammaiset. Heillä mm. oli monta kertaa mahdollisuus paeta rakennuksesta. Lisäksi heillä oli vaatteet päällä ja silti jokainen heistä sai ainakin kerran jonkun kohtauksen, koska ulkona oli vitun kylmä, n. -20C."

Sure, generally viewers do not mind a few minutes of back story, but nothing of significance that hinders the film. (Rob Zombie's Halloween, although a good film, is a recent example of this, in my opinion anyway.) Anyways, now that my mini-rant is out of the way, I present, ATM. (No, sadly it isn't a porno.) ATM is one of those films that could have had based on a true story all over the box, and might have been believable. (I say that loosely, but ” read more

Surprisingly, I enjoyed this film.
It was different and very creepy! It had some predictable parts but overall I enjoyed it!

Mystinen huppumies piinaa pankkiautomaatilla.
Ennalta-arvattavuudesta ja tarinan aukoista huolimatta tarjoilee muutamia jännäkakka -efektejä.

This looked so amazing that my dissapointment was doubly brutal. Don't get me wrong, this is a fun movie, but there was so much more that could have been done. Sequel anyone? At least the characters are genuinely loveable and Alice Eve is excellent eye candy."

This movie would have been much creepier if I lived in a city that actually had ATM machines inside little glass buildings.
Anyways, for a confined location movie it was nothing ground breaking. And they definitely stretched out a 10 minutes conflict into a 90 minute movie.
Also, the "solutions" that the characters came up with made me laugh.
However, the ending did surprise me, and I love unexpected endings, so I'll give it that. Also, the acting was okay, not awful lik"

Thoughts: The main characters are surprisingly amusing in 'ATM', a horror-thriller with virtually nothing new to bring to the table, albeit an interesting main premise. Going back to the character aspect, they bring the movie to an at least 'Watchable' level. Their acting could use some work, but for the most part, they entertain to a certain extent. Most of the flick is predictable from miles away, but it worked as a merely 'OK' time-passer. I would probably not"
