Panic Button 2011

Four stereotypes board a private jet thinking they have won a 'social network' competition. in order to win prizes they have to complete secret tasks given to them in the plane toilet. alas they have really been tricked by a psycho onto 'the plane of death' . each person has had a relative kidnapped and unless they kill the other people on the plane their daughter/sister/brother/friend will get cut up/set on fire/ hung / etc. so mistrust takes over and someone gets an axe out. this carries on in a quality but slightly silly way.  it tries to take in the whole cyber bullying aspect but really just wants to stab someone in the face with a bottle. theres a couple of nice twists towards the end and the final scene is pretty damn dark when you give it a ponder.

BLOOD/VIOLENCE - 2/5 - odd bloody bit but it doesnt linger
SEX/NUDITY - 2/5 - a desperate seduction attempt that goes nowhere
SCARES - 2/5 - better build up than pay off

FILM - 2/5 - worth a watch, but only once
