Backrooms: every character holds the idiot ball with both hands and a strap.

Backrooms is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Backrooms?
Just got out of Backrooms and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Unpopular opinion: Backrooms is the most overrated film of the decade
Director clearly thought Backrooms was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.

Hot Take: Backrooms's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Look, I wanted to love Backrooms. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
