One room. Four genius minds. The greatest enigma will be how to survive. Fermat s Room (La habitación de Fermat) is a stunning Spanish thriller, winner of numerous festival awards. The film stars two of Spain s best known actors; Santi Millán (Idiot Love) and Lluis Homar (Almodóvar s Bad Education and Broken Embraces) as well as the ever popular Federico Luppi (Pan s Labyrinth), Alejo Sauras, and Elena Ballesteros. Four strangers, who are all mathematicians, are invited to spend a weekend together where they will be challenged to solve a great enigma. Their mysterious host is only known to them by a pseudonym: Fermat. But the room in which they find themselves turns out to be a death-trap that will crush them if they do not discover in time what connects them all and why someone might wish to murder them. (official distributor synopsis)

No, no and no. I have a weak spot for similar films set in a enclosed space, but this one’s not good. You can’t take seriously a film where four genius mathematicians pretend to have trouble solving riddles that I knew already in middle school. There are moments when you can see hints that not even the film takes itself seriously, but I don’t believe it. The climax is so stupid and stupidly messy that it couldn’t work even on paper. A pity.
