"Guilty pleasure" is pushing it, but you might develop a certain guilty appreciation for the way this slab of breezeblock Brit-schlock goes about its ludicrously contrived business.
July 10, 2013
It is an expertly crafted thriller with a mastery of tension-building techniques.
September 21, 2012
The ending is a letdown but this is still a very promising debut from directors James Nunn and Ronnie Thompson.
September 19, 2012
There are plenty of clichés, like lifts that don't work and a mysteriously disappearing phone signal. It's badly lit and rather grim, with far too many extreme close-ups.

Tower Block doesn't rise high enough to match its ambitions.

Though suspension of disbelief is a pre-requisite, [this] is a rather gripping thriller...

Thanks to the muddled plot motivations Tower Block really struggles in the final third.
September 20, 2012
It's not a bad idea for a movie, but what we get is undercooked, with poor logic and even poorer pacing conspiring to prevent any much-needed tension to build.

Contains some effective jolts and engaging characters. But after setting up the premise, it doesn't really have anywhere to go. Kind of like the characters themselves
September 19, 2012
Entertaining, well written thriller enlivened by strong performances from a superb cast and a decent amount of shocks, though it's slightly let down by a disappointing finale.
September 25, 2012
Gritty and claustrophobic, this British horror-thriller holds our interest with well-played characters rather than the wobbly plotting.
