Meander (2020) Movie Review

Meander (2020) IMDB Prime

Meander movie poster

Meander is a French sci-fi film from 2020 directed by Mathieu Turi. The film starts with a woman laying in the road who needs to move out of the way of an oncoming car. The woman ends up accepting a ride in the car with a man and they begin a conversation. Things go south (no spoiler) and the woman ends up passing out. She wakes in a strange, small room with a device attached to her wrist and dressed in techy full body suit.

The majority of the movie becomes a series of obstacles that she must overcome to escape the maze of tunnels she is stuck in. Walls are moving, countdowns are happening, water is flooding, tunnels are heating up, etc. It is a 1 person version of The Cube but in happening tunnels. Add in a strange creature (possibly an alien?), and some flashbacks of her life and we get a science fiction movie.

Through trial and error we get a woman trying to solve the maze, using clues others have left for her to find the exit. Does she?

Interesting movie, but a but too weird for me. 4.8 / 10
