Escape Room: Tournament of Champions

2021

Six people unwittingly find themselves locked in another series of escape rooms, slowly uncovering what they have in common to survive... and discovering they've all played the games before.

Ages 16+Source checked

Why this age? Repeated life-threatening puzzles, deaths, horror tension, violence, and disturbing peril drive the film. The PG-13 rating supports teen access, but its sustained survival-horror intensity is better suited to older teens. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
