Did You Know?

The true event that the movie is based on happened in Georgia, where this film is made and filmmakers are from. 4 friends were in the sauna, one left for the toilet, locking his friends in - exactly as it is shown in the movie. He never came back, and when he woke up he didn't remember that he left them in the sauna, and started to search for them elsewhere. Fortunately no one died since they managed to turn the heater off, but they had to spend over 10 hours in the decreasing heat, until they were found.See more »

Factual errors: At the start the friends share a drink of Mead, a popular drink among pagans, which is Wine made from honey rather than from grapes, however they incorrectly refer to it as moonshine, which is home-made Whiskey with concentrations above 50% alcohol by volume.See more »

Ian :I don't know. There's something about her. Something about her I like.
Michael :I think the thing you like about her is that she was half-naked.

Went out of steam pretty quick. . 27 November 2016

I must admit that I had no idea what this movie was about, as I hadn't even read the synopsis of the movie, nor did I have any prior knowledge about the movie. But still, it appeared to be a horror movie, so I took a chance and sat down to watch it.

Right, and now that I have, I have to ask myself one question; why? This movie was so weak in plot that it had more holes than a Schweiz cheese. I mean, a group of people in a cabin somewhere get stuck in a sauna that gradually increase in temperature. Sure. Why not?

The storyline in "247°F" was so simplistic that it was almost an insult to the audience. And it offers nothing, absolutely nothing, to challenge the intellect of the viewers in any possible way. This is simply just disable your brain, lean back and watch the movie. But don't expect to be blown away, because "247°F" will not do so in any manner.

As for the acting in the movie, well I will say that people were doing adequate jobs with the limitations of the script and the storyline. However, the characters were awfully genetic and mundane.

For a horror / thriller then "247°F" was just as generic as they come, and it offered very little in terms of entertainment or in terms of being innovative in the genre. There is nothing new to be seen here actually.

If you enjoy a good horror movie, then do yourself a favor and spend your time, money and effort on something else, because "247°F" is hardly worth the effort.
