Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
The movie Room runs for two hours, which may feel lengthy initially. However, it's truly captivating and holds your attention throughout as it's semi-narrated in a child's view of the world only he knows.

Room is essentially split into two parts: Life inside a confined space and life post-Room.

In the movie, We witness a mother and her 5-year-old son living in a cramped setting resembling a prison cell. Their Room has merely just enough of the essentials to live a basic life like a bed, sink, kitchen, toilet, shower, and wardrobe.

Initially, the mother strives to keep her son happy with the living conditions, appearing to succeed in her efforts. As the story continues to unfold, a steel door can be noticed that raises questions about Room. It isn't until around 10 to 20 minutes into the movie that hints emerge regarding why they are trapped where they are. It takes some time before the complete narrative unfolds, and when it does, your heart just drops.

The second half of the movie delves into rebuilding their lives post-Room.

If you enjoy heartfelt films, with well-developed characters. "Room" is a must-see.
