Fermats Room - 4/1/10 DVD

A Spanish thriller with echoes of both "Pi" and "Cube".

A group of mathematicians find themselves invited to a mysterious conference where they find themselves locked in a room where the walls are, literally, closing in on them. To stop the walls from crushing them they must solve a series of riddles being sent to them via text.

This wasn't a film that received a lot of attention on its release but it's a cute thriller with strong performances from all of the cast and the director makes a good job of cranking up the tension as the walls draw ever closer on the boffins in the box.
