Tower Block (2012 James Nunn, Ronnie Thompson)

Assault on Precinct 13 I started thinking, down to the suitably synthy seventies score; though Q later corrected me to an older source - And Then There Were None. Also I kept getting flashes of Towering Inferno and Poseiden Adventure in largely successful independent, low budget production, scripted by James Moran (from BBC TV).

I like that Sheridan Smith supports these indie films, and she's credible as our gutsy heroine. I did think the kid's gaming prowess might come in useful later on but alas he was one of the ten. With a typically characteristic performance by Jack O'Connell, plus Ralph Brown, Russell Tovey, Julie Graham.
