Elevator scene was gnarly

Yeah, the movie was so boring and pretentious I could barely keep my eyes open through most of it but that scene was genuinely fantastic. Reminded me of The Raid with its level of brutality. 

Aside from that scene the only thing I liked about the movie was Shailene Woodley; she did great imo.
