The only way to plausibly believe that this movie could have happened is to assume everyone in the elevator and all of the emergency services are complete idiots. It took too long to contact the elevator mechanic on the intercom. When they did, the person responded in such an odd way that I assumed that someone intercepted all communications. Turns out the guys just an a-hole? They started panicking, bonding, and a girl peed in her purse within 10-15 minutes of being stuck, according to the characters. When they eventually call 911, 911 dismisses them for no reason and never shows up? A guy sticks his head out a tiny gap in the elevator to press the outside button? No one considers throwing the body or bomb out until the last few minutes? And even after all of the cutting is done, the last guy ends up dying because.....he's too fat to be saved?
On top of that, everyone's cartoonish. Unrealistic depictions of racism, revenge, and corporate greed. It was seemingly inspired by M. Night's low-budget film, but the difference is the actors in that movie could actually act, for the most part, and the scenarios weren't completely unrealistic, which is funny considering that one was a supernatural film.
