How did this come out in a theater? How? This “straight to Hulu” offering will make any normal human cringe with frustration, anger, or some other negative emotion you might have on hand. Of course, there’s a good chance you won’t have any hanging around after having abandoned it early on. Trust starts poorly and gets worse all the time. And when you just cannot believe how the film could get any stupider, Katey Sagal shows up to prove otherwise.
Lauren Lane (Sophie Turner) is a Hollywood star undergoing a scandal. She is pregnant, a fact that has become public against her wishes. This hurts her in several ways, not the least of which is she refuses to name the father which allows the tabloids free reign to speculate. Oh, and the grown-up child star is currently playing a teenager on a family sitcom. Except that Sophie Turner will likely be 30 by the time you read this and, well, she looks 30.
Needing isolation and downtime, Lauren rents a mansion to go live alone with her dog indefinitely. Unfortunately for the Hollywood star, the mansion has a perv cam and the guy spying on her is an incompetent thief tied to two even more incompetent thieves. And one night, all three decide to visit Lauren. This ends with all three morons getting shot by their one collective gun and Lauren locking herself in the boiler room, a fate from which she literally can’t escape.
You see, one of the morons pulled the handle out of its socket and then Lauren did the same on her side … and despite a handleless door, she still couldn’t figure out how to open it.
Oh, it gets better. While trapped, Lauren discovers two separate industrial-strength tools. Despite a modicum of drywall and wood, Laurn still cannot seem to exit the rather spacious and weirdly clean boiler room. This movie is like watching a bad mime who can’t get out of the box he’s pretending to be in. And THEN, Katey Sagal becomes the intuitive one in the film. :SMH:
The tragedy is the imprisoned scenario just doesn’t work here. I feel like our star put no genuine 
effort into considering how to exit the room where she’s stuck. Personally, I thought of ten different things she didn’t try. And I hate to say it, but this is a worse version of Inside, a film in which Willem Dafoe is trapped in an apartment. It is an unforgivable sin to make me wish I were watching a Willem Dafoe movie instead.
Trust is the kind of film that makes you feel stupid for having watched it. Sophie Turner may well be a burgeoning star, but you’d never know it from this film. I gotta believe this is going to hurt her stock, and one wonders how many more chances she’ll get to be a leading lady. I’d expect small children to have left this boiler room long before Ms. Lane finds her inner superwoman. From what I can tell, it never happened, and then the film got even worse.
There once a starlet, Lauren Lane
Bad publicity gave her such pain
So she rented a flat
Got trapped like a rat
As her “solutions” drove me well past “sane”
