“Room” is an emotionally charged experience that will leave you thunderstruck and wanting to stay in your seat for a second viewing. The first half of “Room,” based on the best-seller by Emma Donoghue, is a claustrophobe’s nightmare. It also is a deeply moving movie that looks at the infinite and boundless love between a protective mother and son trapped in a hellish situation. Ma (Brie Larson) has been kept by Old Nick, who kidnapped her seven years earlier, in a 10-foot square shed. During that time, he continually raped her, and Ma gave birth to a son, Jack (Jacob Tremblay), who is now 5 years old.
