Not to be confused with Devil ("A group of people are trapped in an elevator and the Devil is mysteriously amongst them"), this is one tired movie.
The two movies share so much - a plot, an elevator that's glacier slow, and a cast devoid of star material. I can just see them lining up to play someone stuck in an elevator for ninety minutes.
What the audience knows, but the elevator riders are blissfully unaware of, is that there's a bomb onboard. One of the riders is carrying a bomb intended for the party they're all going to on the top floor of the hotel.
Which makes the glitch in the elevator that's holding them on the 47th floor really inconvenient.
I suppose they did the best they could with the limited script and the narrow possibilities in an elevator, but in the end it was just too much, or too little.
