This is the first time I feel compelled to review a film I haven't even finished watching, but with this one I have to. I simply cannot watch any more without sharing my annoyance of the characters and a couple of 'long scenes'.
Well here is the spoiler so far, until 30min in: Woman moves away from trouble into a cabin. Lots of bad men around. One tries to con his way in, wearing a skeleton mask. Wow. He gets in anyway. Then the incredibly stupid decisions happen. I can't even be bothered to write them all out, needless to say that if you hit a dangerous intruder on the head and he is out, you don't leave the house as the mother, to get help and leave the guy on the floor with all the kids and leave him there untied, or really, really knocked out, you know, extremely!
And then, as if the character knows just how little the perpetrator is knocked out, she tiptoes around him, she knows he could wake up from her foot steps alone...yeah, guess what?
At that moment I gave up. Who wrote this? A 12 year old?
Oh and the other thing is the 'long scenes'. They are scenes, right, that are veeeeery loooong, unnecessarily so. I guess the director wanted to convey some sort of emotion with them, but what they really did was made me fast forward.
I will now continue this film with the knowledge I feel needed sharing. The fact that I am giving it another chance should help in some way to tell you it wasn't all THAT bad...but I don't think it will go over 3/10.
