Home Invasion Review

Home Invasion

Watch the video review of the same HERE

Starring: Natasha Henstridge, Jason patric, Liam Dickinson, 

This movie is directed by David Tenant.

This is again one of those movies that went straight to video on demand. This is also the first time that I have seen Natasha after a long time in movies, if you were a kid growing up in 1990s you definitely would have seen species. She played a sexy Alien who killed everyone Seriously that movie is awesome but moving on…….

Home invasion is exactly as the name suggests its a home invasion movie. So three professional robbers break into chloe’s place and try to rob her. Chloe and her stepsoncontacts the security company and hides from the robbers.  Mike tries to guide her and escort both of them out of the house safely. Since this is a planned robbery mike has a difficult time guiding her through the house.

Ok so there is no huge plot in this movie and it is filled with cliché characters. Sometimes I felt that certain plot points were borrowed from other movies like Jason’s character reminded me of the “operator” from the Matrix Movies. “Get me out of here!!! I need an Exit”.

It has almost the same plot as Panic Room (which was a really cool home invasion movie) but initially this kid Liam Dickinson is really annoying than Kristen Stewart in Twilight!! See what I did there did you seehow I connected the movies ok!!

 In addition to that the plot never goes deeper than the home invasion scenario. The whole plot can easily be summarized in a single sentence. However it also has its positives, Natasha and Jason give a believable performance where it matters. You can clearly see that they are really trying to make this movie work. It does have some genuinely entertaining moments. Another thing I noticed while doing this review is that on IMDB’s movie page, Jason Patric is not credited as an actor. I also checked jason’s page and the movie is not mentioned there either so guys if you know the reason why its not there, let me know in the comments section below. 

The Ending is a little off,trust me this is not a spoiler but the Kid escapes, gets into a pickup truck and while escaping he hits one of the robbers (Kyra) and she instantly dies. The kid drives off!! That part made me laugh a little.  But other than that the movie is ok!! I wanted it to be more intense and layered.

I give this movie 6/10
