Ratings and reviews

So I took YOURMOVIESUCKS advice to see this and it was frankly underwhelming. I went into it knowing that this was a commentary on the horror genre and did enjoy it but unfortunately, I found way too many inconsistencies such as the painfully awful "cell phone" trope and the characters transitions as the plot progressed. It still has a fantastic cast and was shot beautifully. I just felt that some ideas were better than others. I'd give it a light 6/10.

You can't effectively criticize violence in popular media if your "film" stars Tim Roth and Naomi Watts. The lack of forethought and/or integrity required to participate in a remake like this is incredible. Please, if you value artistic integrity or your own time, don't support this piece of work.

Ouick Review: Whoever Dislikes "The Purge" or "The Strangers" & If you love Home Invasion Films, Then This Movie is definitely made for you. Nothing seems perfect than Two Deranged and Disturbing Young Men Taking a Family Hostage and Betting Their Lives if They Live or not....But I would recommend renting it to see if you are satisfied with it and then buy it
