lackadaisical search

Chloe (Natasha Henstridge) and her stepson Jacob live on an island community. They are being targeted by a group of masked invaders. She calls home security and gets Mike (Jason Patric).

There are occurrences that don't pass the smell test. They don't seem right even if they are not impossible. It should be the easiest thing for these armed intruders to find Chloe and take her captive. One of their first objective should be getting the situation under control. They seem almost lackadaisical in their search. It should be more compelling action for them to escape into the rain. I know filming in the rain really sucks but as it stands, this movie doesn't work. On top of that, the home security stuff also seems unlikely. The only part I truly like is the bridge. The rest is less than thrilling.

Keep the change ya filthy animal.......

When a wealthy woman and her stepson are targeted by a expert thieves in their remote mansion, her only form of help comes from a call with a security systems specialist, whom thirty years prior was a boy who may have been lost.

But as the intruders become increasingly hostile and the connection weakens, will she trust him to be her eyes and navigate her to avoid the criminals.....

I always thought home invasion films should be a lot of fun shouldn't they? Family goes on holiday, leaves a member and they scream when applying aftershaves and set booby traps.

Or they have Ethan Hawke in them with weird people with smiles and a sub context damning the American class.....

Well this is neither of those, it's just an atypical thriller along the lines of Trespass but without the subplot of having one of the criminals be a paranoid schizophrenic.

Instead you have the psychotic female who just wants to kill everyone and be done with it, you have the safecracker with the heart of gold, and then you have the against type Scott Adkins.

I think Adkins is brilliant in his suitable genre, kicking butt and harking back to those straight the video action movies that were released in the late eighties/early nineties, but here he's trying to pass as an intellectual mastermind because he wears a suit and speaks clear and concisely.........he doesn't convince.

So we are left with Jason Patric looking like he's had a particularly heavy night before, guiding Natasha Henstrige, looking like she's had a few particularly heavy meals around the house avoiding the criminals who spend the movie staying in the same room.

It's not particularly good, but it's not bothersome either. The cast, Akins aside play their respective parts well, and it throws in some funny clichés, such as a lightning bolt cutting out the power when they needed it the most.

Throw in the stupidest 'fool the criminal' ending, and you have another mundane thriller starring people who were a bit famous twenty years ago.

Watch Panic Room instead

HOME INVASION is a straight-to-video B-movie thriller that openly copies PANIC ROOM but comes across as far inferior to the David Fincher film. This one sees an ageing Natasha Henstridge playing a mother who is forced to take refuge her own home alongside her child when it is invaded by a bunch of criminals looking for loot. Her only ally is a security operator on the outside, played by a tired Jason Patric in one of those sitting-at-a-desk type roles. Truth be told, this is a typically cheap and overwrought production, with Henstridge failing to impress and the story piling on one cliche after another. I laughed out loud during some of the attempts at more serious moments. The one highlight is the presence of martial arts expert Scott Adkins in the cast, but sadly he's not enough to save the film - and he doesn't even get to fight.
