Intrusion

Intrusion

I went into this film optimistic, excited even. Well Lo & Behold was I in for one joyless bad-acting ride. I'll make it quick unlike the directors who put us through 1hr33 minutes of a waste of time diabolic script, and on top of it slow paced. Frida Pinto should give up acting like yesterday. Logan however played his part very well, plus he's eye candy and quite frankly the only reason I sat through this disaster. The movie didn't know whether it's coming or going. Absolute trash.

Longer Review: You will become increasingly agitated at every choice the female lead chooses to make. A movie that could have ended in 20 minutes if the writer had provided the character with any survival instincts or common sense. Call the cops? No. Pick up that weapon, kitchen knife, or anything at all to defend oneself? No. Save yourself the frustration and skip this.

I got the creeper vibe instantly from the husband. You could tell something was sketchy about him right off the bat. Good actor. I remember him from The Invitation. The story was fairly predictable but I definitely didn't expect him to have the girl tied up in a hidden basement. I can understand why some people don't like this film. But a 1 star rating? Lol come on, it wasn't that bad.

I admit I have been giving some negative reviews recently but it's not intentional. I'm not gaining anything out of them. The only reason is they are really bad movies. For example this one's plot is full of holes and unreasonable actions and reactions which is truly disturbing making you think they take viewers as fools. I understand making a movie isn't an easy task but I wish they would be more serious and logical if they're making a thriller drama based on reality.

Is beyond my imagination how Netflix can make money and have a bunch of idiots paying membership for the trash they dish out. Hope they go bankrupt soon.

This film start with a woman "Meera" jogging, and she back to her house showering scene! As turnout, this film is about Meera need to save a woman "Christine" from the abduction of her husband "Henry"! Entire film full of boring conversation, and annoying overuse scene! Such as, overuse of the walking scene, overuse of the searching scene, overuse of the staring scene, overuse of the slow motion scene, overuse of the arguing scene, overuse of the calling names scene, overuse of the watching video scene, overuse of the sleeping scene, overuse of the driving scene, overuse of the eating scene, overuse of the talking on the phone scene, overuse of the song playing at the background scene, overuse of the shouting scene, overuse of the texting scene, and overuse of the changing camera angle scene! Make the film unwatchable! At the end, Meera saved Christine! Meera moving away from her house at the very end! That's it! Wasting time to watch!

I did not realize this was a Netflix production, although God knows some of their movies have been dreadful. I actually thought it was one of those independent films that went straight to video. Intrusion had the look - I wish I could describe it - kind of antiseptic, where you suspect the house on the hill was placed there by a computer. A married couple, Meera and Henry Parsons (Frieda Pinto. Logan Marshall-Green, have moved from Boston to a small community I think in New Mexico, where they have built a large, beautiful home. It is in the middle of absolutely nowhere - we're talking desert. They have no alarm system. They have a generator outside that anyone can get to. After a break-in while the couple is out, the cops are called. The burglars didn't take much. Henry then gets an alarm and tracking devices for their phones. The next time the burglars enter the house, it's in the middle of the night when Henry and Meera are home asleep. Meera then finds out that Henry is hiding a gun in a plant, and he shoots all three people. Two die right away, one later. The police are concerned because the criminals have the last name of Cobb, and their sister has been missing for some time. They think the brothers are somehow involved. Meera starts snooping around, using the GPS in her husband's car, which leads her surprisingly to the Cobb's residence. There she breaks into their house and looks at their mail before she's caught and escorted out. It really takes some nerve to wander into someone's home, open their mailbox, and look around like you have all the time in the world. I won't go into the rest of the movie - it was a joke. I have seen maybe 6,000 movies in my life - maybe more. I've never seen anything as stupid as this. Maybe I have, but I blocked it out. Awful acting, awful dialogue, slow-moving. Flat atmosphere, awkward pauses. A mess. I was told that screenwriters, producers, etc., can't get an appointment to see anyone at Netflix even if they have a relative in an executive office. I also read it took ten years to get Queen's Gambit on the air. It's obvious Netflix has a need for product. It's a popular streaming service and they are behind many great shows. It would seem to me Netflix would seek out originality and excellence, whether it came from someone who knew the secret handshake or not. This film is an appalling insult.

Why are people always looking for something fresh and original? Ok, so it's not an Oscar winner but it's a decent thriller. So what if it's predictable? So what if it's been done before? Not every movie can be the next big thing. With the amount of crapy movies out there (and I mean real crap) it's just not that bad! Definitely doesn't deserve such low ratings! I enjoyed it. It was fine. Decent acting, good pace and an interesting (even if predictable) storyline. Yes, it's been done before but so what? If you're looking for the next big thing, don't watch it but if you want to kill an hour and a half and watch a decent thriller, give it a try.

Like music, every note that exists has been played million times over just moved or mixed around. Movies fall into that also.. can always connect a link or similarity to something else.. doesn't mean it;s bad.. have seen worse with big budgets.. critics here want to be the 1st brainiac to spoil or micro manage every thing in a movie. Almost like it's the're job to chase u away from the movie with the're brilliant synopsis of been there/done that.. the worst review I can give a movie is I would not watch it again down the road.. once is enough but i will watch something i never saw regardless of the brilliant R. Eberts here.
