La follia bussa alla porta

The acting and production makes Hostage House feel like a Lifetime Original Movie. Netflix must really be trying to save money by buying up cheap amateur productions.

Horrible acting! Netflix is scraping the bottom of the barrel. Wow this was really bad.

Definitely a straight to TV film- not all are bad. This one was better than some. However, the acting was a bit rubbish, the female bad guy was just awful. The decisions made throughout the film were stupid, and the reactions were just as bad. Still, I watched to the end.

And not in a good way, the acting was bad the decisions they make are terrible, its like the crew have told the actors/actresses to act like the dumbest criminals and victims on planet earth. If they broke into my house id end up laughing at them the whole time and id ask them to come back to do it again sometime.

I give it a very reasonable 2 and thats because the female criminal makes for good eye candy if nothing else.

It has a very lifetime feel to it which isn't always a bad thing but this movie is slow, predictable and feels like it has been done 1000 times before and it has been done way better.

The acting wasn't horrible but it's definitely a bunch of B or even C list actors at best. There is no build up to things, it's just consistently slow. The bad guys don't seem bad or scary, the family are dull and their background story is just so run of the mill.

Overall it's something that you can just throw on for background noise vs actually sitting and paying attention to because the movie itself is not very entertaining. I gave it three stars because it's not the worst movie you will ever watch but you could definitely skip it and not have missed a thing!
