Estranhos em Casa

Had a lot going for it and I was all in until a little less than 2/3 in when it changed gears, became increasingly implausible and full of plot holes, and went full-on super-violent gore-horror, which is just boring to me.

Disappointing. As usual, naked women all over the place but the guys keep every stitch on. Sure this wasn't made in Hollywood?

Been waiting for the 18 Rating to unfold. It didn't. At least for me. This was way too boring. Too,. There are much better 18+ flics to be found, even with Prime.

"Get In" has an interesting concept that appealed to me, which is based on a true story about a man dealing with squatters. It's much deeper than that, the movie touches on the concept of John Locke's theory of property, survival of fittest with sex and racial tensions being an underlying element to the entire plot.Other than that, Get in is best viewed going in knowing as little as possible.

The acting is pretty good and there is plenty of gore, at times violent especially in the second half of the film. The climax is very haunting and memorable, adrenaline-fueled ride which I can't imagine horror and thriller fans not enjoying.

The story does seem to overly rely on artsy horror movie tropes than I would have liked, also the set-up is not all that clever or original, in terms of scary, I can't say it was the most system shocking of the mix but it's all done so well that horror movie aficionados won't care. If you dig French Horror, Home invasions, and enjoyed films like Straw Dogs, Funny Games, then this is for you.

This is quite the story and it is even crazier if you think that in one way or the other, this actually happened. I did not check what was truthful from real life, but just the premise itself is quite ludicrous ... Well not for the owners of the house of course, but in general.

And just the fact that laws let this happen ... this is madness, but then again, we know laws sometimes do not help the innocent, escpecially if some take advantage of them. So there are cliches here and the characters do take steps most will expect, but this is still a thrilling ride and "adventure" and you really feel for them ... all their issues included!

Started off with a promising plot but ruined with a ridiculous ending with a bad guy who it appears could probably survive a direct nuclear hit. The acting was good enough. Gave it a five for the first half.
