Featured reviews
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.

Well-directed and acted. Pacing was good and the tension was maintained, except for a bit somewhere in the middle.
Only bugbear is that home security's role wasn't significant enough. I expected Mike to be the eyes and ears for Chloe, literally guiding her through the escape (this idea was done excellently in the film See For Me). However, it turns out that his involvement throughout was mostly patchy and lacked coherence. Nice idea at the end though.

I very much enjoyed this movie and think people need to give it a chance. It's about caring also not just terror. Jason Patric is great in his role and shows the length a person would go to save another. Yes some of the scenes are repetitive, but in that situation for real that's exactly what would happen even without someone walking you through it. I feel this movie is not a waste of time to watch and fact is home invasions do happen all the time. This film was realistic and not overdone and fake. Everyone has their own opinions,this just happens to be mine.Take 85 minutes and give this movie a try. It was entertaining and definitely worth the time. I am glad I stumbled upon it
Definitely worth a watch but it was hard to root for any of the main characters. My jaw dropped several times at the stupid decisions they made along with the criminals. The end very disappointing and anticlimactic. Pretty cliche premise but I think the execution was good enough to still be enjoyable.
"Home Invasion" is a Crime - Drama movie in which we watch three intruders breaking into a house to steal something from a safe while a mother with her son are trapped inside and they are trying to stay safe.
I have to admit that I did not expect much from this movie and I was not disappointed after watching it. It was just another average crime movie which was consisted of very few good scenes, a simple but boring plot and some very poor interpretations made by its cast. The direction which was made by David Tennant was below average and I believe that he did not reach his potential despite the simple plot of the movie. Finally, I have to say that I do not recommend anyone to watch this movie and if you want to watch a far better version of this movie just watch the movie "Panic Room" of 2002.
