I was skeptical about this movie. I really didn't wanted to check this out but I did anyways and boyoboy how glad am I. This movie is about a mother and stepson duo who are in a remote mansion(of course! In every home invasion movie there's a remote mansion). But then a trio of murder arrive and the movie starts out. I love such movies. From The Strangers and recent Berkshire County, I loved all of these and this one is on that list too. The acting is great for all I know and the kid is not annoying (wow!). So if you want to watch something and pass time,then watch this. But it's my humble request that please don't be too critical while watching this. Overall, Story: 5/10, it has been done before. Cast: 6/10 Thrill factor: 6.5/10 so the movie gets 7/10.
Not a great film by any means. But it does what it does well. There are some holes in the plot. The plot itself is predictable and a little ridiculous. But if, like us, you were looking for some diversion on a nasty November night, it kept us entertained and awake. This is a Canadian film. It was shot in British Columbia. And although they don't specifically set it in Canada, they also do not Americanize and bastardize a Canadian city as so many of these films do. We have to sell our films but we should draw the line at selling our identity. Many Canadian filmmakers don't understand that The bad guys are really bad. The kid is a brat. And they never tell us the whos and whys behind the home invasion. The acting and the camera work are very good. Good stuff if you have have a rainy evening to kill.
"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.

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.
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.
