Breaking & Exiting

Already at the beginning of the movie I thought, No, I don't like people who break into homes, this is not my kind of movie. But... separate myself from my feeling about burglars, the movies, the cast did a really good job! The story, without giving anything away, drew me in, I felt for the characters, I could understand how it could happen, if someone is not a bad person deep down and would really like to do the right thing, while the other is a bit of an attention seeking nut case. One thing was the number plate, I expected more to happen about that... I think it is entertaining and funny enough to watch and Milo played his part well. Someday he may be as good or as popular as his Dad, even if there is no Mad Max.

Though Harry (Milo Gibson) isn't easy to sympathize with in the beginning, stick with the movie, because Daisy (Jordan Hinson) brings out the best in him.

Despite the unconventional premise and the sometimes too-light take on a serous topic, there's something compelling about the bond between the characters that kept me invested until the end.

The odd pair up proves there's someone for everyone, and Breaking and Exiting delivered an unexpectedly sweet romance with a twist or two.

Lil Gibson takes after his father, and that's not a bad thing. The "crazy" schtick was one I always enjoyed from Mel Gibson - in movies and in real life! His son has the same characteristics, and I have no problem with that since I always loved Mel Gibson. Milo is very entertaining and coming into his own. But, Jordan Hinson really carried a good part of this film. The fact that this turns into a love story was perfect, albeit expected. Milo and Jordan had great quarky chemistry and the movie worked, and was fun to watch. I'm looking forward to seeing more movies from both of them. Great work!!!

The house is beautiful to look at, but the story is just too unlikely for me to enjoy it. The decisions of the characters just don't make any sense.

A guy goes to rob a house and becomes reluctantly embroiled in a young woman's suicide attempt. Finding the conscious he has been missing so far in his life he returns to help her.

There are so many reasons why I should hate this film. I actually can't understand how I enjoyed it as much as I did.

First off there is hardly any plot. This is just a pair of beautiful losers hanging out for a day, talking laughing and fighting. Yet I found it compelling viewing.

In my reviews of "Ocean's 8" and "Focus" I was very quick to wail on the main characters on account of them being scumbag criminals -both leads played by possibly the most two charismatic actors alive. Inexplicably that is not an issue here. I was really invested in what they are up to and I wanted them to turn their lives around. I guess that is this "chemistry" thing people are always banging on about.

If you want excitement or clever plot twists or nudity or pretty much anything outside of a rather standard romance then steer well clear of this. Saying that I really enjoyed this, take a gamble put it on in the background and see if it drags you in.
