Breaking In

This is nothing new. Been done 100 times. Not bad...but just...nothing i haven't seen before. Cheesy yet watchable. But...

Home invasions are nothing new. This sets our protagonist outside the house though, which is not common. The movie itself tries to keep it as real as possible, but sometimes seems uneven when it comes to character behaviour. Then again if they behave just like a one way street it seems to easy to paper thin. So while this overall may seem flawed (I'd argue it is), it still has some nice moments to it.

Suspend your disbelief and let yourself emerge and just feel what the characters go through. The good ones that is. If you do that, you can be entertained to a degree. So while uncommon on one side, not really anything new overall.

Decent one time watch, at parts can be boring nothing to shout about

I was really hoping for a good movie, but it was the typical home invasion type of movie, and as always, the intruders were not the brightest.

I wouldn't say it's a terrible movie, as there are some good moments to it, but sadly also a lot of bad.

One thing i noticed the most about it, is, Ajiona Alexus (Jasmine), almost the only line she had through out the movie (Which was a lot, i totally lost count) was how many times she kept saying "Mom", i've never seen anything so simple before, and boring at the same time...

Sadly i think it could have been a good movie, it was just a very predictable experience, and i've seen so many of these home invasion movies, and this one was just like 99% of the others!

I couldn't give myself to give it a 5 / 10 stars, but i was mildly entertained at points.

Would i recommend it? Well that sure depends on your taste, doesn't it? If you like most other home invasion movies, with a house that has a crazy security system, total surveillance, hidden safe, then yeah, go for it, then i'm sure you will like this one too... But, if you've already seen a ton of such movies, then this one will probably not be anythiing that will give you any surprises.

Even though this movie was predictable, because there are a million movies with the story line of a desperate mother willing to go great lengths for her children, I really liked it. It had a lot of action throughout the entire movie. So it kept my attention!
