Welcome Home

I have seen worse and I have seen better it was sort of bland I expected it to be exactly what it was acting was pretty good.

Nice Italian home and landscape.

Although Aaron Paul has mainly been disappointing after Breaking Bad, and Emily Ratajkowski is not what I would call a good actress, their performances were not the main issue that left me disappointed with Welcome Home.

Indeed, Aaron, and to a lesser extent Emily, were more than satisfactory, but as my title states, the writing and directing were atrocious. They took too much time trying to build tension which never materializes and forgot to actually write an interesting script.

Not recommended unless you really like Emily Ratajkowski and want to get a "closer" look.

Welcome Home is such a smart yet scary idea. A well written script and story provides a horrific take on air b&b. It is well acted by all the leads, and as a viewer you will be on the edge of your seat and feeling tension the whole time. The film also calls into question our privacy and who may just be watching us unbeknownst to us in this day and age. It takes place and was filmed in Italy and the setting is both beautiful with the views and landscapes yet scary with the feeling of isolation of being far from home.

I almost did not watch after reading the reviews but loved Aaron Paul in Breaking bad so decided to give it a try. Boy are you amateur reviewers harsh, the acting was believable, maybe not award-winning but not painful as suggested. The actress was good and she grew on me, I thought she was better than Paul. Ricardo was great at being creepily menacing. The house and shots of Italy were beautiful and the ending was cool!

Twenty minutes in I thought we were in for a slick, stylish, twisted thriller, sadly by the end of the movie, all I kept thinking was what if, it felt like a mass of wasted opportunities.

The couple, were rather poor I thought, I'm a huge fan of Aaron Paul, but he was very bad in this, partly due to the shocking script he was having to deal with.

On the plus side, the location was stunning, and as always the smouldering Riccardo Scamarcio is terrific, perhaps the only saving grace in what is essentially a poor movie.

The premise is good, sadly the execution, and simplicity are poor. 5/10
