Breakout

Oh dear, where to begin. Sadly, Brendan Fraser might be many things, but a 'Bruce Willis' he will never be. What we have here - loosely - is 'Die Hard in the woods.' The former 'George of the Jungle' (aka Mr Fraser) has only gone and got himself locked up for protecting trees (perhaps he should have lived on Pandora?) and thus has found himself separated from his (not so loving) family. Then, if that wasn't bad enough, they only go on a camping trip and witness a murder! Cue Brendan Fraser deciding that that was the time he better break out of prison and save them. Because - and let's face it - no one knows those woods better than an eco-activist who's dedicated his life to protecting them.

So, if you think that sounds any way enjoyable or believable, go ahead and watch it. You may be surprised. However, for me, it was just one unbelievable coincidence after the next. I'm all far 'suspending your disbelief' while watching a film, but this is taking it too far.

If you like the idea of 'Die Hard in the woods' try a little-known film called 'Predator.' It was kind of cool. This, however, is not. End of. Sorry Brendan... but you're better off sticking to watching out for trees rather than protecting them!

I think the storyline of the movie was decent, but there were so many mistakes it's impossible to list them all. To name a few: they were not smart with the windows. You can see cameramen in the cabin windows toward the end of the scene in the cabin. There are also LOTS of missed opportunities - one being that the good guy leaves a rifle with the bad guy after fighting with him. The guns seem to have endless ammo, they run instead of utilizing vehicles, and they seem to all be able to find each other in the woods remarkably well - too well.

I'm giving it a 5 out of 10, because it's decent enough. Just don't watch it if you're one to really pick movies apart. You won't enjoy it.

From the beginning, movie made no sense. There was no connection from the flashback introduction to the main story, chasing kids in the woods, running in circles (really they seemed to run in circles for 3 days) to try to get away and too many holes to fill in the movie. (why were the 2 brothers running to Canada?)

All in all, this movie falls into the category of "2 hours I'll never get back again."

Stupid goofs and situations, there are too many to list. This is a good example of an extreme waste of production funds. Since the director wrote it he clearly was blind to the numerous mistakes and nonsense situations. The bad guy is the worst shot on the planet. And the good guy kept shooting at a distant target with a sawed off shotgun. The topper was when the good guy fights with the bad guy and does not take his rifle from him and then runs away to continue the chase. I think the actors are not to blame as much as the director and writer. I think if the people responsible for this movie every want to work again they are going to have to change their names.

Good day fellow movie goers...I literally just got done watching this movie. I will admit that I was a bit Leary of this particular movie because of others reviews and comments about it on here....surprisingly, I found it to be a clean good movie. I would definitely recommend it. Its nice to find a movie that does not have sex and nudity in it. This movie kept my interest throughout it. Its also nice because every other word is not a curse word. I am sure there are others out there who are looking for the same. So if you are looking for a good clean suspense-thriller movie, I would recommend watching this one. Enjoy!!
