Crawlspace

Words fail me, but I am cold blooded, heartless machine of a woman. Shortest review ever- grab a bag of chips and prepare to giggle for all the wrong reasons. You have seen this movie before. I am glad to see Henry Thomas in some things recently. He has grown to an appropriate aged actor who isn't half bad in roles. I think Keven Bacon says you don't have to be a big movie star, but being a good, responsible actor who like a challenge and enjoys it- that's acting. The interaction between Thomas and goons is unintentionally hilarious. The goons are straight out of central casting:: tall, skinny guy with the brains and the dumpy one who is .. dumpy. But this is movie is a fun way waste a cold Saturday afternoon!

A pretty unremarkable film, but one that I did see through to the end.

Elliot from E. T is working in a crawl space under a wooden house. Up above him the bad guys are looking for some ill gotten loot.

It seems to have some unintentional slapstick to it, because I laughed a few times although probably for the wrong reasons!

Someone has compared it slightly to Home Alone, but I'd say Harry and Marv were intellectually smarter than the two inept baddies in this!

If you're really stuck for something to watch then give it a go. I'm sure you'll have better ideas of what should be done in certain situations compared to what was actually done.

Although the whole idea and premise of the movie was workable and a good idea, the script writers totally screwed the movie over. There is far too many examples of people ignoring common sense, unrealistic police procedures, and a lot or bad acting mostly from the plumber. And it is really bad when a character talks to themselves out of context to extend the plot. The plot twist was ok, but watching this movie made me angry while watching the characters completely ignore common sense.

The opening 5 minutes were perfect, I was surprised how carefully the scenes were written... and then Henry Thomas and Olivia Taylor Dudley entered and I was looking at porn-level acting. I'm not exaggerating, they can't act! Then Jennifer Robertson appeared and she was worse... and then the rest, each one worse than the previous one.

This film could have been good, enjoyable mindless fun, but the actors are beyond anything you would imagine in terms of bad, bad acting.

If they ever make a remake with *real* actors and they even hire a director, I'll watch it. Until then, I'm sorry, it's a hard no.

It's a situational thriller with a little boring starter and a fairly boring main character. He's too vanilla, goody two shoes. Which is why I was surprised when the thriller part kicked in, he turned out to be a little... well, a LOT tougher. He fought back the enemies. At first the plot was pretty straight forward. But nearing the end of the movie, there's a pleasant little twist. Not that much, but still pretty good. I mean, at least I didn't expect it at all. And along the thriller scenes, there were some accidental comedic potentials. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but it made the movie so much refreshing than before (it was pretty boring TBH). So over all, I think it's good enough for 6 stars.
