Us and Them

Film school grads who want to do crime thrillers should look to Huston, Hitchcock and Don Siegel as much as they look to Ritchie and Tarantino. This is a triumph of slo-mo, shock cuts and lousy dialogue over genuinely intriguing content. A putative class-warfare underpining is the excuse for torture and mayhem. There is vistually no humor here at all, espceially for a theoretic "dark comedy". The acting is fairly good, I'd like to see the cast with a decent script and director. But this waste of time and talent ain't it.

I knew nothing about this movie when i sat down to watch it, so i had no expectations. But from opening moments i found myself completely engaged by the acting, and interested in the characters Strait away. The film is a truly brilliant thriller that holds your breath from the first minute to the last. Everybody's not gonna be Happy about How they have built up the explosive finale, But i liked it. No problems with that kind of approach, at least in This case.

Having said that, I enjoyed the movie very much i highly recommend every thriller fan to see it.

This film has great pacing good acting and intriguing cinematography.

DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE REVIEWS KNOCKING THIS WELL THOUGHT OUT Home Invasion. Hidden between many layers reveals a film that poignantly depicts the mindset of those who have and the have nots.. The film is also a dark comedy but plays it well not to disrupt the pacing. Camera angles are also a delight when watching this film, It's a pretty straight forward movie so I won't go any further and spoil the film but it's definitely worth a watch.. Through out the entirety I was engaged , Though there was a scene or two at mid point that didn't seem to believable because it would of attracted to much attention for them to pull it off. And like I said in the header at the very end the movie kind of morphed into the dark comedy element which was kind of jolting but when you add it all up gives you a great amount of good film thats worth sitting down and setting some time aside for. so I give this a GOOD MOVIE rating.

Tries too hard to be cruel and funny .Not a bad effort in parts , copies alot off lock , stock and A Clockwork Orange. Could of been great but ends up being poor.

An extra point earnt for two tracks by The Damned in the soundtrack. One or two low reviews by others almost stopped me watching this movie but as I'm a curious soul it spurned me on to watch it and find out myself and I'm glad I did. Sure the movie could have been better, twice as long but it didn't have to be, the point had already been made. The obscene, grotesque wealth gap of the social divide has been widening for many decades to the point where food banks are a lifestyle for those who have nothing, It's depressing stuff but it's real life for many and the injustice of it all is sickening. Is the movie believable, could it really happen?.., perhaps but hopefully not, it does however serve as a reminder that there's a limit a person can take when they feel they have nothing left to live for. It's a shame someone reviewed this movie as only being suitable for the white van man. I think it's a movie that tests a person's perception of reality and ignorance
