Intrusion

An entertaining, easy 90 minute watch with a bit of tension and jeopardy, and not nearly as predictable as I thought it would be from the blurb and the reviews.

The writers could have made the last 20 minutes work much harder, though. Following the 'big reveal' they could have done more interesting or unexpected things with the situation, and it felt like those final scenes should have been much more exciting in terms of both action and interaction between the characters. Instead it was kind of flat and underwhelming - and after all the slow build up seemed to be over in a flash.

All the actors did a good job and I'm surprised Freida Pinto is getting dragged for her performance, which I thought was nicely understated and fitted the character well. Overall it was a decent effort and I particularly liked the colour grade and production design, which contributed a lot to the chilly, slightly off-kilter feel.

Just watched this on a Saturday night and for what it is, it's ok. It is not an Oscar winning film but it is a good watch with popcorn and a few jump scares. Seems to be harshly reviewed and although the acting isn't perfect, there are a lot worse films out there. Just give it a go.

Actually Intrusion is ranked third on Netflix. So me and my wife tried to watch it. The critics here are so negative but you have to make your own opinion. Then we saw the thriller and we thought it must not be so bad as written in the reviews.

Finally we spent surprisingly an entertaining evening. It's a solid psycho thriller.

The main actors did a good job. The atmosphere and the landscapes were creepy done. The story was not boring and this is why we give an average of 5.5 out 10.

Well filmed and produced, but was just so obvious from the first act, if you're like my partner and enjoy jump scares that others can see coming a mile off you might like it.

It's under 90 minutes so not bad to put on if you want something that doesn't need concentrating on before bed, or maybe after a few drinks.

Yes if you have seen a thriller (or two or more), you probably will get where this movie is heading. So there won't be too many surprises story wise, but I like the actors (doing a great job). And even when I knew what this was going to be about, it was well told. Especially with another almost twist before the third act.

So yeah this is quite flawed and predictable for many, but it is well made and edited. It lives off the actors and their charisma mostly - which is at least something I'd argue.
