Avarice

Predicable, terrible acting, ridiculously cliched ending. As for the archery, there is almost no way that target arrows would inflict fatal injuries with only one strike. Then we have the annoying teenager who hates her parents. A troubled marriage, with the obligatory passive agressive comments. To top it all off the closing song was the last straw. I am trying to think of who would actually enjoy this film. The film does want to cash in on the political correctness of a strong female lead on the side of good and part of the home invasion gang. I watched it as I am a keen archer. Watch 2 flies on a wall instead!

A few twist, Everything explained.

I am sure the right Hollywood crew. Could do it better, with a big budget. This was well done for probably a respectable budget. The characters were relatable, even the villains.

I don't know why it is so hard to get a movie made in Australia. One would think they would be wide open to jump on the bandwagon. I have heard from some very high level people it is hard to get done there.

Maybe they don't want the corruptive influenced, cannot blame them.

We have all enjoyed time in Australia and Australian friends. It's a beautiful country. Way too bad about that hole in the ozone right above them and the effect. Totally have to wear lots of sunscreen!

I digress, fun movie! Starts off ketchy, then gets better. The actors all seemed sweet and fresh, which is nice.

If you hang in past the first 1/2 hour, I think you will enjoy it.

When I first rented this movie it had no reviews and it looked relatively low budget. I figured I would give it a chance, I was glad I did. It may be a lower budget, not the best acting, and a relatively unknown film but it was entertaining and worth a watch if you like thrillers! I feel like I have seen every movie out and the home invasion archery spin was a cool idea. I also appreciated the main character and the work the director did to make you care about her and her actions. I'll be keeping my eye out for other Australian produced films in the future! Worth the 5.99 rental for sure!!!!!!

I watched this movie with rewind of some boring scenes. The first impression at the end of the film is that I wondered what the point of the story was. We have a man who cheats on a woman with a colleague's wife, then steals from him and at the end of the film he is all righteous and victorious, I mean really, I don't know what you wanted to show with that part of the story. In general, that part of the story about who did what to whom and who cheated whom is very poorly portrayed and shown to be completely unclear. In general, the acting is at an amateur level, the characters are all generic and boringly without personality. The story is potentially good but extremely poorly presented. This is a below average time killer and nothing more!

The premise was simple enough. A dysfunctional family needs some help to work it all out. A home invasion might be just the trick. Expert archer Mom coming to the rescue could be very cool if not for her forgetting things all along the way. Especially the one thing her Dad tried to instill in her. What was that for if not to set-up her actions in the ensuing situations?? These lack of foresights are awkward ways of stalling the evitable. Shadow of a Doubt could have been Hitch's best if not for a graceless ending that insulted ones intelligence. Some cool kills, slick production values, a bad screenplay, lackluster direction, a boring score, bland villains and a Jessica Chastain wannabe in the lead adds up to only 5 stars. A moderate timewaster. In full agreement with IMDb consensus and completely befuddled by Rotten Tomatoes' 80 rating.
