Intrusion

If I give a score below 5, it means the movie is a bad B movie. I gave this a 5 because it wasn't a B movie. It was a movie that had a good premise/idea, but didn't execute it very well. I lay most of the blame on script. The main guy in it is a good actor but one can only do so much with a script like that. First, they made his wife a dumb dumb. She was suspicious in the beginning when the guy was being the perfect husband and then when there were shady things, she suspicion went away until it was just too obvious something was going on. She found clues WAY to easily and found the secret room WAY too easily. She read the house blue prints as if she were a master architect. She broke into a car and found a an exact key she needed to open a mailbox later and broke into a house and found an envelope she needed. It was just done in a lazy way. This is what happens when streamers need content badly and they'll take anything. If you skip it, you won't miss anything.

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.

This is one of those movies where people make stupid mistakes/decisions and you find yourself screaming at the TV - stab him until his dead, pick up the knife, don't drop the gun, close/lock the door, wait until he's not home, take the damned bat, hurry up!

You get the picture.

We've all been there.

Oh, and the house was ugly AF.

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.

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.
