Assailant

I've seen so many variations of this story that I almost didn't watch it, and if I hadn't I wouldna missed anything. That said, this was four excellent actors so the play was satisfying even though we knew exactly what was going to happen. Minus a point for stupid victims who knock down the bad guy and run without taking advantage of their being stunned or unconscious (don't we all hate that cheap trick?) Can't recommend it strongly but if you like psycho-killer thrillers then it's not the worst pick of the genre.

Van Dien is a decent actor who really sold himself out on this. Actually a good story let down by the others appalling acting.

There were so many ways they could have taken that guy out. I know that wouldn't have made a film but at least try and make it a little more realistic.

Your colleagues let you down on this one Casper, and not a bug in sight. !!

I enjoyed watching it from start to end. The storyline is so good. Perfect casting and excellent actings, especially Actor Chad Michael Collins in the role of the Assailant's victim, his acting is absolutely persuasive and shockingly different from what we mostly know about him in playing hero characters such as Sniper film franchise's Brandon Beckett.

Strongly recommended!

## DNF. Couldn't even finish. Way too much bickering and arguing. That's the first 45 minutes. This couple SHOULD divorce. After that, this movies turns into a horror film. The brutal killings, the blood, and the stupidity of the couple. With 31 min left, I gave up. I just didn't care about these people. The only good thing about this movie (and the sole reason I raised my rating to 3) is Jeff Fahey.

When couples therapy fails, Zoe is thinking about divorcing her husband Jason because he works too many hours. The couple decide to go on holiday to give their marriage one last chance at rekindling their relationship. At a bar Jason meets Johnny Rico from Starship Troopers, only now he calls himself Michael and has an OCD obsession with the number 3 which often has to stretch to make any sense. He's also doing his best impression of Michael from Halloween.

I won't put much effort into this review because it's clear no one involved with this project or much effort into it either.

With the sole exception of Jeff Fahley the acting is terrible. Honourable mentions for Casper Van Dein and Poppy Delevingne whom tie for worst performances. I mean the silent extras do better jobs than these two. Van Dein is still doing his Johnny Rico bit and Delevingne appears to have gone to the same acting school as Paris Hilton.

The script comes across as if it were written by a high school student having their first experience with a camera. Speaking of the camera work is mediocre with weird lighting choices given the context. Cutaway B roll scenes regularly have little to no connection with the A roll scenes either side of them.

Pacing is slow, tedious and yet somehow manages to fail entirely to portray how much in movie time has passed. Every possible opportunity this film misses it. Don't waste your life watching it, you'll never forgive yourself if you do.
