Outfall

It's got a really good premise, but that's about it. Hard for me to say much without spoilers, but I'll try. The sheer number of times both characters passes up easy opportunities to "end" this struggle is ridiculous. The movie should have ended in the first 15 minutes. Blunder after blunder by both parties has me wondering if this wasn't a spoof on this kidnapping genre. I half expected to see them rip off masks to reveal it was Mr Bean and Lucille Ball. If you decide to waste your time watching this show, don't say you weren't warned, because I absolutely wish I hadn't watched it. I expected better out of both these actors.

First of all, this film isn't NEARLY as bad as some reviewers on here would have you believe it is. Do unrealistic situations occur? Of course they do! It's called "suspension of disbelief," guys. You know, that mode your brain reverts to when watching the SAW movies of when viewing any James bond flick. You think, "Oh my god, that is so absurd; that could never happen!" but you let it go because you understand you are watching a work of fiction. In that regard this movie fits right in. Don't think so damn much about it and just enjoy the nonsensical ride.

Now, if after watching this, you want to see Luke Evans and Kelly Reilly in far superior thriller/horror films, check out their respective movies, No One Lives and Eden Lake. The latter contains one of my all-time favorite twist endings and is one of the most brutal films I have ever seen.

This film popped up on Now TV with 1/5 rating. Checked IMDb and again, the rating was low. Regardless, I decided to watch it and I'm glad I did. The film is much better than the ratings suggest; It was quite tense in places with a decent twist, and top notch acting. Take the bad reviews with a pinch of salt and watch this film; you'll be as pleasantly surprised as I was.

Not sure what the terrible reviews are about. This deserves at minimum 5-6/10. It's unique, it's got some thrills and great fight scenes. Give it a try, guaranteed your entertained.

If you are just looking for anything to watch you should give this movie a try. Slow in some parts, and very predictable. Not only that, but the scenerios in the movie are very far fetched, and in my mind could not happen.
