    Incredibly disappointing representation of people with intellectual disabilities

    Every other review is correct about the low level of acting, writing, editing, fight choreography, etc... everything is very stupid and poorly done. It is shot relatively well, with proper lighting and sound, so I'm assuming it is somewhere in the level of a Lifetime movie (middle-aged woman protagonist in a robe and everything.)

    Nothing is original, so my review won't be either. I'm pretty sure I've seen every one of my comments in the other 1-2 star reviews. Eric Roberts is undoubtedly the only real credential, and I'm sure his face and his name were only used to sell the movie. He is very limited throughout.

    Overall, don't waste your time. It doesn't come across as a thrilling home-invasion flick. It comes across like a depressing look at how a botched robbery would end up if a disabled couple also smoked meth.

    DONT EVER WATCH

    Everything bad...please watch anything else...i wasted my time watching it but u don't have to....acting very bad I don't even know how they could make a movie like that ....if there is zero star i will give.

    Worst stinker ever made, don't waste your time!

    Starts Off Bad, But Wait, it Gets Worse... 1 Star. I would give 0 Stars, but the rating system won't allow it.

    Let me break it down for you. Any movie with Eric Roberts in it is AUTOMATICALLY on my bottom-feeder movie list. He is a terrible wannabe actor.

    I am honestly so shocked at how bad this movie was, that I won't even bother explaining it. Story was horrible, acting was horrible, effects were horrible, and the list goes on.

    Avoid at all cost!

    DO NOT waste your time !

    The most hideous awful movie ! Don't waste your time ! Everything about it bad ! I am shocked Eric Roberts accepted the role to be in this not true movie that bait clicks you into wasting your time that is not based on a true story! What a joke ! I'd rather watch paint dry!

    Surprise or not

    I don't know if a break in can be accurately described as a surprise visit? I mean that is a pun that I would make or a joke I would use. For movie purposes that is - not real life situations, just to be clear.

    Eric Roberts - I wonder a lot has been said about Nicolas Cage popping movies left and right (though he always delievers no matter how good or bad the script is/was) and about Bruce WIllis - though we now know why he did so many. He needed to make retirement money. No one seems to be talking about Eric Roberts - but why should they. He is doing his thing - sometimes it may feel like he is phoning it in too - but he has the charisma to still pull anything off anyway.

    He of course is not the main character here. They are not as easily likeable I'd say - but you may understand their motives anyway. A decent enough thriller with enough surprises - even if nothing too exciting maybe.
