    One coincidence after the next

    Oh dear, where to begin. Sadly, Brendan Fraser might be many things, but a 'Bruce Willis' he will never be. What we have here - loosely - is 'Die Hard in the woods.' The former 'George of the Jungle' (aka Mr Fraser) has only gone and got himself locked up for protecting trees (perhaps he should have lived on Pandora?) and thus has found himself separated from his (not so loving) family. Then, if that wasn't bad enough, they only go on a camping trip and witness a murder! Cue Brendan Fraser deciding that that was the time he better break out of prison and save them. Because - and let's face it - no one knows those woods better than an eco-activist who's dedicated his life to protecting them.

    So, if you think that sounds any way enjoyable or believable, go ahead and watch it. You may be surprised. However, for me, it was just one unbelievable coincidence after the next. I'm all far 'suspending your disbelief' while watching a film, but this is taking it too far.

    If you like the idea of 'Die Hard in the woods' try a little-known film called 'Predator.' It was kind of cool. This, however, is not. End of. Sorry Brendan... but you're better off sticking to watching out for trees rather than protecting them!

    Um, what's the point of that movie...?

    The plot of the movie was kinda interesting, but not really innovative (because there are too many action movies similar to this one). The storyline wasn't well-written, it was full of plot holes and it wasn't very well-explained. The characters were kinda interesting, but I didn't really care what was gonna happen to them and they weren't developed, at all. The filming location of the movie was just nice, nothing wow. Of course, there were some intense scenes during that movie, but nothing WOW. The ending scene of the movie was kinda expected, but I didn't really care what was gonna happen, because it was a really boring movie. Overall, it was a low budget action movie, that wasn't innovative at all and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone...

    Wow. Where do I begin. Not good.

    Plot - weak, poorly planned, full of holes and questions, and well, kinda dumb.

    Acting - Not one of Dominic Purcell's best moments. Best actor of the film was the young daughter. Brendan Frasier is just a poor actor to begin with so casting him in an action/thriller is a recipe for a lot of good jokes and unbelievable acting. Its really bad actually. His panic'd yelling is really humorous. Like scared little girl meets Encino man.

    Setting was the only plus to this movie. Some great scenery if you like nature. That's about all.

    As they said in the movie, RUN!!! (as far away from this movie...)

    From the beginning, movie made no sense. There was no connection from the flashback introduction to the main story, chasing kids in the woods, running in circles (really they seemed to run in circles for 3 days) to try to get away and too many holes to fill in the movie. (why were the 2 brothers running to Canada?)

    All in all, this movie falls into the category of "2 hours I'll never get back again."

    50/50

    Just finished watching this movie. The few written reviews this movie has received so far are a little on the harsh side. Although this was not a great movie it certainly was not a bad movie either. It was stuck someone in the middle. I really loved how this movie is set in Ontario, Canada. I am from Ontario myself and so it is refreshing to see movies from home so to speak. The idea behind this movie is solid enough the acting was a bit weak even for a big star like Brandon. I would say the best acting was from Dominic Purcell who is best known for his role in Prison Break.

    I rated this movie an 5 out of a possible 10. I was not bad but it also was not that good good either.

      At 53:55 and 54:07 you can see the scope cap is fitted to the rifle so Tommy couldn't have seen anything through it.
