First Three Quarters Good, Last Quarter Falls Apart

The beginning of the movie is about a home invasion. It's been done before, some good and some bad. I thought this part of the movie was good. For the first three quarters of the movie I was stressed out...but in a good way. I didn't understand what was happening, who was in the house and why, but I knew my main character was in trouble and I wanted her to escape. The images were dark, cluttered. Where is she? Is someone behind her? Can they see her? Is she hiding well enough? How can she get out? Is she going to make it? Are those friends or foes? Can we trust them?Then just when I couldn't take anymore stress...the movie instantly got stupid. The entire ending fell apart and my good simple but scary movie went limp. My coping mechanisms kicked in, not because the stress had resolved, but rather because they would be useless where the movie brought me. And it's not like we haven't seen this sort of ending before so I'm not sure why the writers even went there.

This was mostly a down the blouse movie for 90 minutes

This is a half step up from most "found footage" movies.The plot was boring. There was no proper tension built up.The acting, especially from the male actors, was horrible. It seemed like all the dialogue was (poorly) improvised on the spot.The camera work was amateurish...and that's disrespecting a lot of amateurs out there.The lightning was dismal. The video quality in low light scenes made a lot of the film look like a home movie.I get that the creators of this movie was trying to achieve a specific style. Unfortunately, the style that we saw was on par with a grade school A/V project.Not to be rude, but the constant cleavage shots were the most interesting parts of this movie.I find that reviews with a rating of 1 or 10 are generally bogus, so I refrain from assigning those grades, but my two stars is a generous rating.Avoid!
