So I finally got around to watching this recently, and about a third of the way through I was NOT impressed. I thought the kidnapping (no spoiler here, it's right at the start) was a cliched mess right out of a middle schooler's creative writing assignment, and the whole group of criminals gave off the vibe of a low grade Reservoir Dogs ripoff.
So I stopped watching.
Then I read some reviews that claimed the movie was great and unique and blah blah and I thought "Either I'm missing something or those reviews were bought and paid for by the studio"
So I resumed watching.
I still don't think it was unique or anywhere close to great BUT the last two thirds were a significant improvement. They we fun horror-movie gory, and downright entertaining. So yes, I'm glad I went back to finish it.
Did I like it enough to recommend it or revisit it in the future? No, not really.
Grade: C+
