Aggression Scale
To understand the main character of this movie, picture the
kid from Home alone if he was a complete sociopath...so basically picture the kid
from Home Alone. This a dark take. Criminals break into someone house who stole
money from them. It up to the two kids to escape as the bad guys tries to take
them out. Little do they know the boy is lunatic with a history of violence and
love to hurt people? It’s a pretty good twist. The kid is really creepy and
when the criminals found out what they dealing with they have a nice “Oh $%it
face” and some of the take downs pretty brutal. The problem is the brother and sister
doesn’t have a great amount of chemistry together. I know there step ceilings
but they don’t play off each other that well. The boy doesn’t talk...so it ups
to the sister to carry most of the dialogue and exposition...and she not a good
enough actor to carry that much weight. She mostly whines and kind of useless.
The boy pretty good at his expressions but it a bit one note, Silent Bob this
kid is not. But he plays a good lunatic. Although you get to the point where
you say...dont these criminals have guns that can aim. Don’t the kids know
where cops are or neighbors are or have Cell phones. Why they heck are they
Rambo’ing it against these guys. Also the parents hiding the money kind of
makes them the worst parents ever. All in all a nice fun flick to play if you
have nothing to do C+
