Home Sweet Home (III) (2013)

Pretty shell of a movie - but just a rotten egg inside

[1/10 · 12 April 2015]

First the movie looked good, nice lighting, camera movement, and no damn shaky camera. But that is all the good I can say. Acting was a little above amateur middle school, especially the lead female. Making cutesy faces to the camera is not acting. The other actors really had limited screen time made the least of it. The cat was the best actor. The plot was just stupid and transparent. Clichés are OK in a movie if done right but even the clichés were awful in this one. SPOILERS - Female standing over the man with a loaded gun while he has a long sword. A person would either run away or shoot again or go see if she can help someone else. The entire basement scene was overly stupid. Man is upstairs with no way to come down except for stairs. You have a gun. So keep the lock on the gun and go up, no run up the stairs. This movie was really a waste of time. It cam be summed up with the observation of stressing the female in a cheerleader outfit - pretty enticing covering but empty underneath. Just like the movie. To the director - keep your day job.
