I am in two minds about this movie. I love Owen Wilson and the movie itself was well made - however I see why some of the reviews are poor. I began to get motion sickness from handheld cameras about 20 mins into the movie and had to leave before it ended - I wish movies filmed with handheld cameras would put up a warning sign.
This movie sucked. Horrible I left half way through was falling asleep. Not worth your money people
After seeing it a second time, knowing what happens and the reason why it's happening definitely adds to the message this movie carries. Despite what some reviewers may say, the movie does take a brief moment to explain what is happening and why. The reason is heartbreaking because of how close to home it hits for those of us who live in "better" (for lack of a better word) conditions.
another 3rd-4th world south-east asian negative portrayal where innocent foreigners (well meaning white families) are brutally slaughtered by angry natives after a coup d'etat of its corrupt leader ... a storyline gone wrong way around! throwing in the out of place confession of an economic hit man couldn't help give the 'good' natives any redeeming qualities. John Perkins would cringe if he saw how opposite this movie is to realities in the last 100years
Fell asleep.
Don't know what movie everyone was watching but this movie was terrible. I felt like I had no escape from this far fetched movie, only my popcorn kept me there.
Best movie this year!
Wilson showed his serious acting skills..excellent move. Would see again. Exciting from beginning till the end. Scarey what could happen and does happen in real life !
This movie was amazing! It was an edge of your seat, hold your breathe tail about survival and the lengths you would go to protect your family. I will be watching this movie again.
I will see it again,Wilson was great
