Avoiding spoilers here, but Intrusion has a mystery at its heart that is so eye-gougingly obvious, I spent most of the movie wondering if I was supposed to be five steps ahead of the main character or not. Was I … Continue reading
I don’t know what the problem is… this movie is a hoot. A real crime against subtly and thoughtful drama. It’s got as much tonal whiplash as it does hammy over-acting and goofy writing. It’s not a good movie but … Continue reading
