As they're held for ransom, a husband and wife's predicament grows more dire amid the discovery of betrayal and deception. Kyle (Nicolas Cage), a real estate agent, lives in an isolated, museum-like mansion with his wife Sarah (Nicole Kidman) and their adolescent daughter Avery (Liana Liberato). The three are at home preparing to have a nice family dinner when unexpected visitors arrive, wearing masks, making demands and packing heat, but Kyle refuses to cooperate.
PRO REVIEWS
----------------------------------------
"An astoundingly senseless thriller featuring Nicolas Cage, Nicole Kidman, and a band of masked goons. (The word thriller is used very loosely)" (Steven Rea: Philadelphia Inquirer) ----------------------------------------
"Cage and director Joel Schumacher, who has fallen so far from the A-list that he provokes a demand for new letters of the alphabet after Z, have each found their cinematic soulmates (...) Rating: 1/2 (out of four)" (Kyle Smith: New York Post) ----------------------------------------
"A home-invasion flick that grabs viewers by the throat and only stops squeezing long enough to wipe sweat from its palms..." (John DeFore: The Hollywood Reporter) ----------------------------------------
"Why would stars of the magnitude of Mr. Cage and Ms. Kidman sign on to a project whose screenplay is so inept that the movie, even if profitable, will stand as a career-impeding setback? Can't they read?" (Stephen Holden: The New York Times) ----------------------------------------
"One of those movies that an audience knows is terrible the minute it starts. (Wesley Morris: Boston Globe) ----------------------------------------
