Breakout (2013)

Good idea lost in the noise

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

From the beginning, movie made no sense. There was no connection from the flashback introduction to the main story, chasing kids in the woods, running in circles (really they seemed to run in circles for 3 days) to try to get away and too many holes to fill in the movie. (why were the 2 brothers running to Canada?)All in all, this movie falls into the category of "2 hours I'll never get back again."

Seriously this movie is rubbish. Tommy Baxter misses 8 shots at 80m with a 40x scoped rifle. He not only misses, but lucky for him gets close and hits the hull of the canoe about 1.5m away from a human target. He would have to be the worst shot in movie outdoor history LMAO At that range anyone half competent would be deciding between a head or body shotPleeease - stop the rubbish 😂

Awful movie that seemed more like a propaganda film. Evnironmentalist - Good Guy. Guy from South and believes in God - Bad Guy. The writer can't develop proper characters so he just repeats awful stereotypes of people from the South. Plot holes galore. When you have a guy who is trying to kill you, you press home the attack. I guess the "Good" environmentalist just can't bring himself to kill to save his and his children's lives. It looked like something a teenager would write. For the writer and director's sake, I hope this catastrophe was the result of better parts being left on the cutting room floor. Maybe the short segments that didn't develop were because of time constraints. Who knows? Advice to Redbox (where I got this movie), please put better movies at your locations? I have rented several movies with well known actors that have turned out to be dogs. You business is getting the reputation for being a repository of dumb movies.

Dumb. If the stupid clichés came any faster the plot would disappear.Full of holes. This tripe was so predictable I couldn't wait for it to finish. I want that two hours of my life back.The characters were so hollow and stupid that you just want the bad guys to get them. You feel more sorry for the retard Kenny than the other protagonists.Brendan stumbles all over the place aimlessly.The children would have been safer without him. The environmental line was bullshit and none of the plot hangs together at all.In fact,easily one of the worst movies ever made.
