High stress + anxiety!


10 minutes into the movie, through to the end, this movie is stressful! You'll be consistently yelling at your TV and worried sick for the characters. It was a good movie, definitly worth the RedBox rental, and Owen Wilson was very believable in the role. It will grab your attention and you you a mild anxiety disorder! Be warned, it's a lot like the movie "Taken," in the sense that you'll be afraid to leave country after watching it!

Agreed. I was freaking out through most of it!

Definitely the most intense movie I've watched. I wasn't really expecting that (though hadn't read any reviews before watching it). I was on the edge of my seat, probably holding my breath a few times and palms sweating a bit through quite a lot of the movie.

Definitely well made, felt pretty real and made you think what you would do in that situation. And had a good cast. Good movie overall though not one to watch when you just want to relax.

The only other thing I can think of that made me feel a similar way was an episode with the school shooter of 19-2. Possibly more intense than this movie.

I agree 100%. I don't freakin' care that the so called expert Roger Ebert rated this a half star. This movie was really exciting from start to finish. I haven't watched a movie that made me feel that way in a very long time. The vulnerability of the characters are just translated so good into film. Wow. That's all I can say.

Roger Ebert died years ago, buddy

this little film was much better than quite a few Hollywood blockbusters geared for twenty something boys.
Thank you Weinsteins!!

This was a plain old action movie, and quite the ride. Who are all these poindexters whining about the language, the politics, the bad guys not having enough depth, whine, whine, whine...? Good solid action B movie that keeps you on the edge of your sear start to finish.
