"Bad guys meet someone even worse than them." seems to be its own genre, and I'm tired of seeing it. I just watched a very similar movie called The Price We Pay, so the "twist" was very easy to spot early on. The father in the wheelchair keeps making weird faces, and appears to be trying to speak, despite being catatonic in a wheelchair. I wonder if the medication mother is giving him is actually the reason he's in that state? Yep. Of course it is. Which obviously makes mother a villain.
Don't get me wrong. It had potential, and the acting was good. I like the character development with the older brother. When he had to kill the young girl's real mom, that part actually made me tear up. He was the only reason the girl found out that the woman wasn't her real mother, and was able to escape. How does she repay him? By driving off without him. Which led to the dumbest ending.
Mother escapes, and keeps the older brother in the same catatonic state that she kept the girl's father and mother in. Where did she escape to? Just a giant castle off the coast. No way they'll ever find her there. How was she able to afford the place? How does she apparently have a lifetime supply of drugs to keep people catatonic? Who knows? Who cares? The screenwriter sure didn't. I'm no drug expert, but I do know they have an expiration date. Intravenous drugs expire even quicker than medication taken orally.
I don't like movies that fall apart the longer you think about them, and this is definitely one of those movies. The majority of these glowing reviews are false. Look at their accounts. Some of them have been on this site for years, some less, but they almost all have one thing in common. This movie is the ONLY movie "they've" ever reviewed. This seems suspicious af.
