BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

adonis98-743-186503 Four heavily armed hitmen and two unusual teenagers go to war over $500,000 of stolen cash. The Aggrassion Scale stars Ray Wise (Robocop) and Derek Mears (Arena, Predators, Friday The 13th) and it's basically a low budget home invasion thriller of 2 teenagers being chased by hitmen and then those kids turn into John Rambo and the hunted becomes the hunter. Pretty much i've seen things like that happening in way better filmed movies that don't have Steven C. Miller's name on it. The film's plot was pretty stupid just like the opening, the acting was awful by everyone even from Wise who was amazing in Robocop and the overall film as a whole did felt like a Miller movie. (0/10)

Rich Wright Ever wondered what would REALLY happen if someone fell prey to all of Kevin's traps in Home Alone... and they weren't treated like cartoon characters like the Wet Bandits were, by simply shrugging off their injuries? Well, look no further, as four nasty men get their comeuppance when they kill the parents of a pair of young siblings, while searching for stolen money. It just so happens the young lad has been diagnosed with a psychotic illness, and exacts his revenge in the most brutal way possible... by setting up some Rambo-style traps and maiming each one, to the point where perhaps they wished they'd knocked on someone else's door that day...It's always been a passion of mine to see ordinary people having to resort to extreme methods to stay alive, and here it's undeniably satisfying to witness these children use the most common of household objects to dismember these thugs a piece at a time. There's no doubt they deserve their horrendous fate, so don't feel guilty if you feel a sense of catharsis while the slaughter is enveloping. True, it could be better edited, and needless to say the plot requires a pill the size of an elephant to swallow.But you know what? It doesn't matter... and as that Landrover was about to smash into that trailer just before the end credits, I realised I felt something I haven't for a long time while watching a movie: Complete And Utter Gratification. As sick as it may sound... 7/10

OJT Let me warn you right away. The aggression scale is just what it sounds like, this is one brutal movie. And it starts right away. Without any warning, or rather the opposite, the film shocks you right from start. I would categorize this as a slasher.We see a couple with two teenagers moving out in the countryside, obviously moving away from something. We don't really know why, but we've got a hunch. Amongst the things, are getting away from bullies, because the boy is mute, due to this. The film starts with a brutal gangster boss, Bellavance, just out if prison, missing no less than $ 500000, and that's not acceptable to him. On his command, his hoodlums start a killing spree.A scary undertone fills the first part of the movie, beautifully filmed in a thriller/horror way, just before something happens the film slows down to slow motion film. Quite neatly done.I can see some referring to this as bloody Home alone, and they have a point. The inventiveness of the teenagers are above average, you could say. They have had to watch a lot of violent movies to get this brutal.Another interesting point is the two Twin Peaks actors, Robert Wise and Dana Ashbrook, one very recognizable, the other you've gotta watch the eyes to recognize. They are both brilliant. It's more to scrutinize with some of the other's acting. The girl Is OK until she is hurt, Then she turn plain bad. The mute kid is better. The film is also too unrealistic when it comes to the hits and the walking from the woods on broken bones. This puts me off a bit. I enjoy a good slasher, but I like it to be plausible. Some great talent here, but not all is functioning in this low budget slasher. Still it's able to keep a certain tension. Director Steven C. Miller is on his way up, and this is his best film so far.

schism911 I completely agree with the review from F_Jenkins.The premise is the only redeeming factor, but unlike him, I could not finish the movie. I discovered this movie because it had the kid from "Gummo", but his role in this movie isThe lead bad guy is just horribly miscast. His character coincides better with House from the TV show than it does as a lead killer thug. Not convincing at all. The sound effects are poor and stand out. For example, when a thug whips his shotgun up, you hear a very cartoonish "hwhoo" sound. Terrible. The kid is okay but mainly because he doesn't speak. But like the review from F. Jenkins, I was never convinced he was capable of what his character was doing. Last of all, all of these reviews spouting a R-Rated Home Alone... if this were actually the case, I would have enjoyed the movie. Don't expect elaborate traps and clever ways to take down the enemy. Nothing clever here whatsoever. Life is short. This movie is crap.
