Escape

Two friends take a dreadful and horrifying vacation when criminals kidnap them in order to sell them to the highest bidder. That's when adversity and retribution sets in, this movie is about women empowerment and I was here for it. Good acting, great location scenery and women fighting back. Cliche at times but I enjoyed the film. Director Howard J. Ford previous films The Dead and The Dead 2 were also good movies, as a horror fan I am waiting for The Dead part 3. But I will recommend this movie Escape, I am all for empowering women & I am predicting this will be the year for women. Good Job 💙

Feels like it was made on an iPhone, editing is bad and I got nauseous with the amount of zooming into shot when an actor has dialogue and then loads of unnecessary cutting. They obviously had a budget to hire a drone for some unnecessary aerial shots but they actually seemed to be the best bits! Once you get past the cut & zoom style you then have the really bad accents and poor acting. Story is thin so you expect action but again disappointing, it's slow and very predictable. My guess is It's trying to be Revenge but lacks any empowerment. It actually is like the director handed his mates some phones on holiday met some women at a bar and said let's make a film while we are here ....Avoid.

I love the concept. It would be nice if there were more horror movies where the female characters are not complete morons.

Unfortunately, this isn't it. It's not a horror movie, more like a really bad comedy.

Almost every scene reminded me a scenes from horror movie parodies.

The acting is absolutely horrible. No character is believable. As bad as the girls were, the parants' "war room" side was so much worse and unnecessary.

The bad guys, especially the boss, were so badly written. The accents just made it worse.

The dialogs and the script are just bad. Karla telling that long dumb unrelated childhood story while being chased was just hilarious.

Also, Lucy finding this ABANDONED structure in the middle of the desert going door to door (openings, no actual doors) asking if anyone is home was absolutely dumb and funny (The building has no roof, ffs!). Surprising, she finds that useless homeless that hands her a plastic bottle that seem to be full with urine and cigarettes, yet she tries to drink it, then vomits.

This movie is terrible. The only thing going for it is the decent cinematography and the desert shots and the pretty good gritty efrects.

Best if avoided.

I'm not sure if the acting was bad, or it was simply down to the dialogue. In fact, I think it was the latter. Except for 2 or 3 very noticeable (and terrible) performances.

It was very cliche at times. And each sentence seems to be about 5 words long, pause, then next sentence.

There's a lot of human trafficking films out there, and this one is on the more unrealistic end. It wasn't terrible, it wasn't even bad, but it wasn't above a 4.5. No way. But it wasn't the worst film I've seen by any stretch of the imagination. So, if you're into thrillers, you'll probably not regret watching it, but probably won't remember in a week either.

Th scenery shots were about the best this movie had to offer, it was shockingly terrible acting from actors who were just going through the motions with zero effort put into what they were doing or saying, lets not get started on the horribly misplaced back stories of the main characters or the sheer stupidity of their actions and of their captors and WTH was with that random drunk in the middle of nowhere, he had absolutely no business or purpose in the entire movie, the rocks had better parts than he did. All up the entire thing from start to finish isn't worth the time or effort it takes to watch it.
