Breaking
In is the definition of a mediocre film. This movie is about a mom who must
protect her family during a home invasion. Gabrielle Union gives a good
performance. She’s mostly compelling and believable in the action scenes. Billy
Burke gives a decent performance as the bad guy but he’s bland overall. Ryan
Engle’s script is standard for this type of movie taking zero risks. James
McTeigue’s directing is competent at best, though some scenes are very
questionable. This move desperately needed an R Rating to give the action
scenes some sense of fear. At 88 minutes the first act is very slow, but then
it becomes moderately entertaining throughout the rest of the runtime. Overall
Breaking In is yet another mediocre addition to the home invasion genre.
5/10
