I'm still pissed off about how stupidly awkward the attempted murder of Lena Headey's character by that blond psycho was.

I regret watching is load of BS. The whole concept of government mobilizing gangsters to attack on the weak was stupid. If they really wanted people to die they could make short work of it and nuke the region. 

A terrible movie! unrealistic fighting scenes, moronically scripted kid that looked like he was adopted from some arabic countries. But the worst thing is that there is absolutely no pay off in this movie, that whole group of neighbours should have been dead before the clock hit 7 AM.

It's probably the most over-rated film of recent times. They could have had some good ideas with this premise, instead they made a very average, ordinary home invasion film. It's like a film version of a creepypasta.

Slight spoilers.

I think the idea is rather interesting. But, unfortunately, they've used it to make a really average film... It did hold my attention throughout. But, no more than that... I didn't care about anyone and the acting was nothing special... Rather than jumping up and down in the street, shouting his head off, the homeless bloke would have been much better off investing his energy in finding a really good hiding place. So, that was one silly aspect... As for the son letting him in... Well, he was obviously meant to be intelligent and it's not like he wouldn't have known the risks of letting in a stranger on a night like that. But, as the character wasn't particularly well-drawn, we didn't really get any indication of an extreme kind-heartedness which might have overriden common sense in that situation... I'm probably giving too much thought to a film which doesn't really deserve it. But, given a bit more thought, better writing, etc., I think this could have been a really good film.

adgerking10 : I agree, the premise of the story had potential, but obviously they couldn't come up with a more interesting unfolding of events.

the end result is pretty bad but i have to give credit to the movie for coming up with an interesting premise

i'd rather watch a movie which takes risks to show me something new even if it fails, than a movie which brings nothing new to the table and plays it safe

so many movies, so little time
