AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Theo Robertson The TV page of the newspaper described this as " Action drama . When a gang of bank robbers take a boy hostage his mother armed with a bow and arrow is determined to stop them " Wow I thought I was going to be watching a TVM unlike I`d never seen before with Rambolina turning lowlife scumbags into human pin cushions . Unfortunately DEAD AHEAD ( Sounds very like a maritime type title doesn`t it ? ) is basically like every other TVM you`ve seen with tedious sequences of Mom lecuturing her kids on work ethic . This might have been improved if it was one of those cheap to video films because much of the unrealism stems from the bad guys saying things like " Shut the hell up " and " What the heck are doing ? Playing with your zip ? ". As much as I disliked it CROCODILE 2 DEATH SWAMP at least had the gang of bank robbers swearing and that`s always going to be the problem with this type of film - Children are abducted , people die but everyone minds their language
helpless_dancer Remake of a rehash of a remake. Ridiculous, completely predictable, not to mention totally unbelievable yarn dealing with 4 bank robbers who kidnap a young boy in order to locate a point in unknown territory. Of course, the parents, armed only with bows and arrows, go after junior in a heroic, but dumb, effort to recapture the kid. Why they never picked up one of the thugs guns when presented the opportunity is way beyond me. And believe me these criminals were stupider than Moe, Shimp, and Larry. I doubt they could have knocked over a lemonade stand and gotten away....maybe one brain could have been rounded up among the four. All this negative opinionating doesn't mean I didn't like the tale: it was exciting and the scenery was something else. It reminded me of "River Wild", only not nearly as good.
