Chris and Lisa move into a new house, the neighbour Abel, bad-ass cop and neighbourhood watch afficionado, shows them that he does not approve of their lifestyle. A neighbourhood battle begins, washing up some hidden layers in everybody.
I don’t like that kind of film: a completely unlikeable main character, played by Samuel L. Jackson, who can be really annoying, and – as it turns out – who gets more unlikeable every minute. There is no development, no twist or turn, there is only escalation and some form of blood bath at the end. Not enough for good entertainment, just that feeling of unpleasantness. That makes the whole effort a bit boring, as it leads to those most pointless of things, a boring thriller.
