Breaking In

Does she get to say: "You broke into the wrong house"? You bet she does.

Union's Shaun Russell may not possess the superhuman powers of Wonder Woman, but she's a formidable adversary nonetheless, a fearsome warrior armed with a fierce maternal instinct serving as both a weapon and a shield.

Too many unanswered questions and not enough character development.

Just in time for Mother's Day comes a thrill-free, home-invasion thriller about a mom (Gabrielle Union) who'll stop at nothing to keep four bad guys from killing her two kids. Buy a ticket to this dull, dim-witted con job and you'll want to break out.

Union is committed and convincing, but the script apparently never met a cliche it didn't want to adopt wholesale.

The film does have a very smart hero in Gabrielle Union, who makes refreshing choices...besides that, this is a throwaway, disposable thriller.

A contender for the worst movie of the year so far.

There's simply not much that can be said about a film that aims low and still manages to miss its mark.

Gabrielle Union is so good here. She deserves much better than this movie, and so do audiences.

A perfect TV movie.
