The movie was great! I would have liked to see more in the beginning as far as her relationship with her dad & how he got put in the situation he was in. Just something showing what led up to why he was targeted versus the actual guys telling why they broke in.

Its is the typical locked in one area movie. Union did really well, though very similar movie situations. Its worth seeing once but not twice. Opinion.

Predictable

Loved Gabby in the movie! Not cheesy at all.

Gabrielle Union really did her thing in this one

intense but textbook hostage drama not much you haven't seen before

I gave this movie 2 stars because it just wasn't great to me. Gabby as always takes her roles seriously. Don't expect much of a back story and the action happens very quickly. Very predictable, no plot twists and the fighting scenes were ok. I would say though the story line showing what a mother would do for her children was very spot on... actually the more I think of it i gave it a 2 because it didn't have the wow factor. You know when a movie is good when everyone leaves the theater talking about different scenes, well there wasn't much talk afterwards.

Good movie I wish it was a little bit more detail on what happen with the pops

I was surprised by the ending. Gabriel Union really played the part of protective mother well.

Could’ve been better

great movie my family and I loved it her husband could have fought back a little more

This movie was great and filled with a lot action!

With all that money & technology, the system couldn't alert the police & in this day & age, there was not 1 cell to call 911? Or the fact that she ran the dude over twice & he survived? Or the end where her husband is just sitting there & not trying to rescue his women?! Please!

this movie was nowhere near as good as the trailer made it seem. To be honest just wait til August to watch it on DVD or even til September when HBO picks it up

This movie is great people should really see it

Empowering, entertaining, action flick

So much more could have been done with the plot...

great movie

Overall, this was a great movie and acting. The husband could have done better and the ending could have been better.

Very good movie....

The movie was so good.

One of the “bad guys” was really creepy, but overall, not stellar.

It was a good movie, predictable though but still good. Gab Union was AWESOME as usual but wish they would've told more in the beginning of her relationship with her father and more about her father that led to why there was a break in. just not enough in the beginning but all in all was a good movie...

I should have gotten my money back, it was sooo bad.

Is not just a movie, is a message that makes you think how capable is a mother to do when her kids are in danger!! I totally recommend to watch it!!

The only annoying part of this movie is the people talking on the movie theatre during the movie, making comments, and screaming. If you know you do all that during a movie, watch it at home when it comes out or go when the movie theatre is going to be empty.

This was a great movie! There were some emotional parts that made me cry. 😢 But I loved it, it was super interesting!! 😍

I'm a Gabrielle Union fan, even more so after reading her book. Movie was a good wraparound to remind me that she should be in more movies.

Not that great.

Loved It

basic lifetime network movie

It was a very good movie. There were a few parts that didn’t make sense or didn’t seem to fit into the plot well. Without saying any spoilers, there were a few parts that I feel needed more explanation as to how or why they happened but overall the movie was good.

Its was ok. Kinda predictable but a ok movie

#intense

It was pretty entertaining and a little intense.

great family movie

Good movie. I'm glad I didn't listen to some of the negative reviews. Gabrielle is a really good actor and she believably carried the movie as the star. Two thumbs up.

Movie had good actors

I love the movie!!!

was a pretty good movie

an amazing movie

love it especially my girl Gabrielle Union wade

pretty bad when everyone talks and yells

Love Gabriele Union!!

Terrible

It was a hit for my f friend and I. great suspense and action scenes from an amazing actress

Gabby's a beast!

I heard this movie wasn’t great but I was surprised! There were a lot of cliff hanging moments which kept me interested.

this is a Must See😎

Best movie ever

With more than a passing nod to the far classier Panic Room, this derivative seat-squirmer has a few good moments in spite of Johnny Klimick’s annoying score, its energy powered by the raw determination of its Mother Courage.

Steve Davis

Austin Chronicle

Union is committed and convincing, but the script apparently never met a cliche it didn't want to adopt wholesale. This offers some thrills and considerable pace, but never enough narrative force.

Helen O'Hara

Empire

With an overbearing score, Breaking In telegraphs almost everything that happens yet still provides several jolts amid its occasionally questionable twists. While the filmmakers aren’t exerting themselves to deliver anything other than a popcorn-seller, Ms. Union is working hard to keep you watching.
