Trespass tells the story of a seemingly rich family who gets burglarized. Cage plays the diamond-dealing dad, and none of his decisions make sense in the face of such violent trespassers. And as a viewer, the budding story is already too stupid for me to wonder what everyone's hiding. None of the characters had me rooting for them.
So what did the makers of Trespass think would gain interest from potential viewers? Would neglectful dads and husbands identify with Cage's character. Maybe there's a huge demographic of dudes who want to see Nicole Kidman as a smart, seemingly rich housewife, threatened with guns, knives, needles, and rape. What about the obsessive cult following for the hunter bad vampire from the first Twilight movie, who want to see him as a psychotic junky human?
Those are Trespass's only selling points, and the algorhythm was right about this deserving flop. Readers take heart. The masses aren't always asses.

For weeks I had a hankering to see this film. Was it on Soulseek? No. The Pirate Bay? Still No. Demonoid? Probably too sketchy for my Windows 10 desktop. I found it on Google Play. $4 just for a viewing? Surely a disc of it is sitting in some thrift store for 50 cents. I went with the next best thing. $1 + $3.50 shipping from ebay. For what seemed like a month, I replayed every (remembered) scene in my head. After several tries I got the dvd ripped and streaming from Emby to my Chromecast to my tv. I pretty much killed my popcorn trying to get it all together. After all strife, Leave it to Beaver did not disappoint. All the jokes hit home. All the characters were played hilariously without being total parodies. The score? To die for. You also get to see the world's smallest football player kick some serious butt. That's all for spoilers. It was like an extra long episode of a wholesome family sitcom. The best type of film. Better than D3? Maybe. It's not as emotional. Better than Quiet Place part II? We'll see.
