Wordiezett So much average

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

justonfreeman This is another example of the Canadian government stealing money from taxpayers to support terrible writers, terrible acting and directing in order to make Canadian content quota for Canadian cable and satellite. Absolutely horrible.

sueblue-31213 This is my first review. Sometimes I think the reviews are little harsh but in this case they are pretty spot on. This is a really really poor movie. Don't waste this 2 hours of your life

Leofwine_draca CRASH SITE: A FAMILY IN DANGER is honestly one of the worst films I've sat through in a good while. It's even worse than a typical Asylum movie, and the reason for that lies with the scriptwriter, who contributes the dumbest story imaginable. I looked up his resume and saw he also scripted PAPARAZZI PRINCESS: THE Paris HILTON STORY, which goes some way in explaining his ineptitude.In any case, the viewer is caught up in the lives of an annoying family (boring father, chatterbox wife, obnoxious teenage daughter) as they go on vacation in the sticks. Unfortunately for them, the father's business is being attacked by hackers, men who will stop at nothing to steal his secrets, and they're willing to sabotage the trip to achieve their goals.What follows is a mix of crime thriller and survival story, but every aspect of the tale is a huge embarrassment. It all screams fake and trivial, and as a bonus the acting is completely horrid. Worst of all is the character of the wife, played by ageing BUFFY actress Charisma Carpenter. The writer thought it would be a good idea to make her the most annoying character ever: constantly nagging, arguing for the sake of it, never giving her husband a chance. This goes on for the whole film and incredibly some moments seem to have been played for laughs, but it's just excruciating. As is this film in general.

slardea-1 Tyro Canadian director Joseph Bourque and the Passer family have ejected CRASH SITE, a seemingly high powered melodrama in which spouses attending a family event at their country lodge are stalked by assailants. Although it begins and ends on a note of corporate espionage,, the bulk of the movie follows the couple's survival and marital disintegration in the wilderness, following a car crash in which their Jeep had been sabotaged. Borque and his scenarist Joseph Passer have likewise sabotage their vehicle by portraying the Sanders as unsympathetic and aggressively self-centered -- and in her case, stupidly impulsive. Without a likable character in sight, the story degenerates into tedium. The finale generates some excitement but the denouement is dreary and clichéd. One could say the parallels generated in the story are interesting to consider -- such as the cataclysmic auto wreck that the Sanders miraculously survive, occurring right after Dan Sanders' financial firm begins faltering under a hacker's siege. And some effort is made to convey the Sanders' upper class status and the business life of Dan as a purveyor of great banking wealth, who is helpless and hapless, hobbled and without a compass in the forest. But the twists and turns in CRASH SITE are not engaging enough because the leads are insufferable whiners.My previous exposure to Bourque was the not-bad SyFy Channel programmers DOOMSDAY PROPHECY (2011) and TERMINATION POINT (2007). CRASH SITE is advertised as a thriller with horror elements, with horrific scenes credited to human led carnage (mostly off-screen) that occurs during the final act and the potentially exciting but underdeveloped subplot of hungry wolves that follow the hapless Sanders couple through the outback. These mild horrors are rendered microscopic compared with the film's score, an obtrusive cacophony of poor library music that always threatens to sink this delicate project into even muddier mediocrity. As the "battling bickersons," Sebastian Spence as Dan tries hard but is submerged in a weak characters, while Charisma Carpenter as the wife has all the charm of a snake in a sleeping bag. The remaining cast was perfunctory and unmemorable.
