‘Breaking In’ Trailer: So This Is Basically Reverse ‘Panic Room’?
I have a new favorite tagline, and it’s from Breaking In, a home invasion thriller starring Gabrielle Union as a mom whose kids are kidnapped and held inside a heavily fortified house. My favorite tagline....
“This May, payback is a mother.”
Oh heck yeah. Here’s the official synopsis:
This Mother’s Day, Gabrielle Union stars as a woman who will stop at nothing to rescue her two children being held hostage in a house designed with impenetrable security. No trap, no trick and especially no man inside can match a mother with a mission when she is determined on Breaking In. Producers Will Packer (No Good Deed, Obsessed) and Union (Almost Christmas, Being Mary Jane) reunite for this original thriller directed by James McTeigue (V for Vendetta, Sense8). Written by Ryan Engle (Non-Stop), Breaking In co-stars Billy Burke (Twilight series), Richard Cabral (End of Watch), Seth Carr (Black Panther) and Ajiona Alexus (Empire).
All that and it’s by the guy who directed Ninja Assassin? A bit of a shocker I'd say.
Basically, what you have here is a Reverse Panic Room. Remember that movie? Instead of a mom trapped in a room with people trying to get in, you have the bad guys with the kids in the house, and the heroic mom having to force her way inside. I love it. Breaking In opens in theaters on Mother's Day.
