Review of Amber Alert

Amber Alert (2012)
8/10
A difficult watch but worth it.

This movie is low budget, but it is extremely realistic from a first person perspective. It plays like a shaky home movie and the two main players in the car are constantly bickering and talking over each other very much like immature children who can't think before they speak. Then they actually get behind an amber alert car they just saw listed on an overhead highway sign and they all decide to follow it as they continue to attempt to figure out what they are actually doing. Things escalate rather quickly and a lot of obvious logical steps they should have made come up which they ignore to their own hurt and which will eventually get them killed because they ignored them, like the cache of guns that they could have used to defend themselves, which would seem rather obvious to either use, or keep the bad person from using on them. As you watch this you quickly would see how just a bit more thought and planning would have everyone safe and alive. Sadly it won't go well. Movie is relatively fast paced and keeps you interested. No questionable content, nudity, or foul language, some violence but nothing gory. An "ok" watch.
