Predicting No Escape And We Are Your Friends Reviews by DavisJohnson(m): 9:20am On Aug 24, 2015
Labor Day must be getting close, because each week the slate of movies gets less and less exciting. This one is particularly bland. We’ve got Owen Wilson trying to get away from trouble in No Escape and Zac Efron becoming a DJ in We Are Your Friends.

Just remember, I'm not reviewing these movies, but rather predicting where they'll end up on the Tomatometer. Let's take a look at what This Rotten Week has to offer.

In a flick that assuredly doesn’t do any favors for any Southeast Asian tourism, No Escape has Owen Wilson and his family move to some catchall Asian country (I suppose you can take your pick on which one it is) and instead of just enjoying the scenery and living a life of full cultural immersion, sees all the tourists and foreigners getting popped in a cinematically vague "political uprising". I don’t know if this is supposed to mirror current events in any way, but it sure doesn’t paint a rosy landscape for anyone looking to do a little traveling abroad.

The film looks like your standard "escape" genre fare (right down to the name, which hopefully isn’t literal or else the flick’s over before it starts). Wilson and his family appear to maneuver from one plan to the next, each one foiled by the "big bad" right before salvation. I think we can figure out how it ends (or else it’ll be crazy depressing), which makes me less inclined to ever really want to see it. Honestly, and this probably isn’t fair but whatever, all I could think about during the trailer was "I think I’ll go back and watch Argo."

Director John Erick Dowdle’s resume is in action/ thriller genre and some of his movies which probably should have been bad Quarantine (58%) and Devil (52%) weren’t total messes. That’s at least kind of a good sign for this one. He does have a bomb on his record with As Above, So Below (26%), so he doesn’t always trend toward the middle. I think this latest finishes somewhere in between.
