Violento 'thriller' de venganza, con un toque de comedia negra, en el que el padre de Becky, una adolescente que perdió hace un año a su madre, decide llevarla a unas vacaciones en una cabaña al lado de un lago junto a su nueva pareja y al hijo de ésta. La tensión familiar pasa a un segundo plano cuando un grupo de convictos neonazis asalta el lugar. (Movistar+)

An inoffensive home invasion flick in the style of Home Alone, with Kevin James playing a Nazi (he will hopefully get a prequel set in prison) and a believable Lulu Wilson, who will be on a rampage in Wick 5 in a few years. A quartet of prisoners manage to escape from a transporter and break into the house where Becky is spending the weekend with her father and his new girlfriend, but Becky is cunning and imaginative and gives them a good kicking. It's an inoffensive one-off that doesn't really impress with anything, though the murders are imaginative (pencils, ruler, key) and the actors make it easy to watch. Story**, Action***, Humor>No, Violence***, Entertainment****, Music***, Visuals***, Atmosphere***, Suspense***. 6/10.

Después de que Becky consiga echar abajo los mayores clichés del género desde el principio (incluyendo numerosos flashbacks al triste pasado de la protagonista), uno espera que el posterior allanamiento de morada la redima. Inútilmente. Lo que sigue es una gris acumulación de todas las escenas y motivos que se han visto en infinidad de otros thrillers, pero aquí están prácticamente injustificados. En primer lugar el esbozo de la motivación de los malos es completamente aleatorio y sin uso, pero sobre todo la revelación (digamos que no revelación) de su objetivo concreto es francamente molesta. Igual que ver a Lulu Wilson tratando de jugar con el aspecto de tipa dura y con la rabia maníaca en la fuerza. El potencial de Kevin James en un papel poco convencional para él también está prácticamente sin explotar. Débil.

I really don't understand why the word horror is listed as the genre of every other film. Either the people who decide are weaker than the sphincter of a one-year-old baby with diarrhea, or they are simply incompetent. I didn't find any traces of horror, but it was a surprisingly decent thriller. To be completely honest, I was even considering a fourth star until about halfway through the film, but I forgot about it as the story progressed. It was actually a sort of variation on Home Alone, except that Alone in the Woods was not intended for children's audiences. At least I hope not. Well, anyway, I kind of enjoyed this Chipmunk vs. Bad Guys slasher, even though it had quite a few weaker moments.

The American movie Becky not only features the more-than-interesting transformation of Kevin James but also works brilliantly as a revenge flick. Becky is played by a pretty young girl, and she takes down some pretty big guys. The movie's hype was based around this particular trope, and I thoroughly enjoyed how Becky portrayed it. The move’s great use of gore was just the icing on the cake.
