Homefront (2013 film)

The film, which is based on the novel of the same name by Chuck Logan, stars Jason Statham, James Franco, Winona Ryder, and Kate Bosworth.

[2] Phil Broker, a DEA agent, raids a methamphetamine laboratory owned by Danny T, a biker gang boss, and retires from the agency.

Hoping to expand his influence, Gator and his girlfriend Sheryl tip off Danny T, who sends members of his gang to kill Broker.

As tensions between the two families slowly ease, with Teddy and Maddy becoming friends, Gator warns Cassie to stay away from Broker.

Cassie angrily confronts Gator and demands he release Maddy before accidentally setting off Broker's traps and causing the entire building to explode into flames.

In addition, Marcus Hester portrays Jimmy Klum, Omar Benson Miller plays Teedo, and Chuck Zito appears as "Danny T" Turrie.

The website's consensus reads: "While it boasts a capable cast, the disappointingly dull Homefront hearkens back to classic action thrillers without adding anything to the genre.

[7] Scott Foundas of Variety notes the reliable presence of Statham, but blames director Gary Fleder for "making an incoherent jumble of most of the action scenes".
