The Aggression Scale (2012)

Starring: Dana Ashbrook, Ray Wise, Derek Mears, Fabianne Therese
Director: Steven C. Miller

Premise:
A mob boss hires a group of hitmen to find his missing money. The search takes them to a rural country house and a family where the kids fight back.

My Take:
A fun, minor twist on an old story make this an entertaining watch. It is a tad unbelievable that professional hitmen would get bested by a mental unstable teenager. But's that part of the charm. And I really enjoyed the cast too.

Rating: In the middle
