Two would-be thieves forge a surprising relationship with a housesitter when they accidentally trap themselves in a house they just broke into.

"A Bad Idea Gone Wrong" is like a decent late-night supper thrown together with random items from the back of the fridge and a cupboard or two. It can be a nice surprise, but show up too hungry and you might be left wanting.

First-time filmmaker Jason Headley, directing from his own screenplay, keeps his concoction moving briskly and humorously, with a light sprinkling of acceptably sweet sentimentality here and there.

The screenplay consistently produces moments that induce chuckles, if not belly laughs. There's also just enough well-earned sentiment thrown in to provide a nice counterpoint to the farcical humor.

4.5/10

A slightly entertaining, yet ultimately forgettable, affair.

2.5/5

Unfortunately, the film's situation and dialogue fail to push A Bad Idea Gone Wrong successfully across the finish line. It's situation just doesn't feel dangerous enough.

B

This little would-be heist comedy proves an engaging trifle-nothing more than an extended sitcom, but a pretty good one.

Really bad. Not funny. Rarely will I not finish a movie, and I didn't finish this one.

It's funny enough for a viewing and even has a nice little love story to revolve around, but it's just too stupid to be called good.

I suggest a new title for the movie: "A Bad movie gone wrong". Actually I dunno how the movie ends, and where has it gone wrong, cause I havent watched it longer than 20 mins. It's a dumb american humor, only retards laugh to these jokes. There isnt much to talk about this movie, its stupid and boring, however one should be worried about 100% tomatometer, it's totally incomprehensible how this movie can get 100% rating. what is happening with this world?

I came across this film knowing nothing about it and as such, I had no expectations. I am happy to say that it was a very enjoyable, light-hearted comedy with some emotional surprises thrown in the mix. It being an indie film makes it all the better. The plot is original and though predictable, a good one nonetheless. I recommend anyone who has an hour and a half on their hands to give this film a shot, it will not disappoint.
