Amber Alert (2012)
1/10
Wasted $3.99
11 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I wish we could get our $3.99 rental fee back. The fact that we paid to watch it is the only reason we made it to the end.

We had high hopes as the trailer was intriguing and we enjoy "found footage". However the acting and character actions from the time they spot the car on was SO extremely frustrating, it became completely unbelievable. The few times we thought they were finally going to do something believable, nope.

The storyline had serious potential in my personal opinion. HERE ARE my "10 reasons my eyes were bleeding" in no particular order: 1. If you are following an Amber Alert car, CALL THE POLICE INSTEAD OF ARGUING OVER WHAT TO DO.

2. If you are following an Amber Alert car, STAY ON THE PHONE WITH POLICE.

3. If you are following an Amber Alert car and a cop starts trying to pull YOU over, tell the 911 operator immediately. You could do that if you were ON THE PHONE WITH POLICE.

4. If you are following an Amber Alert CAR and they pull over in a well populated area, use your phone to relay information to the police. Do NOT use it to communicate with people in your car as you attempt recon.

5. STAY IN YOUR CAR.

6. I'm on the fence about the mic in car. If you are going to listen to pedo convo, use that info wisely.

7. If the Amber Alert car pulls over, keep going.

8. If you are going to pull over and engage in conversation, remember that you literally just eaves dropped and pedo is feeding you bs.

9. If you are going to break in an "abandonded" house upon hearing/seeing pedo leaving on an errand and you find his arsenal, grab them and take them with you.

10. The repetitive car argument scenes left me wanting to slap a kitten. (Not literal, PETA!)
