Load of rubbish!!

Good concept, poorly executed.

Crappy film

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

4CLOSED is a not-bad psycho thriller from The Asylum, and thankfully one of their movies that wasn't made to rip-off a Hollywood blockbuster; it's much more interesting and fresher as a result. The slim storyline tries to be up to date with the times by featuring a homeowner who loses his home to foreclosure but refuses to get out when the new owners show up. The film is predictable and could have been made twenty years ago; there's absolutely nothing that happens that you won't have seen done elsewhere. However, I did like the cast members who bring something extra to the story. Marlee Matlin's character's deafness is an unusual and sympathetic touch, while James Denton brings his Mr. Nice family guy persona across from DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES. SCREAM's Jamie Kennedy isn't imposing at all as the villain, but he is fun, and Paul Sorvino shows up in a small role.

Oscar winner Marlee Matlin is one of my favorite actresses.She was definitely worthy and deserving of her Academy Award for Best Actress from the 1986 movie Children Of The Lesser God.Too bad that I rarely see of her movies these days.That is why I was fortunate to see her once again when I was tuning in at the Lifetime channel and see her in Foreclosed,also known as 4Closed.Jamie Kennedy,James Denton,Paul Sorvino-stars with Marlee in it.The story of the movie directed by Nick Lyon is about a family who is currently shopping for a new and cheap house and decided to buy on a foreclosed home.Unfortunately,the former owner would not take "no" for an answer and would not want to let go of his previous house.He keeps close to the new owners by life close by.When he could no longer bear not living in it,the former owner apparently happens to be a psychopath and decides to kill each member of the family.He does that through manipulation by setting each one of them with each other.And just like any typical movie from Lifetime,the family eventually finds out and brings the previous owner into justice as always.No question that we have a common storyline here from Lifetime.The only difference is this time the villain could not let go of his former house instead of having someone who could not let go of someone he/she is involved with in an illicit and adulterous affair.But in spite of it,it was nice at least to see the beauteous and talented Marlee Matlin in another fine performance.Added to that,the suspense and thrilling scenes were fair enough for entertainment.

It was amazing watching so many ridiculous scenes in this movie. Right from the start the guy starts killing people that just "disappear" from the story line like they never happened. When you watch a movie you expect to people react to situations just like you would, these people reacted like they were mentally challenged. You spend your whole time thinking: why didn't they do this or that, why can't they tell why all this is happening to them? I mean, you your whole bank account disappear with all kind of strange charges couldn't your first thought would be to call or go to the bank? Nope, they just start arguing about his "gambling" and "drinking" habits. Anyway i just finished watching since i had it taped and was able to fast forward at the end.

I decided to watch the film after seeing the trailer and seeing that it starred 2 famous actors that I had seen and liked in TV shows (James Denton as Mike in Desperate Housewives, and Marlee Matlin as Melody in Switch at Birth).Although initially the storyline is slightly more original (a family buy a house sold as a bank foreclosure - but the previous tenant refuses to let it go) the suspense lead up and progression of the storyline was far too predictable. Also I felt like the acting by the other actors was pretty sub-par, but this might have been a bad script. Either way, I was cringing throughout. This film was an easy watch, and the storyline was quite original, but had no strength and nothing to keep me gripped. I would not bother to watch again.
