Review of Windfall

Although the movie is pure suspense right from the beginning, there were moments when I sensed this could be one of those comedy-thrillers. It took me a while to accept Jason Segel (from "How I Met Your Mother" fame) in this dramatic criminal role. When he yells at the CEO (Jesse Plemons) to sit down, I truly felt he was on the verge of yelling "Sit Ted!!" or "Sit Barney!" Lol. My favorite moment in the movie was when the three of them were watching 'Three Amigos'. The wife and Jason Segel were seen cracking smiles and laughing while CEO Plemons stayed stoic. I had to rewatch the ending to fully understand where the writers were going. And I got it. And all in all, not a bad ending. I give the movie a 6. Not the best home invasion movie I've seen, but it's still worth a watch.
