Becky (2020) Review

Directed By: Jonathan Milott & Cary Murnion

Starring: Lulu Wilson, Kevin James, Joel McHale

Synopsis: Spunky, rebellious 13-year-old Becky (Lulu Wilson) is brought to a weekend getaway at a lake house by her father Jeff (Joel McHale) in an effort to try to reconnect after her mother’s death. The trip immediately takes a turn for the worse when a group of convicts on the run, led by the merciless Dominick (Kevin James), suddenly invade the lake house. Becky, not daddy’s little girl anymore, decides to take matters into her own hands.

Review: Becky is already an instant memorable classic. Think what an R-rated Home Alone would be like and you have Becky.

Kevin James is perfectly cast as Dominick the menacing villain. Usually we see Kevin James in family comedies being a down on his luck buffoon, here he is a cold bloodied ruthless killer and his portrayal of Dominick is frighteningly memorable.

Becky wastes no time in getting the story moving and very fast paced. Lulu Wilson plays the part of Becky very well, the switch from Dennis The Menace to Rambo is awesomely handled.

Fans of gore will love this as this has some gory moments, ones that will make you wince and want too look away.

The movie is badass and I would watch it again! A cult classic in the making.
