I came home from work and picked up my package of DVD's I ordered online, one of them of course was THE EVADING, so I got it open, put it in my player and started watching, when I was finished with it my reaction was that this was a good concept dragged through the mud, the concept for the first half kept my interest but then things take a bizarre twist and I figure, what was actually the point? Keep people guessing about what's going on, then throw in a so called twist ending that doesn't even put things in perspective? The film's actors also seemed a little dismal at times especially Eric Stevens, who plays the lead character who suffers from depression after the loss of his wife and pretty much keeps that same depressed look on his face throughout the film, the one cast member that showed some acting talent was the little girl who played Carla (I don't remember her real name) she actually tried to act decent and looked pretty creepy at times being so quiet.
Overall, the writer and director needs to go back to film school, and Eric Stevens needs happy pills or should try and get more sleep because this was really disappointing.
