It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is a terrible movie. The plot doesn't make any sense on any level. Science fiction needs to follow basic logic and this movie wasn't though out at all. What a waste of a good cast.

Its funny whenever I see movies like this I like them and dislike them-I like them because they make you appreciate what you have by seeing a world where people have really not much at all- and at the same time I dislike them because its like the film that was designed to make people in the real world feel happy with less. Neat trick. Anyway, as far as near future movies go this one is basically a good film-the acting is not bad-three cheers for that-and the plot line is also effective. Apparently the robotic donkey is a real device made in Boston. The beginning of the film reminded me vaguely of the first Star Wars movie-the farm in the desert bit I suppose. I cannot remember it ever being in cinemas but I might have just missed it completely when it came out. I bought it after watching it online for free. Worth a look for "hardcore" SF fans-others probably won't find it all that interesting. Not for kids with scenes of violence and some gore.

First off I haven't seen any reviews that mentioned this, but Young Ones was not at all what I expected. I expected this movie to be a dystopian Sci-Fi action movie about tough times in the future, which is actually all kind in the background. This turned out to be for the better.I don't know where the movie was shot, but the visuals were stunning. Everything is desert, rocks, and old buildings (or a house made of ship containers). There's a scene where you do see plants, and the colors are so vivid. Additionally, I very much enjoyed the slow-burn revenge tone of the movie. The movie pacing wasn't slow, but the build up of pain and anger felt so real that I felt as frustrated as Jerome (who I didn't know was the main character until like halfway through the movie). There were some weird plot points that never get resolved, like the fact that there's a perfectly good city nearby where everything seems normal and you don't know why these characters aren't allowed through the gates. Also, that random girl that Jerome meets and kinda likes, but never ends up seeing again? Kinda odd. Also I don't like Elle Fanning after seeing this movie, she just doesn't seem to fit...Overall I enjoyed this movie. It was entertaining to watch, kept my attention throughout, and made me feel for the characters. The oddities in the plot were minor and had little impact on my rating. Watch this movie.

The movie doesn't add much to the sci-fi genre.But, the story can be interesting if you pay a lot of attention. That's one of the major problems with this movie: The story starts in a boring way making it a challenge to keep up watching but it changes it's paste when getting near to the end.At least, the actors did their best to show emotions(which are basically anger & revenge). What i liked a lot was that the movie shows many young actors with potential to make more interesting movies IF they still follow these same styles of films. I somehow feel that this movie could have been much more if the story was developed in a other way. In conclusion, i think this movie was not that bad but neither would i watch it again.
