A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
I love apocalyptic movies, and thought this would be a winner with Forest Whitaker. Alas, the only compelling thing about this movie was wondering what was causing the apocalypse, and this is left a mystery. Otherwise, the movie is full of plot holes. They drive 2000 miles in a Cadillac on (I think) maybe 2 and half tanks of gas, and it takes them six days to do it? And only encounter half a dozen vehicles that entire way? If they were so desperate for gas, couldn't they have siphoned some out of gas tanks at a gas station, or any number of vehicles that HAD to exist somewhere along that trip. And of course, almost everyone they do encounter wants to kill them. A complete waste of 2 hours, and not very enjoyable.
Love Forest Whitaker so I had to watch the movie, but I wish I would not have! It was a bit over dramatic; other than Whitaker's acting the acting was awful; story made no sense; ending was AWFUL! I wish I would have read some reviews before beginning the film. Maybe I would not have wasted my time. So I'm writing this hoping to save someone else the time and effort.
More satisfying to watch paint dry. A miracle that this one even are able to rate.
Few of the characters acting was garbage and cringy to me. they use good looks to compensate and distract the viewer. story ending obviously garbage. its on netflix guys dont expect GREAT but it wasnt a complete waste to me atleast. theres a few moments that are interesting and the film left me wondering what exactly happened to the world in this script.
