Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

This is a bad movie. But I think this is how America would be if it was ran entirely by women. They'd just burn it down and leave.

While the premise has been done it still seemed like an interesting watch. However, it takes such a "realistic" view of what would happen in this post-apocalyptic scenario that it teeters very heavily on the side of boredom. So much more could have happened and been covered but instead they spent long periods of time showing people staring off in the distance just dealing with their situation/feelings. Simply think about what it would be like and that's what you saw. Boring and plain.

I'm a sucker for apocalyptic movies, and when this popped on my Amazon Prime queue I was like, oh yeah!Just think of the incredible catastrophe of a world with... no electrical power. Ooooh. How scary. The movie starts with a dreadful whiny song in the background and some pretentious dancing of one of the characters.Then power goes out, people do stuff.Then idiot dad gets himself killed while cutting wood.Then the girls argue. The dancer dances to a metronome. They argue. They eat berries.A boyfriend appears, and they start an astonishing road trip from west to east coast! Whooo---apocalyptic road trip. No wait. It doesn't happen. Girl goes back to her sister, dude continues on.Then they argue. They eat stuff. And she dances to whiny music. And stuff.I have an idea how to make this a true apocalyptic thriller - JUST FORCE PEOPLE TO WATCH IT AND MOST WILL KILL THEMSELVES.I've been playing whiny songs and dancing pretentiously so I can improve my health and recover the 1 1/2 hours I lost watching this garbage.

Seriously, in the ending I was like WTF, DUDE!? After delivering the baby, walking to the house in the rain, she decides to burn it down? I thought she was displaying a case of postpartum psychosis and wondering what is her sister gonna do about that... And what does she do? She agrees that the best option, with her sister's baby just having been born, is to burn the house and go live inside a tree bark while it's raining and doesn't look like it's gonna stop? WTF!?The movie was OK, performances OK, premise OK. What happens to our civilization if (when) we lose power and communications? How do we survive, having lost all our survival skills (or never even being learnt)? The film deals with issues such as human nature, people robbing and raping each other in case of a catastrophe, instead of helping out and joining forces.I feel like the most sensitive topics, like how do you preserve food and how do you grow food and how do you prepare food and how do you survive winters when there's no food around and... basically anything that's about survival has been left out. How do they survive 15 months in the forest? There only so much berries in the forests and they're not even there for the entire year... Though, they did show how they can (cook and sterilize) berries, which is respectable.All in all, the entire film was overshadowed by the ending. They didn't cover much of survival - OK, I can get over it, films don't have to be about what I expect them to be about - but the ending is a complete and absolute sack of... well you know what. So much from me.
