ridiculous rating

Powerful

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The movie has had huge potential, but fails to deliver due to it's limited format and (probably) budget constraints.In the beginning, hints are being dropped that peoples "balls were rotting off", adding gravity to the pregnancy, the whole movie revolves around. Unfortunately, there should have been more emphasis on communicating that vital plot detail for the movie to make sense.I liked the characters a lot, and I think - aside from the wonky routine the twins show in the end - the overall acting is good. There just wasn't more in the script.Aside from the badly communicated plot, the movie suffers from a huge pacing problem. It just crawls along, doesn't build much tension, and then all of a sudden tries to climax with 15 minutes of run-time left.This could - of course - be something that probably works great on stage, but translates quite poorly onto film. I'm also curious if much of the movie's problems couldn't be solved by a different cut, but we might never find out.Anyway - if you happen to like post-apocalypse as a genre, and feel the need to have seen everything on the subject, this is - by far - not the worst movie you'll come across.

A 3.5 rating goes to those films that have acting from a high school play, crappy special effects, and a weak story. This film may be a bit slow, but it's not overly so. The acting may not be Hollywood, but it's rather decent. The bad rating is probably in part because it's not an action film. This is more a 'day in the life' story. As they say; 'combat is 90% boredom and 10% shear terror', and so this story goes. The bad rating might also be because the bad guys story isn't strong and distinct, with each character not fully fleshed out. This makes the overall story weak. Add in the slow pace and there you have it..Generally it was interesting, and it deserves at least a 5.3 rating.

This is one of those films I'm glad I took the "risk" and decided to watch no matter how many poor reviews were on this site. I'm learning to be suspicious when a movie'a been rated by as few as 100 people, let alone 22!I love post-apocalyptic movies for how they envision humanity will survive. That's the gist of this film.I've seen a lot of Hollywood movies with tons of effects and absolutely no story; of course "2012" comes to mind. The effects were lots of fun but what a disappointment "story"-wise. Why even waste the money if there's no story?Here is a film with basically no effects that I found very satisfying for the storyline, the acting and interactions between the characters.Parts were nebulous, but that added to the story; it mixed things up a bit.So overall very entertaining and a great use of my time.I recommend it.

I vote level 1 for this movie for I cannot vote any less. This movie is worse than anything you have ever seen as "movie" This is not a movie, this is a disaster! Not only a waste of time but a great insult to the art of cinema!I request only one thing from Mr.Torres and his accomplices: PLEASE do not make any movie or any other production in the future. That will be your BEST contribution to the art of cinema and world audiences will like you better if you do not appear in credits at all.Geez, I cannot believe I had to write a commentary on such a waste but I guess it's my civic duty to warn other cinema fans.
