I have to disagree with the majority of the reviews of this movie suggesting that it's wonderful, good, or even average. It is terrible. It's as if it is trying to gain the critical success of The Road by jumping on its coat tails, yet with none of the story writing, cinematography or acting skills.
The story writing is dull, shambling and disjointed. The acting ranges from wooden to just plain awful. The poor camera work and almost constant, low-contrast, low-impact black and white (why does the apocalypse always seem to affect the colour processing part of our brain?) really don't help things. The result is a film that is pretty much impossible for the viewer to invest in and leaves you craving something good to watch just to counter it.
