5/10
Oddly Worth a Watch
11 April 2023
Welp, I didn't realize this was a horror movie before I started watching. So, the first jump scare really caught me off guard. Once the movie started speeding up, there was no going back! It's a fast-paced fight for survival. Unfortunately, during the 'I want to survive' process, the decision making of some of the characters was inconsistent and irrational. This makes a film much more difficult for me to enjoy.

The acting in this film was questionable. I had trouble believing the emotions that the actors were supposed to be displaying during a few parts. It's very distracting when you have to stop to think 'Wait is that person happy or sad?'.

Multiple times throughout the film, the camera work felt jolty. I understood the philosophy behind this the of camera work, but they didn't execute it well.

While the film had its issues with bad acting, questionable camera work, and terrible decision making from the characters, it was still an enjoyable watch overall. Partially because end of the world/survival movies can easily be high octane. So, it's an 'easy out'. If you are looking for an adrenaline rush, you're in luck. At the very least, this movie will keep you glued to the screen.
