The palette of sludge and gravel doesn't help and the performances represent no one's best here, although it's nice to see Rhys Meyers back in action after some decidedly low-profile movie roles.

Rated: 2/5

Rhys Meyers does his best to make Ben a relatable hero. But the storylines showing us his past and present never mesh in a way that tells anything interesting or unique about him.

Rated: 2/5

Absolutely nothing redeeming about this dreary drudgy slow boring saturated with lame flashbacks. Worst movie I've seen in a long time.

Poorly written and staged action scenes sink this mediocre post-apocalyptic movie.

If you've been too happy lately and need a downer to balance you out then definitely consider watching this movie. If you know the John Malkovich's stereotypical roll as a wierdo, sadistic bad guy then you essentially know what this movie is about. Just rolling depression with no redeeming factors. In the end the good guys kill all the bad guys. The in their infinite wisdom decide to leave the bucolic place they defended where they can hunt for food an grow crops to survive and head out on the road searching for who knows what in the pandemic racked, distopian world that now exists. It's too late for me but save yourselves. Don't watch this move.

Agonisingly dull, filled with pointless exposition from excellent actors acting badly and not so great actors apparently wandering in and out of shot trying not to look too bored. Awful script, an embarrassing potboiler for Jon Malkovitch. Unbelievable set-pieces and the feeling that everything was being made up on the spur of the moment by the whole cast at once with no aim but breaking for coffee soon enough to avoid falling asleep from boredom. And boredom. Did I mention boredom? 22 minutes in and I've stopped twice already just to check out a couple of vans on autotrader. Boring. Bored, bored, boring bored. Turning it off now before it goes further downhill. Sh^te.
