The Last Survivors Audience Reviews

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Larry A. Tilander This movie has one of the most lame plots that I have ever seen. People are living in a valley somewhere where it hasn't rained in four years and some nuts thinks it is his valley so he is killing everyone. There is no hint to explain why it hasn't rained in four years, why the people don't just leave the valley or where the government services went. The acting is neither good nor bad; there just isn't much of an opportunity to really act. The scenery is desolate and the buildings are pretty much just ratty abandoned shacks. The camera work and technical stuff is good, but just a waste of time. Hopefully we'll see those involved show up in a more interesting plot somewhere down the line.
William Dickey The last survivors otherwise known as The Well I discovered endlessly searching for something new on Netflix. The poster of this movie is horrible, it's like the distribution company is trying to market it as a teen survival movie ala Hunger Games, Maze Runner. This film is nothing like that. It's a slow burn indie film about a horrible future where there is hardly any water. The cast is made up of teenagers and even children. I found this aspect of a survival post apocalypse movie to be quite interesting. We know that these children didn't have a chance to be children. The situation demanded for them to grow up and learn how to survive. The Villain is typical megalomaniac attempting to purge everyone from stealing his water by going to farm to farm killing almost everyone. The hope in the film comes from looking for a distributor cap for a small airplane so they can leave and go, um… Not sure where they're going? We know nothing of the world except from this localized desert. This movie has a lot of flaws, some ify writing mixed with some plot twists that may not fully satisfy. However the movie, for what it is, is very good and entertaining. I cared for the characters and wanted to know what was going to happen. What happens in the end may not amuse everyone, but I found it to be pretty solid. For a movie I've never heard of I was quite impressed.
TxMike Maybe the writer/director is a wannabee Quentin Tarantino, taking this post-apocalyptic setting with stranded teenagers to ward off the plan of a murderous water baron. The difference is Tarantino's scripts are always semi-serious, but this script is dead serious and the kids end up having to shoot and hack a bunch of adults to death. That to me really detracts from an otherwise fine effort.A bit over three years ago I saw a very mediocre Christmas-themed movie but I recall the one highlight was a very young actress named Haley Lu Richardson. She had a good role in that earlier movie and I was anxious to see how she has progressed, nearing the age of 20 but still a teenager.She plays Kendal, a very confident and self-sufficient girl in the Oregon desert (actually filmed in California's Mojave desert). It hasn't rained for about 10 years, all the homes are just shells of their former forms, people are trying to get any water from the drying wells. Kendal wants to escape the desert and her hope is they will find a suitable replacement for the broken distributor cap of the small airplane's engine. She searches among all the wrecked and abandoned cars and trucks she can find. As her own meager water well is just about dry.She shares her space with teen Booboo Stewart as Dean. They have made a small room in the corner of the attic so that they will not be found by searchers. It isn't clear to me what their relationship might be but near the end they kiss so he must be a boyfriend. But he is dying of kidney failure and the lack of water just exacerbates the problem.The big problem is a water baron who is using water scarcity to usurp all the properties for himself, and resorting to point-blank shooting of people he considers excessive. This is the enemy that Kendal must finally eradicate to assure their safety, and hopefully find a repair part to allow them to fly out of the valley and to a more hospitable place.Saw it at home on Netflix streaming.
StonescapeLamps22 I enjoyed this movie on a few levels. The young lead did a great job in her acting (a lot of it non verbal) and action - that shotgun seemed a part of her at times. One thing I didn't like was (and this happens in a lot of movies) when our lead actor takes out some bad guys she always left their weapons with them - a thing that bugs me especially when resources are short. Anyway, in this age of a ton of lousy first to video movies, this one set itself apart by actually having some decent action, acting, writing and photography - stark but beautiful. A movie that I can tell the actors and producers put a lot of effort into. Hopefully it will make enough money to increase the production funds for these young movie makers to make some more and even better movies - we sure need them. Signed, Thirsty For More!
