Diagonaldi Very well executed

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

tjsuf This movie starts out very good, kept me on the edge of my seat. However, it does get a little bit boring three-quarters of the way through, but boy does it finish strong. This is a very good quality movie, and I didn't expect it by looking at the ratings here on IMBd. I recommend this movie, but I love apocalypse style movies.

kosmasp Or in Fear or something along those lines. This movie is about terror, yes, but it's about so many other (personal/human) things too, that I am still amazed by the fact not more people have seen this. It might only have a small budget, play secluded, not have a big cast, but it has everything a movie needs. Heart, drama, a great script with many twists and turns. What more do you need? Nothing.The performances are really great and reliable/believable. You might not agree with everything that is done, but you can understand why everything is happening. And it's not a fun ride, but a really rewarding one. One that might have you devastated by the end of the movie. And that is a good thing, because your relationship with this movie will have gone to another level ... just as relationships tend to do ...

gwible ****SPOILER ALERT**** Let me start off by saying that I have never written a review for a movie: this one was so far flung from reality that I couldn't keep from doing so. In this day and age of terrorism, many seem to feel that this is both a realistic and plausible storyline. Many in this day and age are naïve. For those, this movie rates above 5 stars; for those with any clue, this movie doesn't even rate.A high yield explosion that is considered "dirty" would contain radiological material, though a layman (or the media) may reference, albeit mistakenly, a contaminated explosive as a "dirty bomb." If a bomb is "dirty" due to a chemical or biological agent, the chemical or biological agent would be quickly eliminated as a result of the heat and blast of the explosion, especially explosions of the magnitude indicated in this movie. Case in point, the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which comprised 15,000 pounds of explosive, was laced with cyanide (a chemical agent). The reason this was of little concern is that the cyanide was destroyed upon detonation. At ABSOLUTE best, there may be some residual contamination in the immediate area (as seen with chlorine laced IEDs in Iraq), but that would be highly limited in effect.Furthermore, the ash created from these explosions seems equitable to that of a volcano, not several explosions. As little Timmy is watching at the fence, it's hard to imagine how so much ash could blanket the city and the surrounding communities. Mount St. Helens, yes; several large explosions in LA, not so much. Before you throw out, "what about the WTC in 2001?" That was primarily dust and debris not ash from fire. Oh, btw, the ash is contaminated? This isn't nuclear fallout, after-all. Although, that is probably the only WMD not bounced around in this movie. Speaking of the ash, it's contaminated with a biological toxin, or was it a chemical neuro-something or other? I think by the end it's some sort of toxin, but wait, toxins take less than a day to take effect when inhaled. Considering Lexi was at ground zero (remember the arm on her lap?) when she was exposed and that the concentration would have been at its greatest, Lexi wouldn't have even come close to seeing her house again, let alone hang out on the porch for 2 or 3 days. On that note, luckily they shipped the meds USPS Priority. USPS? Really? I'll leave the ending alone.For those that know better, yet still feel this movie will at least prove entertaining, please don't.

sacredheartband An interesting idea/premise - well acted and nicely filmed and the end (though not a huge surprise) made for a tense climax. So the beginning set the scene nicely and the final moments were entertaining if a little harrowing, but it was after the initial interaction between the main characters had set the premise for the film it just went flat up until the very end.Shame...If they could've made that period (possibly half of the film) as interesting as the beginning and end it would have been excellent.I must admit, I didn't completely fall for the characters either. Considering the situation they found themselves in it would have been quite easy to want to fight in their corner. I didn't like either of them enough to give a fig!Still, not the worst film I've ever seen - just a little pointless...
