Last Survivors

It is a well crafted effort for a thriller which is burning slow, but eventually gets there.

The acting is very good on part of the three leads (not much to say about the few others who are barely in the picture), the camerawork is fairly good, and the score is lovely. No home-video style shaky camera here, thanks for God. The script develops well if sometimes slowly, it is easy (not too hard) to follow, and the emotions depicted by the leads are more than fine. Drew Van Acker is really there.

Just for the record, I am a neutral watcher of this movie from Hungary with no connection to any of the crew whatsoever, so I'm not making this up just get a higher score for it.

In my opinion, this is a decent thriller / drama for an evening watch. I give it 6.5 out of 10.

Lost momentum once the truth was revealed. Good enough to watch to the end. Not good enough to watch again. The acting was great. The plot missed its mark.

Some great ideas (survivalists / loyalty / desertion) but also faint whiffs of gun control and anti-masculine ideas that seem silly. Silverstone is good - but the last third of the movie falters in making any good points.

I thought it was a good movie. Yes in the middle it was predictable but still a good story. Wish they answered more questions about everyone's past. But I enjoyed the 90 minutes. Kept me entertained and thats all I can ask for in a movie. So it was good. Watch it for what it is.

It's difficult to talk about the film without spoiling its premise, so beware, even if the premise is old, tired and badly implemented, not to mention telegraphed way before the reveal. The problem, though, is that after the reveal, the movie is just plain bad and totally predictable. Alicia Silverstone acts like her character is mentally deficient, which may just as well have been in the script, but I doubt it, Stephen Moyer kind of phones his performance in, while the plot holes are large enough to drop dead deer into. It could have been enjoyable if about a third of the scenes in it would have been deleted and people seemed to care about the production.

Bottom line: just wanted to watch the film because of Moyer and because I've not seen Silverstone in anything relevant in a long time. But it was a mistake.
