Darwin

This is one of those insufferable cases where a great idea was executed clumsily, and it seems to be largely due to the format at hand. Other reviewers point out the obvious that this is a story that ultimately could not fit the scope it is intended to (a feature length film). It would make for a great singular TV episode type thing, or a short novel.

Ultimately as a 90 minute movie, it is too light on content and storytelling to maintain itself. It is quite literally the kind of film where you could fade in and out of and not lose step with it as long as you are paying attention to the first and last 15 minutes or so.

It's all very interesting and neat, but that's it.

I wasn't expecting much from this, but it was a surprisingly good little story despite the small cast and small number of locations; it didn't need more. It's also very relevant for the future with everything that's happened in the last two years and the way things are going.

A bit slow going and could have done with a lot more action, but overall not a bad film.

I felt that there should have been more about the back story and maybe a bit more looking at what had happened to the rest of the world.

Worth a watch if your bored, but don't anticipate to much from this film.

It might be hard to get a fix on the real reviews of this movie since there are so many versions out there.

But for the one named 2149: The Aftermath, it's not an exciting movie and it does leave a lot of things unanswered but it is an OK movie.

I can see that some might draw parallels to what is happening now with Covid. Stay inside, let the government take care of you, and other things.

Beef up the response to Covid and it might come close to something like this. The people in the pods would be the pro vaccine/mask people and the people outside would be the no vaccine and mask people.

If your like me and have watched all the SciFi movies on Netflix and prime and stumbled on this one, it's worth a watch. It's not an action packed edge of your seat movie...there's actually no action at all in it. But it is good enough to enjoy. I like the realistic future it paints. Very believable. Just don't be nitpicky about things like oh there hair is done and armpits are shaved yet its suppose to be some hard future living with nothing...it's a movie. Their hair is going to be done and yes, their makeup is also done so cry.
