Forgive Us All

Perhaps watch this as a nature show, with some great locations and great beauty (although the sepia filtering made it look like a 50s spaghetti western.

But the storyline is extremely weak, there's no buildup of characters, it struggles to provide continuity of the story, and indeed didn't even explain what the premise of the story was for a long way into the movie.

Perhaps it was trying to be a slow burn - but scenes that appeared to add nothing to the story dragged on for ages.

Most of the cast appear to be very early in their careers, and did reasonably given the material they had to work with. But no outstanding acting even by the more seasoned actors.

I'd strongly recommend not wasting your time with this.

This could actually have been really good. Some great actors and stunning scenery. Richard Roxburgh is as per always brilliant.

BUT an overriding yellow,or sometimes green, tint and that poor horse stabled with its bridle on (that's just lazy). Bombastic music seems to be a thing at the moment. Overall it fees like an overfunded student film.

Better luck next time.

I was hyped for this movie because the poster of the movie looked good and plus I didn't read any reviews for this film which was my first mistake with the second mistake that I watched the whole movie expecting some horror action, but oh boy was I wrong!

The first 5 min was brilliant in terms of what you would expect from such a movie and then turns into some boring TV soap drama set in the outback of Australia.

Filmography was good in some scenes and others not so good with the green tint making it look dark in some scenes which strained my eyes.

The lines dished out by the actors were dull and uninspiring making it a hard to watch.

I couldn't invest in any care of the characters and would have been happy to see them die a lot earlier but nope never happened.

Is this the most boring zombie movie ever?

Yes would be my reply and if I could give this naff movie a zero out of ten I would have in truth.

Avoid it like a real plague folks because this movie sucks goats balls!

Without having heard about this movie, I opted to give it a chance since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen. I only knew what little information that the synopsis provided, not that it really mattered.

Writers Jordana Stott, Lance Giles and Alex Makauskas put together a fair enough script, and there certainly were some interesting enough aspects to the narrative here and there. But ultimately, the narrative proved to be a bit too bland and the movie sort of stagnated and sort of became boring to sit through. There is no explanation given to the state of the world, and that sort of leaves the audience stumbling about in the dark, trying to make sense of the majority of the setting of the movie.

Of the entire cast ensemble in the movie, I was only familiar with Callan Mulvey, Lily Sullivan and Richard Roxburgh. The acting performances in the movie were fair.

It was not a movie that made use of a whole lot of special effects. But there were some, and they were certainly fair enough, adding to the overall enjoyment of the movie.

Semi-watchable, but hardly a movie that I would recommend people to rush out and spend 93 minutes on watching. Nor is it a movie that will ever grace my screen a second time.

My rating of director Jordana Stott's 2025 movie "Forgive Us All" lands on a four out of ten stars.

This was dreadful. Why even bother with the zombie genre when it's been milked dry a thousand times over? Especially after genuinely strong entries in recent years like The Last of Us. This felt amateur at best-absolutely awful. The zombies were ripped straight from World War Z in how they moved, sounded, and acted. At least try to be original. There wasn't a single new idea here, just a dull, lifeless rehash.

Honestly, stop making films-this isn't for you. Critics will tear this apart. I heard it was self-funded, which makes sense-if they'd pitched this to a studio they would've been laughed out of the room. Maybe a producer could've at least salvaged the story.

Zombie movies now come with a bar of expectation, and this failed in every single respect. I can easily see this sinking below 20% on Rotten Tomatoes.
