Year 10 - Sopravvivenza letale

No pun intended - not sure if this sprang from the pandemic. Actually probably many things - and while the (dystopian) future is a quiet place ... it is not like the one you may think of.

People can be mean and crazy ... and there are quite a few examples in this one. Not sure what to think of the ending - or where it ends up. But the road to get there is quite nice - well anything but. Still .. good to watch or interesting ... if you suspend your disbelief and give this some slack ... decent acting and cinematography ... the locations also work like a treat ... just don't (b)eat it.

Shoked to see the rating , how on earth this movie is 5 rated ? .it's such a film that after few years people are going to call the masterpiece.acting is so par level , direction superb and not a single dialogue in entire movie makes it authentic.creators are so right about the homo sapiens evolution if things go wrong .

Pros 1. Screenplay 2.strong visual story telling 3.not for faint hearted 4. Raw 5.simple plot makes authentic 6.acting 7.creative

No cos at all Some movies stick to you and shaken you upside that's this movie for me , insane .

Thanks creators ,actors and cinematographer for their par excellence work ..thank you team .

Year 10 is a survival horror movie set in some post apocalyptic Britain of the future.

Written and directed by Ben Goodger. It is in essence a morality tale. One family seeking to look out for each other.

Another family who have succumbed to cannibalism and the survival of the self. At the expense of anyone else.

Jake (Toby Goodger) is the young man who has lost his father to the cannibals. Not before the father placed Luke and the girl somewhere safe but smelly. The girl is injured and needs medication which is now in the hands of the cannibals.

Jake needs to get hold of the medicine. Although it seems he too has been ruthless in the past.

The movie seems to be inspired by films such as The Road, Threads and A Quiet Place. There is not much dialogue which can be problematic. The music does not always compensate.

Despite its low budget. Year 10 might actually have something to say about what is happening in today's polarised society.

The story of this post-apocalyptic thriller is rather one-dimensional: a young guy follows the path of the (cannibalistic!) thugs that killed his father, there's a lot of running and chasing and harsh fighting, before we get to a satisfying closure. But it's nonetheless pretty involving, the pace is for most of the time high, with a fair amount of suspense and action, and you more and more root for the main character, hoping to see him get awarded for all his tireless efforts.

It's obviously a low-budget production: the settings hardly vary, there are just of few actors, and no special effects or CGI (as far as I could see), and there was certainly no need for a dialogues coach, because there aren't any dialogues. I have no idea why not, it impressed me as an arty director's whim, for why would all surviving mankind within 10 years after the apocalypse loose their ability to speak?! But to be honest, after some 20 minutes you get used to it and don't miss it anymore.

The young hero is played by Toby Goodger. Since the director is Ben Goodger, they are probably brothers, or at least family. According to IMDb Ben Goodger made a short movie in 2010, called "Coming of Age", with as synopsis: "A young boy battles with new responsibilities in a brutal post-apocalyptic future". So apparently the premise of this full length feature already originated 15 years ago. And guess who the main actor was in 2010: young Toby Goodger! And I have to say, that the mature Toby Goodger in 2024 looks awesome, he has a great screen presence, and he did an absolutely fine job in his difficult and very physical role.

Think 1984 "Threads" (YES People would lose their language, Long term PTSD will do that) Also this reminded me of."The Survivalist" 2016, which is excellent if you haven't seen it. Others have said "The Road" and its true it is like that movie a little bit.

I also wondered why they were not hunting dogs, there sure were a lot of dogs for eating The acting in Year 10 is excellent , the production is low tech , and its low budget film making at its finest. Its also well directed.

Give this director $5million and he could really produce.

Its gritty, suspenseful and not cheesy at all I really liked it.
