Bokeh

I had such high hopes for this movie loved the thesis. I dragged my entire family into the playroom one Sunday night to watch this and my mistake was not reading the rating or the reviews beforehand. Suffice to say my movie cred has been dragged way down my making my family suffer through this.

My views of this movie is well said by earlier reviewers with the title "Postapocalyptic boredom" and "post apocalypse without soul" , so won't repeat these reviews.

My conclusion is that there was a fantastically creative person at the Iceland Tourism Bureau, who sponsored this, as the movie was just very bad but made me want to visit Iceland.

Not every movie has to be filled with explosions and narrating the story for you. I read other reviews that this movie was boring, but I found it alluring. It reflects life, in the sense that not everything has answers and the viewer is never given the answer as to what happened to cause the apocalypse and you are left to watch it unfold. Instead of focusing on getting the viewer to form an opinion on the characters through background or becoming emotionally attached, you are viewing the unfolding as if you just woke up one day and followed them, without getting to ask questions, just silently documenting these strangers you know nothing about. It forces your mind to make up your own narrative about them, hence the quietness of the movie itself, just like a real apocalypse scenario would be if you were to watch 2 people like a fly on the wall. Why would they talk about things they already know about eachother? They've been in a relationship for some time, so their conversations arent going to fill you in on their personal pasts. I liked this movie because of that. That it focused more on the "now" and not anything else. You just tagged along with them silently and i found that fresh and different. And even the ending i found myself immersed in his thoughts as the credits scrolled until it faded. I was still like whaaaaaaat all the way up to the end. I liked how they filmed it, and how they spliced vertain scenes together, i thoroughly enjoyed this film.

While this wasn't the best sci-fi film I've seen, I think it definitely deserves a higher ranking than most of the reviews here give it, which all seemed to be expecting something more stereotypical.

It is not an action film, nor futuristic. There's no threat to overcome, no adversary to face. It aims for realism, to try and connect the viewer to the characters and make them wonder what THEY would do.

If you're after flashy effects and advanced technology, this isn't a movie for you. It shows genuine reactions from two average people who suddenly find themselves alone in the world with no explanation to what happened or why.

A very good film, but not if you're after a cheap thrill.

I've been waiting to see this movie for ages. I saw a trailer over a year ago and thought the concept was amazing, two people who might just be the last two people on Earth. Whoa! Unfortunately, the concept is the best thing about this movie. It starts out great, the scene is set (and the scenery is so good it makes me want to visit Iceland!) and although there are hints at what happens, there is no concrete evidence and no one to ask.

The scene is set for an amazing, independent movie to blow your mind with a message of epic proportions! Alas, the message never appears and you sit through an hour and a half of a couple trying to while away the hours waiting for the inevitable.

I SO wanted to love this movie, but it has no point and no conclusion and after watching the movie, you realise that there is actually no reason for making or watching the movie. If there was something that happened, it would have a point, but there isn't.

The most dramatic part of this movie is its colossal failure. The acting is OK, the scenery is fantastic and the build up is great. Sadly, the film goes downhill after the initial 10 minutes until you are finally put out of your misery when the credits roll.

If you want to watch a movie of this ilk, watch The Blue Lagoon instead as it is a similar concept of solitude, but with characters who have depth and strength.

Sorry Bokeh crew, I was rooting for you but it's a poor movie

I had high hopes for this because the premise seemed interesting and it is filmed in Iceland. Maaan was I wrong. This movie is so dull, Matt O'Leary's acting was terrible, Maika Monroe's character was awfully written, there are some major inconsistencies and the characters and their actions are very unrealistic.
