Prepper

Wow. This movie is soooooo bad I can't give it any stars. A liberal couple (teachers no less, in Texas) blindly learn how to become preppers. The don't do any research, read books or even Google "How to prepare..." they just bounce between people that give them mostly terrible, and dangerous advice. I'm halfway through this infomercial movie and had to slam it... this movie must have been written by liberal producers for a liberal audience. I highly recommend to NOT watch this movie and Not follow this information in it. If you do, you will end up getting "clapped" and be the first to go in an SHTF situation. First day.

I am absolutely befuddled by this movie. Who invested the time and money to make this thing? At times I was sure it was satire, but the punchlines never came. I thought it was mocking preppers, but it never carried through. There was little good advice, and a lot of poor examples, including in gun handling. It really looked and sounded like a high-school production. There may be better uses for your time.

I almost stopped shortly after it started. The acting wasn't great, especially the secondary characters. The writing wasn't great. The camera work again wasn't great but the two main characters and the premise made me want to see where it went. I am glad I did. It was a good story with a good message. Even half way through I was thinking the whole movie was just going to be a pointless collapse but it took me along for a ride to a good conclusion. Don't go into this expecting big budget, award winning acting or writing but well worth watching to me.

Zero actual research went into writing this disaster. At no point did anyone in the film think to pick up a book or even google "how to prepare for..." and it it obvious the the writers didn't either. The scenes in the gun store and at the firing range would have made anyone, who ever actually had handled a firearm, run in fear for their life of a negligent discharge if they ever found themselves at places like this. Just enough bad information to make sure you die early in a SHTF situation to limit your suffering.

Weird lines that the actors have over memorized or are reading from a teleprompter.
