    Ebert would have rated it one middle finger up

    Absolutely the worst written, directed and acted movie ever, and that's being charitable. Only redeeming value is the mountain setting, which reminded me of Saylor Park, Colorado where I used to hike.

    Maybe i can produce my own movie then

    I got more then 1600$ saved up, i can go to a junkyard, put a toy on my back and pretend its a post apocalyptic movie...

    This is how insane 2019 has become, anyone can put a movie out there no matter how bad it is.

    And this one a part the cover art that seems good, is a real piece of junk.

    Could have been a short film

    Ugh. This is possibly the slowest film I've ever watched. The core idea wasn't bad, but the execution was terrible. Plot holes and illogical scenes are riddled through the film.

    This one was rough

    Post Apocalyptic movies are one of my favorite genres.

    But man, this was a touch watch.

    So many plot holes, the gun fights are mind boggling, and the stupidity of the main character makes it completely unrealistic that this dude would survive 5 minutes in his environment.

    This movie is just as bad as the video games themselves, and I'd suggest avoiding wasting your time.

    As a time waster, it's a 10 star. As a Post Apocalyptic movie, it's a 0

    Artificially bloated rating, DO NOT WATCH

    At the moment the score for this mmovie is 7/10. Bu thte correc t score should be less than 2/10. I think the makers of this movie is using a click circle or a paid service to boost the ratings.

    This is a horrible movie. do not waste your time watching this. There is nothing, not at least a good story

    • Trivia
      This movie became very famous due to its popularity when the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 Coronavirus disease a pandemic.
    • Goofs
      Dylan's character is wearing 'Fresh,' clothing: this is a design attempt to visually poke-fun at what modern-day youth would be concerned about during a Pandemic scenario.
    • Quotes

      Dylan: Do you even feel bad that your company has killed millions of people?

      S.A.M.: I am unable to have feelings toward any given subject. I am programmed to sympathize with Human's who are in distress or turmoil.

      Dylan: So you're programmed to give me a generic response if I am upset?

      S.A.M.: Human's seem to prefer hearing a sympathetic response in opposed to facts, or in many cases, silence.

    • Crazy credits
      The Supporting Character 'S.A.M.' (Broken Robot), is not credited because it was controlled electronically on set.
    • Alternate versions
      This Film's 'Hulu Version' has been the only variation.
