Trivia
In a 2023 interview with The AU Review, Mel Eslyn spoke about the initial idea for the film: "Mark Duplass pitches me ideas that are always half a sentence and someone has to finish it. But they are always the best first half of a sentence you've heard. He had pitched me an idea along the lines of, 'What if there are the two last men on Earth and they're living in a biosphere and they're obsessed with Mario Brothers?' So we kind of started there, and I thought, 'Well, if the last two people on Earth are men then there's some stuff to dig into.'"

Promising but doesn't get there in the end

It's an interesting premise. The strength of this film is the way the setup and characters back stories are disbursed very gradually, a drip at a time, which keeps your attention. In the end though, the set up doesn't really matter a whole lot.

When the main thrust of the narrative becomes clear, rather than running with it and guiding us towards a memorable conclusion, the film chooses to go with blandness, presumably hoping we take the non-committal ending to be open and courageous, and not simply uninspired.

Good performances, good ideas, good direction. The story was just a little too weak for me.
