Please Don't Feed the Children

1. Stupid plot - Check 2. Bad acting - Check 3. Terrible writing - Check 4. Dumb characters - Check

I watched this flaming pile of dung until the end just to see how bad it could get - it didn't disappoint. Each minute was worst than the preceding minute. It was that bad. How anybody convinced a "studio" to finance this disaster is beyond me.

1. The plot is a mishmash of various horror films rolled into one - just done much worse than any of the originals.

2. The acting is worse than a Hallmark family movie. I'm surprised that the editors let any of this mess out of the cutting room.

3. Not much to say about the writing - banal, brainless, regurgitated crapola.

4. The decisions made by the characters made no sense given the setting in which they were supposed to be living. The thought "Why didn't he/she just do X?" passed though my head at least once in every scene.

Cool premise, really liked the idea and the first half kept my interest for sure. But after that it's just dumb character decision after dumb character decision. The acting is okay too but the writing is so bad in the second half that I almost just turned it off.

It's things like when you're getting attacked or held by gun and don't take the gun or subdue the attacker that really make the last 1/3 unwatchable. I was yelling at the TV multiple times because the kid characters are so insufferable and stupid.

It does have some good acting, the premise is cool and some SFX were good too, but the bad writing ruins the whole thing towards the end. 4.2/10.

First, being the daughter of a great (mostly) director, doesn't mean the progeny will be a great director. Hence this. Does no one who writes a movie, think beyond the premise? This move comes straight from the weak as hell J. J. Abrams/Alex Kurtzman school of film writing. The premise, a disease that kills adults and affects children, well, let's be honest. The Virus of the week film isn't anything new. How it's done, like lets say the 28 series (NOT ZOMBIE MOVIES!) are brilliant, each evolving in a different way. Now, if this virus is so virulent, how has anyone survived it? (First mistake). The movie doesn't know what it wants to be; is it horror? Suspense? Where are the monsters? How did Michelle Dockery (who looks and acts like an older version of her character from Downton Abbey, and constantly uses the english term 'Sweets' for candy.) Ditto Giancarlo Esposito. This is just a bad, weak movie that runs on the coattails of the director's name. Weak and poor. I can see why it premiered on Tubi.

No. Just no. One of the worst apocalypse movies ever. The premise was ok, though not much different from every zombie movie I've seen in the past 20 years.

The acting, if you can call it that, is wooden. Each of the 'actors' has maybe three expressions which, apparently, are interchangeable no matter what the emotion. They're all dirty of course, but one of them has different streaks of mud from one frame to the next without any reason.

Why did I even tune in? I got an email promoting this 'great new movie on TUBI starring Michelle Dockery. Was it her or the material she was given, even she couldn't infuse anything good in this movie.

Skip it. Skip the whole thing and watch a classic like "THEM" or the original "Invasion of the Body Snatchers".

The movie started off decent for about a minute, but quickly slowed down and lost direction. It felt like it was trying to build toward something, but never really got there. By the end, I was still wondering what the title even had to do with the story. The acting? Pretty rough-but honestly, that's kind of what I expected from a Tubi original.
