rousenzhou ** before reading - I didn't know which words were 'prohibited' - so I changed everything that might have been thus some sentences sound a little funny - please use your imagination ****** Because thats probably the only thing in this film that cost them money. No but seriously, - long story short, a post-apocalypse film and how all of a sudden the only thing that matters are survival skills and some stuff about role reversal - poor man becomes the rich man due to his survival skills etc. etc. The wealthy couple rightfully owns a farm which the ranch hand steals by force and then the ranch hand steals the man's wife. Honestly, I feel for the wealthy man and really hoped he would just kill the ranch hand which he had every right and opportunity to do. There are so many moments where I was just screaming at the screen telling him to swing an ax or knife at the unsuspecting ranch hand. The whole plot is stupid and does not many any realistic or logical sense. If I were in his situation I'd just kill one of the sheep and eat it. pardon my language - this movie really annoyed me off.But what annoyed me off even more was the OBVIOUS heart that is bleeding blueism **** that is the underlying message of this film. Honestly, in a post-apocalypse world - yes, survival skills, being good at hard manual labor is more valuable than any professional degree - but WE Don't LIVE IN SUCH A WORLD!! Thats why poor people are poor. If I had a ton of copper and tried to sell it to you at the same price as gold with the excuse 'in some hypothetical world copper is the rarest metal and is necessary for the production of the most advanced technologies' would you buy it? NO WAY.So please - get real - and sorry, pardon the blunt nature of my review, but honestly, these movies peeve me.

david-3354 This is quite possibly the worst film I have EVER SEEN.....I read the reviews and thought that as some people had given it 10 out of 10 it would have some substance....how wrong could I be??? After about an hour I seriously thought that I had witnessed the most pathetic loser of a character ever in the history of film making.... The concept of the film is quite good....the actual film and the end product is terrible. I fast forwarded the last quarter of this film because I was laughing so much at how pathetic it was, but felt I really should make it to the end....why did I do that??? The ending is as bad as the rest of the film. There are NO redeeming features of this trash....apart from the initial idea/story which was OK, just a shame the outcome was so bad. Do yourselves a favour and avoid this film like the plague.

mast3rx I knew nothing of this film before I saw it. That said, I did not connect well to it. The concept is sound and makes you think about what would happen in a nation-wide terrorist attack, but the characters and story didn't fit well with this concept. It seems the characters and the battle over the house were threw into the mix to make it more interesting. All the characters have flaws. At one point I got so angry at all the characters, I had to turn it off and take a break - very unusual for me. There are a limited number of characters in the movie, making it look extremely low budget. Normally I don't mind as long as the movie is good... Point I'm getting at is the ending: I literally forced myself to painfully watch the last quarter of the movie just to see how the movie would end - who would die, who would get the house, who would she end up with, etc.. Needless to say, the ending was putrid. Looks to me like they ran out of budget $ at the last min. and ended it abruptly. No closure in any of the main conflicts - but they do it in a way that washes their hands of accountability and leaves it up to the audience. (ie: leaves it open to the audience to think about 'what's next for them...?') Not a good way to end this movie in my opinion. Several hours after seeing the movie I thought to myself 'You still have to finish watching that movie', but then I remembered that I did finish it, but it didn't feel like I did because it was such a poor ending. If I had to do it again, I wouldn't.

phrixion I gave this movie a 5 because the film had decent actors who played believable roles in moments in the film, beat by beat, when situations seemed inhumanly disloyal and emotionally chaotic, they pulled off good scenes consistently. The plot and story itself is loosely constructed around the 3 strong characters who develop throughout the film. Also some of film is simply inconsistently edited and a few scenes appear chopped up out of sequence noticeably. Fortunately, this only happens a few times in the movie, about halfway in and towards the end of the film.Overall, it's worth a watch if you like TV like dramas such as Flight 93/United 93 and similar.
