Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
Slettis Action movies bore me. when there are endless explosions etc I find my mind wandering and wanting to be somewhere else. I like a movie that makes you think. "What would I do in this situation?" I won't take time in pointing out flaws or critic-king the acting. In hindsight (spoiler)! this couple could have spent their last few hours/days together holding and comforting each other. Are they the only ones to have marital problems? No. Yet one of them hangs onto the notion that they could survive. Can I live without you? When it comes down to decision making, and that is what this movie is all about, people tend to choose life. This movie is also about time and love. What would you do or say when you know you have a limited amount of time left with your loved one. Do you say "It's been good to know you!" No, you would make small talk, just like in this movie. How do you say good buy when the person you love is just on the other side of the plastic? Spoiler!!!! she does ultimately kill him trying to save herself... but she will end up dying too so they both keep that survival instinct.
Riftmann A great start, but moves into a boring, predictable poorly scripted, poorly acted mess. The reactions of the people are realistic for the most part, it's the science behind the whole premise that is bad. Dirty chemical bombs? Biological bombs? Dirty bombs are radioactive waste spread by explosion. Chemical and Biological agents would be hurt by explosions not spread. For a low budget movie the effects of the start are good. The acting and realism of the character's actions are good, but then it all goes down hill very rapidly. I have a hard time believing that other reviewers were actually scared by this movie. It enters a surreal, 'twilight zone' predictable last half, which wouldn't be so bad if it was trying for realism. Without spoiling things, I figured out the 'surprise' ending half way through the movie, or maybe sooner than that... I suppose people that like this sort of thing would appreciate the movie more than I did, but the flaws ruined it for me... I can't really fault the bad script, bad acting, since it was such a low budget attempt, but just too many logical unrealistic errors...
gwible ****SPOILER ALERT**** Let me start off by saying that I have never written a review for a movie: this one was so far flung from reality that I couldn't keep from doing so. In this day and age of terrorism, many seem to feel that this is both a realistic and plausible storyline. Many in this day and age are naïve. For those, this movie rates above 5 stars; for those with any clue, this movie doesn't even rate.A high yield explosion that is considered "dirty" would contain radiological material, though a layman (or the media) may reference, albeit mistakenly, a contaminated explosive as a "dirty bomb." If a bomb is "dirty" due to a chemical or biological agent, the chemical or biological agent would be quickly eliminated as a result of the heat and blast of the explosion, especially explosions of the magnitude indicated in this movie. Case in point, the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which comprised 15,000 pounds of explosive, was laced with cyanide (a chemical agent). The reason this was of little concern is that the cyanide was destroyed upon detonation. At ABSOLUTE best, there may be some residual contamination in the immediate area (as seen with chlorine laced IEDs in Iraq), but that would be highly limited in effect.Furthermore, the ash created from these explosions seems equitable to that of a volcano, not several explosions. As little Timmy is watching at the fence, it's hard to imagine how so much ash could blanket the city and the surrounding communities. Mount St. Helens, yes; several large explosions in LA, not so much. Before you throw out, "what about the WTC in 2001?" That was primarily dust and debris not ash from fire. Oh, btw, the ash is contaminated? This isn't nuclear fallout, after-all. Although, that is probably the only WMD not bounced around in this movie. Speaking of the ash, it's contaminated with a biological toxin, or was it a chemical neuro-something or other? I think by the end it's some sort of toxin, but wait, toxins take less than a day to take effect when inhaled. Considering Lexi was at ground zero (remember the arm on her lap?) when she was exposed and that the concentration would have been at its greatest, Lexi wouldn't have even come close to seeing her house again, let alone hang out on the porch for 2 or 3 days. On that note, luckily they shipped the meds USPS Priority. USPS? Really? I'll leave the ending alone.For those that know better, yet still feel this movie will at least prove entertaining, please don't.
Neil Welch Unemployed musician Brad is at home when terrorists set off a dirty bomb in LA, where wife Lexi works. Brad manages to seal up the house against the clouds of toxic dust: Lexi manages to struggle home through the chaos and Brad, following instructions, won't let her in.This small scale movie is quietly horrifying on both personal and impersonal levels as Brad and Lexi start to come to terms with what has happened and its likely consequences. There is a twist which is, frankly, both unbelievable and unnecessary but, putting that to one side, there is an air of credibility surrounding this claustrophobic drama.It is quite well written, well performed and directed, and moderately gripping. But it is not likely to leave you with warm fuzzy feelings afterwards.
