Linkshoch Wonderful Movie

KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

orangehenryviii This turned out to be a surprisingly good thriller; minimalistic and quick paced, and visually well done. Set in a near-future world devastated by a 10 °C rise in temperatures and blinding sunlight, everything looks very much the part of the post-apocalyptic setting. Good cast, too - Hannah Herzsprung and Stipe Erceg, both stellar in The Baader Meinhof Complex, also do a good job with the sparse dialog here as the desperate protagonists searching for the last of the water. Not your usual Hollywood sci-fi fare with million-dollar C.G.I. and flashy explosions but still taut with enough action to keep you on edge. More reminiscent of the French New Wave Horror movies like Alexandre Aja's High Tension and Xavier Gens' Frontier(s), only this is a much quieter film without all the gratuitous gore.

blakewills-98830 Fantastic movie, abrupt ending, really no ending to speak of. It's actually not fair to call it an ending. There really wasn't an ending. I really enjoyed the movie though. This movie is so hard to find! OMG! I got lucky and found it on ebay for $2 shipped b/c I ordered 20 other movies, ha! A bunch of prepper and business movies. Thanks!

marinettefrutos So i did not have high expectations of this movie, it's what you resort to watching when you've seen close to everything on Netflix. I was pleasantly surprised. I was so sad when it was taken off Netflix. It turned me on my back essential in surprise. People might say its not original, post apocalyptic, and survival wise but i really enjoyed it. It's definitely a good watch.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) If you know a bit about German cinema, you will agree that the 5-year-old "Hell" is not really a film you'd expect to come from Germany. Science-fiction is a rarity in the German-speaking countries, horror and thriller not so much though. The bravery to take on new areas, however, is the only thumbs-up I can give writer and director Tim Fehlbaum here. This is his second full feature film and easily his most known work so far. Eidinger, Herzsprung, Winkler and Erceg are somewhat known in Germany at least and this may be the reason why. It certainly is not the quality of this film. I always thought Hannah Herzsprung was a pretty weak actress, mediocre at best, but sometimes downright bad. Neither the script nor the co-stars are helping much in this post-apocalyptic drama. This is especially disappointing as the setting offers the possibility of a truly atmospheric film. It was not achieved. In the end, I can only say that i am glad the movie does not run for 90 minutes even and if you cut 6-7 minutes of credits, it's really short. This does not have to be negative. It means a film is more essential like that and there is an uncountable number of really good films out there which are very much helped by a low runtime. This is not one of them sadly. The acting, the story and the overall outcome are all fairly underwhelming. Thumbs down and I do not recommend the watch. No idea why this movie scored so much awards attention, even at really prestigious ceremonies like the German Film Awards. I guess, for some people being different means being good. But for you it shouldn't Only worth a watch if you really love the genre. Or then you may be even more disappointed. Better stay away.
