Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

GazerRise Fantastic!

BeSummers Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

de_baltz Although the movie seems to have a pro-life undertone, it was quite good. The movie portrays a close-enough-to-realist take on the post apocalyptic genre, without an actual apocalypse. The movie relates emotions and the actresses did a great job.

kosmasp An apocalyptic movie about a family in the forest. I know a couple of friends who completely hated this movie. And there is one scene that is really despicable. When you see it, you'll understand. Some may even say it is completely unnecessary. It is depressing and I guess it was supposed to even further challenge the viewer.Whatever the case, the movie itself is pretty slow and some also might say boring. It is a slow burner, so there is that for starters. And there is really not that much going on. It does have some merits, especially in the family dynamic, but overall there is something missing. The actors do try their best, but it just isn't enough to put this in a really good place.

SnoopyStyle In the near future, Nell (Ellen Page) and Eva (Evan Rachel Wood) are sisters living with their father (Callum Keith Rennie) in the isolated woods. A power outage strikes the country. After 10 days, they drive into town to find no gas and a threatening darkness descending upon the world. The father dies in a chainsaw accident and the girls are forced to deal with the ongoing power outage.I don't want to give Eva an out and dismiss her actions as simple girlie inferiority. There is an issue with a lack of common sense from Eva. I have issues with other characters as well. I don't buy Eli walking to Boston and leaving Nell for a hope for a job. I do buy one thing and one thing only, the chemistry between Page and Wood. These are two solid actresses and they present good work as these characters. They have nice sibling chemistry and the movie flows well from that spring.

cooljmzz The movie was good and believable for the most part. some good survival skill shown could have shown more. Except no attempt to fix leaks on roof then no attempt to rebuild a new shelter or clean and repair the house. When the boyfriend was there could have had him more involved and trying to help. They left many tools and other needed items to go live in a hollow tree. Like they ran out of money to rush the ending. Bad ending
