When this was announced it had Michael Bay's name attached as producer and was supposedly going to be a pandemic thriller. Now I know many people have a disdain for Michael Bay, but I actually think that he brings some visual prowess to his projects however it's clear that his name was only attached for recognition purposes. This is neither anything visually bombastic or anything close to being a pulse pounding thriller. It's a very amateur romantic drama that focuses more on the interpersonal communication between characters as they struggle through the changing times. It becomes increasingly dragging and you just keep asking yourself what the real intent of the overall film really is. Some of the actors are seasoned veterans but are truly underutilized for new or younger actors that are frankly not on par. The production value is that of a cancelled TV series on the big networks as well. Overall this is just a very big failure and definitely not what I was expecting.

It wasn't great but it is a solid 6. I'd lean towards a 7. Wish that I could give it a 6-1/2. The main line is pretty predictable. There are a few interesting twists and the acting is actually pretty good. This is definitely worth a watch. It captures the sense of 2020 into 2021 well. I honestly can't imagine what the world would look like after 3+ years of isolation but this could be a pretty good guess.

Yes this film is pretty simple, but I didnt think it was too bad, I was tempted to give it a 10 to help it average up to a better score. I have seen far worse and I quite enjoyed it, its not a 10 for sure but its a nice easy watch. I think people have given it such bad reviews it seems as they think its 'exploiting the pandemic', so should all war films be banned etc ? Thats just stupid, the backdrop of covid just makes the film relatable to life right now.

This movie was not bad. It's not Oscar material, but it's watchable. It's like one critic ripped it, then others followed suit trying to one-up each other to see who could rip it harder. It's on Hulu for free so just watch it. After I watched it I read an LA Times article about how it was made which makes me appreciate it a little more.

The trailer was interesting. I postponed watching this for two days thinking it will be depressing to watch but finally I watched it and I really liked it. There was attention to detail. Actors did a good job. Production and cinematography is as good as any A movie. There are somethings that were shown in the movie that are actually unfolding as reality now. I liked it so much that I am recommending my family and friends to watch it too.
