Last Survivors

Lost momentum once the truth was revealed. Good enough to watch to the end. Not good enough to watch again. The acting was great. The plot missed its mark.

Not great, not terrible, just avoid the trailer before watching the movie, since it delivers all the plot twists beforehand and it partially ruins the experience!

Solid acting by the three main characters, excellent cinematography and locations, definetely worth watching.

JUST AVOID THE TRAILER!

It's difficult to talk about the film without spoiling its premise, so beware, even if the premise is old, tired and badly implemented, not to mention telegraphed way before the reveal. The problem, though, is that after the reveal, the movie is just plain bad and totally predictable. Alicia Silverstone acts like her character is mentally deficient, which may just as well have been in the script, but I doubt it, Stephen Moyer kind of phones his performance in, while the plot holes are large enough to drop dead deer into. It could have been enjoyable if about a third of the scenes in it would have been deleted and people seemed to care about the production.

Bottom line: just wanted to watch the film because of Moyer and because I've not seen Silverstone in anything relevant in a long time. But it was a mistake.

It is a well crafted effort for a thriller which is burning slow, but eventually gets there.

The acting is very good on part of the three leads (not much to say about the few others who are barely in the picture), the camerawork is fairly good, and the score is lovely. No home-video style shaky camera here, thanks for God. The script develops well if sometimes slowly, it is easy (not too hard) to follow, and the emotions depicted by the leads are more than fine. Drew Van Acker is really there.

Just for the record, I am a neutral watcher of this movie from Hungary with no connection to any of the crew whatsoever, so I'm not making this up just get a higher score for it.

In my opinion, this is a decent thriller / drama for an evening watch. I give it 6.5 out of 10.

No idea why the sci fix reference, but I'm guessing the bad reviews are mostly coming from those expecting an alien invasion, bombs, battles, blood and guts.. Basically teenagers with short attention spans.. Yes, it was fairly predictable, but I thought it wasn't bad for a what if scenario.. Nothing unbelievable, tho depending on how many trespassers went missing over the years I think it would have raised enough suspicion that they'd have been caught long before.. That said, the rest was relatively believable and tight enough to maintain a sense of reality.. I do not doubt this has and will continue to happen in the real world, so then this simple movie offers a what if perspective.. The cinematography was good, scenery great, acting surprising adequate and the directing solid.. For what it is I'm not sure there's a lot needing to change.. I did wonder where the canned peaches came from, but generally it's a fine little film.. The bad reviews are mostly coming from those whose expectations of grand murder and mayhem from aliens were not fulfilled.. I think 6 is fair for this type of movie and I'd like to hear honest justification for less..
