Escape to the Cove

Yeah, well when I sat down to watch the 2021 movie "Escape to the Cove", I must admit that I was lured in by the promise of it being a zombie movie. But, as it would turn out, then I was in for a boring movie.

The storyline told in "Escape to the Cove", as written by writer and director Robert Enriquez was just incredibly slow paced and rather mundane. Nay, I will actually say that the storyline told in the movie was downright pointless and utterly boring. Not even 15 minutes into the ordeal that is "Escape to the Cove" then I was fast losing interest in the movie.

Any my waning interest weren't exactly invigorated by some mundane and emotionless acting performances. But of course, the actors and actresses in the movie literally had nothing to work with in terms of a well-written and interesting script and storyline, much less having anything even resembling appealing and fascinating characters to work with.

For a zombie movie then "Escape to the Cove" was just a lousy movie. There was no atmosphere in the movie, and everything that transpired throughout the incredibly slow paced storyline seemed of little or no worth. And it didn't really help that the movie didn't have an ounce of proper atmosphere or feel to it of a world ravaged by a pandemic and overrun with zombies. Everything was just too neat, clean and sterile.

If you enjoy zombie movies, like I do, then you must do yourself a favor and stay well clear of "Escape to the Cove". Some of us suffered through this train wreck of a movie so you don't have to.

My rating of writer and director Robert Enriquez's 2021 movie lands on a generous two out of ten stars. This movie was actually every bit as boring as it was pointless.

Enjoyed seeing great shots of LA while watching the relationship between Cairo and Solomon unfold - interspersed with the undead and a festering personal vendetta!

I love everything zombies! I did enjoy this movie. I thought the movie was vert "cute." Let's talk about the zombies first. The land zombies I could not stand! They look blind so how is it they can only sense you if you are moving? This movie made it look like the zombies were contemplating on what they should do. The sea lion zombies were awesome! Do I believe zombies can swim? Not really, but I do believe they do not need oxygen to live since they are already dead. I thought that part though was a nice touch. The acting I did not think was bad except for the actor who played Luther. Every time he opened his mouth it was very cringe. The story line is what I thought was cute. It was different, which I enjoyed. I felt happy that the daughter went to finally look for her dad. I would recommend this movie.

Escape to the Cove is a very enjoyable Independent film of what life might be like after an apocalyptic event. Good guys, Bad guys, Zombies, and great Cinematography all combine to tell a story of hope, and survival.

I love almoust all things from the zombie horror genre but this movie was sooooo bad i started playing on my phone and just had the movie going in background. Didnt even finished it. Gave it 2 stars only because it tried to be a "real" movie n wasnt made by a bunch of friends with no budget and an Iphone camera. Dont watch it!!!! If you wanna watch a low budget zombie movie;rather watch Chrysalis from 2014. Way better than this piece of crap.
