After the End

Agree with other reviews, acting was good, cinematography was most excellent, plot, dialog and some sequences were reeeeeally bad.

If you go in thinking it was a high school film project, you will be impressed. If you pay to see it your inner Karen will likely come out.

The filmmakers cared a lot about how things looked - both in terms of cinematography and two main actors. Unfortunately, they cared about visuals much more than they cared about the script, which is riddled with contrivance and occasionally outright nonsense.

Survival teen is smart/informed enough to subsist on his own but is apparently blind because he can't see he's riding his bike into a 20-foot-diameter pit. The plausibility of his actions just decline from there.

Bad guys show up and end up magically tracking down survival guy and his new friend who are riding away on bikes for days while bad guys meander at a snail's pace through the countryside. It's absurd.

I won't, uh, "spoil" the ending, but after a *very* briefly promising twist, the resolution is just patently stupid/unbelievable.

I normally read reviews before taking a chance on stuff like this, but for various reasons, I skipped the reviews this time. Lesson learned.

This late Sunday night, I chose this movie due to being a post-apoc fanatic. For a low budget, film, I enjoyed it more than most of the Prime movies I've seen over the years. After a long and slow start, I was HOOKED once the plot shift occured. Instead of having all my questions answered, I feel the director did a SUPERB job of controlling the flow of the story, leaving PLENTY of room for prequels and sequels if desired. I don't want to sound bias at all, but with the lack of over the top special effects, I am very satisfied with my choice, and highly recommend if you like great finales.

This is a gem that deserves it's place among movie lovers' "I've Seen That" list.

I thought this was a good thought provoking movie. The movie isn't big on details. This movie would be great for a college course to drive a critical thinking discussion.

The cinematography was pretty good and the acting was good but the interaction between the two main characters was generic.

A slow pace as the Boy and girl ride bicycles across America to some promised land that post apocalyptic movies always seem to have to give the film a destination for its journey Even if a platitude is not a bad idea. The problem is the film took forever to get there with only an interaction with hillbillies. Ofcourse one.of.the hillbillies seem to be the intellectual of.the group sputtering rhetoric and to justify their actions.

The ending and resolution of the conflict was rushed as if deliberately again while the film.was.slow and tedious up to that point. Clichéd and just going through the motions. Basically boring.
