2021 thriller and sci-fi movie. With the financial collapse of unknown cause, people are starting to loot. Everyone is taking precautions to defend themselves. A wealthy family living far from the city center watches this on TV first. It doesn't take long for the looters they follow to get there. Then they find a place for themselves in the shelter of their next-door neighbors, but over time, a power struggle begins.
I didn't like the movie. The cause of the situation is unclear. Most of the characters are annoying. Mediocre i think. No nudity scenes.

This movie is such trash... it had potential but it loses it quickly.. the lead character (Greg) tries to act like an alpha male, he feels inadequate because he can't take care of his family. Him and his wife already have some weird fight going on when the movie starts. Martial law is happening so the country is falling apart. Looting and home invasions start happening..So what does old Greg do? He begs for help from his neighbor who is a doomsday prepper. The neighbor reluctantly takes in his family. The neighbor tries to teach greg to be a man but greg can't handle the responsibility. Greg realizes how little he contributes and becomes angry. He then screws over the man that took his family in while the world was losing its mind .... the neighbor fed old Greg's family, provided shelter and gave them a place for them to hide while they can make their own plans and not be ungrateful mooches... Greg and his family simply take without contributing or even saying thank you. The mom does help deliver the neighbors baby to be fair.. Greg feels like a little man because he can't provide or protect for his family as the neighbor has done... so he tries to pick fights with the neighbor. His son Kai meddles in the dooms day preppers things and food storage and steals from him (what a great kid). He is a mute... the sister declares he is a smart boy though. I think we all know the truth with that. This movie makes you more irritated and annoyed by Greg and his dysfunction whining, greedy fam.. you almost wish the ending went differently . Save yourself the 95 min and your sanity and find another movie.
This movie does not deserve a 3.9 rating here. It's not great of course. Maybe my 6.0 is a bit generous I don't know. This movie did one thing well and that it kept moving and held your interest. From beginning to end I was caught up in the excitement and tension. This movie also was bad in some respects. The acting was horrible, especially from the female lead. I rarely complain about acting. Also the ending was so anticlimactic. It was like just another scene but it was the climax. Again, definitely not deserving of a 3.9, but pass on this anyways.
Disappointing. Great movie idea however poorly portrayed. Derek Luke must've needed money. A black female physician delivers and breast feeds a strange Caucasian woman's baby and the woman's father jumps in shower with the married doctor.
Disgraceful. I only watched in segments to how awful the movie would be. I wasn't disappointed in it's awfulness.

Starts off rather well, good acting but it just went downhill fast after they move into the underground bunker as though the writers ran out of ideas.
Soon becomes more like a drama with little to no excitement or action, coupled with a lacklustre script it soon becomes like a wet Sunday afternoon movie!
