Review by Idahogirlx

Leave the World Behind

8/10

People don't get this movie!!

Most reviews I'm reading here are all saying how stupid or bad the ending was and how there was no real explanation and all that. Does it always need an explanation, a result or a perfect ending to be a good movie? I don't think so. Use your own imagination and try to figure it out. The problem with the audience nowadays is the lack of imagination, the will to just discuss a movie even if they didn't like the ending. Maybe there's a point behind it. I watch many indie movies and most of them make no sense, that's the beauty of it.

Now this movie did make a lot of sense. It was about the fear that we experience , the moment when something like this would happen suddenly especially in our society nowadays that we are so addicted to our devices that we can't even find our direction to drive without google maps. The fact nothing seems to work anymore without the internet is so scary to me! And this movie portrayed that fear very well in my opinion. The unknown of what's happening. And there's no need to know what really happened. Obviously it was not good and obviously the girl at the end was a Metapher for most ppl nowadays that just don't care as long as they're online distracting themselves.

It's a really good movie actually with an important message. The only reason why I gave this only 8 stars is bc I didn't like the soundtrack at all. It was rather misplaced in my opinion. But seeing Robert's, Hawke and Bacon was a real treat for me as 80s lover!
