If you're into artistic films, surreal imagery, subtle sci-fi/psychological horror, and don't mind using your brain to interpret meaning and piece together puzzles (unlike some of the 1-star reviewers here), you'll love this a lot. The music and cinematography were adequate but didn't blow me away, or it would've been a straight 10 for me.

First of all, i would almost call it a must read before this movie to at least have read the Iliad by Homer. ( watching the movie Troy, does not count. )

I am usually adverse to movies with a slow tempo, but thanks to great acting, amazingly written dialogue and a cinematography that captures ordinary life, without it getting gritty or depressing.

There is so many themes packed in this movie, with seemingly minimal effort that it is hard to count them all.

About the ending. My first instinct is to wanting to have a few more clues on what was going on, as it is hard to figure out what events are just a artistic metaphor and what are real clues on what is going on.

But after a little thought it was actually perfect, we get the same information as the rest of the city, that follows the local news.

So in conclusion, not a film for everyone - but if you want to follow some ordinary peoples life during an catastrophic event, this is for you.

I wish I could get the 90 minutes I spent on this movie back. What a horrible aimless film. If you like staring at a tree for 3 minutes at a time and zero satisfaction at the end, then this is the movie for you. If not, then pick something else.

I'm not sure what to make of this movie. The atmosphere is great, haunting and cerebral. The acting is well done. The cinematography is gorgeous. But the story goes no where.

Don't get me wrong, it definitely sets up an interesting world. I was genuinely curious what was going to happen and cared about the characters. But then the movie ended. There was no conclusion to any of the story lines, and nothing to even lead the viewer to draw his or her own conclusions about the strange things that took place. This really was only 3/4 of a movie - I'm not sure the writer/director even knew what they were trying to get across, other than, "let's show some mysterious stuff on a screen."

So I wanted to like this movie, but ultimately it was unsatisfying. Watch it for the mood and the ride, but don't expect a revelation of any sort.

I thought it touched a bit upon the experimental realm of filmmaking, and it was definitely very well done. Not everything in life is going to answer all your questions. Sometimes you just take something in and then see how well you do figuring them out on your own.
