A Breath Away

The movie begins with an exciting and unusual accident . Audiences expect something strange happens like monsters and gaint creatures and so on. But we see a logic vision entire the movie. the storyline is vague. Why that happens? the smoke. where is it from? the story focuse on family ties and how the want to save their lives. I expect more unusul things. Anyway, That is not a bad movie. a middle-range movie movie. 6 out of 10 is good for the movie.

I think the idea and concept is good but without spoiling the movie too much, here's my take ( I am writing this fresh after watching )

By the middle it was VERY predictable what might happen. They tried to build on the main characters and for us to feel for them, but I hardly felt any emotions, the buildup simply wasn't strong enough.

On the issue of selfishness + selflessness, other survival based movies have touched on this Heaps better. District 9, Train to Busan etc. just to name a few off my head.

I like the idea of a dangerous fog over Paris, the trailer was very captivating, as was the first half of the movie, then it goes wayside very quickly.

in all I would say it was a wasted opportunity. There was a great missed potential here. It centers only on so few characters yet I do not feel much for them, and at the end of the movie, you are left with no answers to the greater whole .. good Concept, but too shallow

5.5/10 at best for me.

This is a very good film that avoids all the trite elements of a sci-fi or survivalist story. The characters are sensible and likeable and the story is really good. Check this gem out folks. You won´t regret it.

I really enjoyed this little gem when I stumbled onto it.

It was a fresh concept that got straight into the action, it showcased characters through their exploits rather than having some clumsy method of character building but most refreshing was that the two main protagonists were clever and quick thinking. There wasn't the usual 'why in god's name would they do that' stupidity or similar frustrations. Just decent robust characters trying to figure stuff out.

Okay, the set up did telegraph the ending a little but I found the film thoroughly entertaining and if you like well made 'survival' films then this is defo worh checking out

I found this movie after someone shared a clip on social media,so it had me curious to see the whole thing.

This wasn't so much of horror,instead it was a drama almost passing like a thriller.

It kept your attention throughout,as you're intrigued to see how it ends.

Although a bit clichéd,it still was original & overall storyline decent.

When the parents traveled to get a suit for their daughter,why not use both that appeared on the lab shelf? Would of gave better survival chances,spare parts or helping the old couple.. Also why not(try)finding a car,bike or motorcycle to help move around faster to preserve tank oxygen? The father did this.. finally,as the movie is almost over.

Bit odd how the daughter was acting despite her mom died,all going on around her but given she was free of containment & with a boy she loved all seemed ok.. Even though now her dad can only survive,based on the bubbles conditions?

Found it rather interesting the gas causing those in bubble chambers to breath,could end up surviving outside without help.. As though biologically,things got switched in reverse.

Was the parents not a couple? Seemed dad had a place across the street from daughter & mom or was it for more living space,as the bubble chamber took up space?

I had a flash back to Titanic when the old couple is laying in bed,waiting for their demise.

Was cast & acted decent plus cinematography was fine.

Is worth checking out it is in French,but enjoyable with subtitles if needed.
