What Still Remains

I have learned over the years that any time I see a review or reviews that continuously name the director and how great he is the red flag will now go up for me. Family, friends, production crew, all are told to hype the movie to get sales (and make sure you mention the director). Run away and save your money.

The acting was ok , the pace was slow, it felt boring in many parts, unsatisfying obvious plot twist and (no zombies, WHY?).

Imagine a episode of "The Walking Dead/Fear" remove 85 % of that episodes budget,and bring in a team of gerbils to write the script,and you have this all sewn up !

This film reminded me of a value meal at a fast food restaurant. It looks good for a low budget but leaves you feeling unsatisfied and wanting something with much more substance.

What Still Remains is well made, with a strong emphasis on character development and atmosphere. The post-apocalyptic world is convincingly portrayed, with a palpable sense of danger and uncertainty. The film also explores themes of faith, trust, and survival, and it does so in a way that is both thought-provoking and engaging.

One of the strengths of the film is the performances of the lead actors. Lulu Antariksa is excellent as Anna, portraying her character with a mixture of toughness and vulnerability. Colin O'Donoghue is also very good as Peter, bringing a sense of charm and charisma to his role.

However, while the film is well made, it does suffer from some pacing issues. The first half of the movie is slow, with not much happening in terms of plot. This may be off-putting for some viewers, but for those who stick with it, the film does pick up in the second half.

Overall, "What Still Remains" is a well-crafted post-apocalyptic thriller that explores themes of faith, trust, and survival. While it may not be for everyone, those who enjoy this type of film should find it to be an engaging and thought-provoking experience.
