The Clearing

I'm not a massive fan of zombie films. But this movie wasn't too bad. I've seen alot worse.

Lacks originality, logic, it's repetitive, and the acting is absolutely terrible all around.

If you've ever seen 10 minute of a zombie movie, imagine playing that in a loop, and you get this movie.

Without giving anything away (there's nothing to give away!), here are a few inane points: zombies appear out of nowhere, in the middle of nowhere, where a father is camping with his daughter for a couple of days only. What are the odds?!

Also, the zombies scream in pain when hit; aren't zombies supposed to be dead, and unfeeling?

Year 2020 saw cheap, silly movies like this one popping up like mushrooms after the rain. I don't know if it's the fault of COVID-19, or the free streaming lowered the entertanment standards, but movies like this are worthless, and a total waste of time, and other resources such as bandwidth.

This really felt student-y. It had no budget and that is fine because you can work with that. However they did not.

It is really predictable and kinda just runs around all over the place plot wise. The first half of the movie isn't a zombie movie, it is a movie about a single father, then it becomes a zombie movie and then it looses all the zombies and because some sort of scene study about 2 men struggling in an apocalypse situation.

The action scenes are shot really fast and cartoon-y. I struggles to find my bearings when i was watching it.

I would give it a miss as it kinda just dodders around doing nothing for an hour and 20 minutes and then gives you the most predictable ending it could have.

Using the backdrop of a Zombie apocalypse, this movie is focusing on the redemption of father/daughter relationship and tries hard to show the differences in our generation gap. The potential for a great film is there, but if by a great film you want one about zombies, maybe this is not for you. The characters are believable, the script is ok, the scenerio questionable but the backdrop is dodgy. If you want to see a movie about a dysfunctional Dad doing his best in an apocalyptic setting, look elsewhere.

Full of cliches and massive plot holes. Why did the little girl leave the camper in the first place? For a person who rather play on her phone, why did she leave it? Zombies now can climb ladders and like to fist fight.
