An interesting idea imagining what life would be like 10 years after the collapse of civilization, but the individual ideas didn't make sense. Anyone who has survived 10 years in this situation would 1. Have better survival skills, and 2. Make WAY better use of any resources.
The decisions made by all of the individuals, "good" and "bad," would not have kept them alive for 1 year, much less 10.
The atmosphere and mood in the movie were both good. It just needed a bit more sensible writing.
Oh, yeah, they'd also still speak. I'm sorry, but unless there was some kind of brain virus, people aren't going to just stop speaking. Superfluous plot gimmick.

Like most others have said, They might be going for "artsy," but this was just _really_ boring.
I'm sorry, but you have to get the audience a bit more invested before making them wait ages for something to happen. This is not suspense. This is "I have no reason to keep watching this." It is simply not interesting enough at the beginning to justify watching intently. There was nothing scary, nothing terribly interesting or even interestingly atmospheric. There were some of the usual horror/scary cliches, but not much more.
I started watching because of the description and the current rating, but it was not worth my time at all.

This movie tries to build tension but it just ends up feeling kind of slow at at times. Some of the apocalyptic ideas are good ones, but then there are huge parts that are completely not believable or realistic (more people running around? Not letting family members out of your sight?). Seriously unrealistic character behavior. Sure, I'll go hang out with this stranger that I explicitly said I don't trust, and you can hang out with his daughter. We'll do swap'sies in this scary emergency situation. Uh, no, that would not happen.
Don't get me wrong-- some of it is good. It's just that there are so many parts where you'll find yourself mumbling "why would you do that?" at the screen.
Some good ideas, but fell short in a lot of areas.
