Empire Magazine

A moody, engaging end-of-the-world horror-drama, if a bit too apocalypse-lite.

Rated: 3/5

Time Out

This thoughtful, low-key exploration of our darker survival instincts is too conventional and unfocused to fully engage our emotions.

Rated: 2/5

Deep Focus Review

Although the film comes very close to being more than run-of-the-mill horror fodder, too much studio meddling and a shifting tone leave the result uneven.

Rated: 2.5/4

I thought at first, it's a typical zombie movie. But I was wrong and amazed how I was entertained.

It's ok. I can't really say much happens and a few loose ends aren't really seen through. Chris Pines great as always

It's a shitty movie no proper story line the characters make stupid decisions also even the good guys do some ridiculous things. There are a couple type of characters you can make someone and apocalyptic zombie movies/tv shows often have the type that's kinda a asshole and also the tough guy but usually they are really good on the inside and end up making the right decisions but in this movie the tough guy is kind of an a****** but they also try to portray him as kind of nice but he just makes decisions that make you hate him because they're just not right. And then the guy who isn't the tough guy and you think is the good guy also makes those kinds of decisions. And basically all in all people just do stupid stuff and it's just not a good movie.
