TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Dec 28 Forgive Us All sets up a moody horror tale, but never delivers the punch it promises. The film teases tension, then stalls, creating a stop and go rhythm that drains urgency and makes the experience feel longer than it is. Just when it seems ready to ignite, it slows again, leaving you waiting for a payoff that never arrives. The direction feels unsure, as if the filmmaker can’t decide whether to embrace dread or play everything safe. That hesitation keeps the movie from building real suspense. Performances are mostly flat, with characters that never become people you care about. Without emotional grounding, the heavier themes fail to land, and the story struggles to pull you in. The screenplay is the weakest link, wandering without a clear path or purpose. Scenes hint at meaning, but nothing connects into a satisfying whole. In the end, Forgive Us All is a missed opportunity. It has the bones of something powerful, yet settles for a slow, uneven ride that leaves you disappointed!! See more Nathan M. @19Nate79 Nov 15 this is not a fast paced movie if you’re looking for that. this is a western with zombies sprinkled in sparingly. very lovely shots. it delivers exactly what it should. i wasn’t blown away but i wasn’t disappointed either. very middle of the road movie. do wish movies would stop depicting being shot in the leg or arm as being a flesh wound but that’s not unique to this film See more C B @RT03025588 Nov 12 The actress is attractive but this is the slowest western / slowest zombie movie I've ever seen...I couldn't make it past 20 minutes. See more tm11999 M @tm11999 Nov 7 good story about the horrors of NZ/aussie gov'ts lying to their people about putting everybody in camps.......you know....for their own good. those that dislike this and equate it with a "zombie" movie, miss the point. i'm surprised the leftists allowed them to include the subtle message. you can watch this.

A lot of people feel this is already a broken world, so imagine how much worse it could get amid a viral outbreak that turns humans into cannibals? Welcome to a brand new horror movie for 2025 called, "Forgive Us All" streaming on Netflix. Lily Sullivan as "Rory" has already had to make a couple of tough, horrific choices in the opening minutes of this film. Now she must ask herself to help a stranger "Noah" (Lance Giles), forcing her to choose between isolation or redemption in the stunning New Zealand wilderness. Watch out for: Callan Mulvey as "Logan" a take no prisoners survivor of this outbreak, plus Richard Roxburgh with a Scottish accent as "Otto" in a paternal role, but not to be confused with Tom Hanks performance as "Otto". Warning: strong violence and suicide references. Goof: I'm no equestrian, but I wouldn't think you should leave a horse bridled overnight in a stable. It's a slow burn after the initial shock, but well paced with just enough action to keep intelligent people watching. They're surviving, but what are they surviving for? Theres no comfort in this dystopian not too distant future. "Forgive Us All" is a thought provoking study of isolation, guilt and trauma rather than a full on zombie movie...although the flashbacks are brutal enough. You've got a right to fear not the dead, but people in GMA jackets riding horses, wielding cattle prods in this western horror flick. It's not just the infected you have to worry about. "Forgive Us All" directed and co-written by Jordana Scott is worth 93 minutes of your time if you're a serious fan of this horror sub genre. A damn fine directorial debut. See more Slick R @SlickReviewer Aug 31 It's setting and script is basically a budget Walking Dead. Except the zombies move fast and cannibalize like 28 Weeks Later. She even spreads something all over her clothes to cover her scent exactly like in Walking Dead. Not worth watching since there's nothing original here. See more Read all reviews
