Emilie Black Cinema Crazed The film loses the interest of its viewers early on and struggles to regain it. Rated: 2/5 Oct 21, 2021 Full Review Nathaniel Muir AIPT Fun action movie is a throwback to a different decade. Big heroes, big villains, and big guns. Thin plot is balanced by great action sequences.

Victor O I saw this listed in Natassia Malthe’s filmography and wondered if it was worth my time. Several decades into the future, a pandemic has razed most of Europe and John Wood, former soldier who committed some of the atrocities involved in attempting to assuage the damage caused by the pandemic, is living alone, shut off from all other life after having lost his wife to the actions of the global security force that did all it could to prevent the spread of the disease. Apparently, he is immune or at least has avoided contact with the disease, but then he meets Maria Johnson, a woman who truly is resistant to the spread of the disease as she hides from this radical global security force who don’t want the cure for all mankind, just a chosen few. Maria and John unite in order to protect her as they face mercenaries to the elite in a grand confrontation in which John has the chance for retribution. Awesome. I didn’t think this was going to be so good what with lesser-known actors in the mix, but they are amazing, and I had fun watching this. I could call this an action with a sci-fi element. But let’s face it, in many ways, art imitates life for obvious reasons. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/28/25 Full Review Len P Don’t know how this achieves 63% on Rotten Tomatoes. A very simplistic plot, very wooden acting, corny dialogue that gives the appearance of being dubbed and pathetic unbelievable gun play action. Deserves about 5%. Unable to watch it to the end. utter garbage. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/19/25 Full Review Abby J You know all those legendary action one-liners, “I’ll be back,” “Say hello to my little friend”, the ones delivered with that deadly-serious "this is going to be quoted forever" energy? Well, imagine an entire movie spoken like that. Every. Single. Line. I don’t know if it’s the script or a misguided attempt to appeal to a certain audience, but wow, it gets old fast. That said, credit where it’s due: the camerawork? Chef’s kiss. Absolutely stunning. If you’re after something to watch (literally — just soak in the visuals) while you’re scrolling, this one’s worth a spin. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/19/25 Full Review Audience Member Slow start. Not very engaging, but worst of all - terrible acting! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/09/25 Full Review Aidan T This film.is utter horseshit from beginning to end. The dialogue sounds like it has been written by ALEXA. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/07/25 Full Review Georgia G Predictable and a shocking ending Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/07/25 Full Review Read all reviews
