Darren D Destry Allyn Spielberg's feature length debut "Please Don't Feed the Children" is a middle of the road movie that comes off like Misery in a dystopian setting & an element of 70s/80s survival horror that can't shake the feeling it's trapped in a bad YA movie. The story gets interesting once it passes the opening 10 to 15 minutes & that's when it introduces Clara (Michelle Dockery). The curiosity & suspense started to build with the direction not showing its cards early, yet despite that the story is held back by character decisions from the teenagers when they're given many chances to survive. This isn't a complaint I like picking up on, but it's too noticeable not to & it's just anticlimactic with the final act. Michelle Dockery is easily the highlight. Dockery doesn't oversell her performance as the film's antagonist. Also, I'm interested in seeing what Destry Allyn Spielberg does next especially when giving more to work with. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/07/25 Full Review Paula Isabel R Why so many people involved in this project allowed the story to have so many flaws. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/29/25 Full Review Gustavo A The characters made multiple dumb choices, this was not a good movie, it could be a an episode of a TV show at most (strictly speaking about the story; there was some good acting). Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/29/25 Full Review Jeffrey P The global infectious outbreak subplot wasn’t relevant, or at least didn’t need to be revealed in the first five minutes. It probably would have been better to reveal that as a twist to liven things up since the story was slower paced and not the most original. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/20/25 Full Review Becks A It was okay. Not my favourite, but definitely worth a watch. I didn't really find myself bonding with any particular characters save for the detective. A really good idea with a slightly drier result than I think they were aiming for. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/05/25 Full Review Hayleigh P. This movie was actually pretty good. But if it effects all adults.. why did the detective and psycho lady survive..?? Also, why would she take him with her when he was bit..??? She seen what happened to his sister. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/21/25 Full Review Read all reviews
