Troy R Someone called it a less good, smaller budget Annihilation and I think that's a pretty spot on review. Lot less scifi than I would have liked and kind of a whatever ending. Acting was ok but nothing amazing. The scifi was pretty lame and could have easily been a mental breakdown rather than this lazy scifi hook. Character choices were probably the most annoying part, very silly reasoning and a lot of pointless things happened to eventually lead to the ending. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/30/25 Full Review Aldis H Well acted and shot, but it makes no sense, at least in a way where you know what's actually happening and whether or not any of this means anything and isn't just a fever dream, but nothing is explained. I felt precisely nothing for the characters at the end because I wasn't sure anything was real. I don't think the message could have been more muddled.

I understand the "purpose" which was a coming to terms with inevitable death and being unable to prevent or change the outcome and learning to accept it...which the whole thing could have been a metaphor, I guess, but I dont know if this was some weird waking dream or if there were any actual plot points the explained anything the movie presented. Is this some weird visual image of emotional breakdown? What is the point of the rock, the disembodied voice on the other end of the radio? She could have gone through the survival struggle without a bit of that to realize how futile her struggle to deny her sister's illness was. WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THEM?!?! Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/15/25 Full Review Rox K This is a HORRID movie. So slow and boring and tries to put in some sci fi in at the end that makes ZERO sense. What you do get is a whole lot of whining and false attempt to emotionally connect you to the character and her sick sister. There are so many plot holes and logic flaws if you are unfortunate enough to be able to stay awake the whole time you’ll be rewarded with pain instilling paralysis due to the massive crushing boredom and desire for an actual plot that makes sense. Woof. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/06/25 Full Review Steve N What if Annihilation was written by a moron? Amazing locations, pretty solid special effects and cinematography, with a script on stupid mode, and tied up in a bow with “it was all basically a dream.” Got about 5 minutes in and our lead character appears to think that she can pay for private cancer treatment for her sister with….a few chunks of uranium. Which, maybe a kid might think. Don’t let that kid write your movie. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/03/25 Full Review Betty B The only reason I can think of why this gets such a high rating is because of the cinematography. Everything else about it is rubbish. Spoiler: Flying rocks that take down planes so that they can make more people into flying rocks in a special cave, I mean come on! Oh the rock people can communicate via two way radios too 🤣 Make sure you have a bucket with you while watching 🤮🙄 Thought this was going to be a cool sci fi but turned out to be a total chick flick schmaltzfest. Don't get me wrong I've cried at many a film but this was not done well. Waaaaay too cheesy. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/30/25 Full Review Read all reviews
