That was an excellent one.

Dreadfully Boring

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This movie felt somewhat like a cross between a couple of movies I've seen, one being Moon (2009) and the other I can't remember.
In all aspects - acting, scenery, story - I felt that Moon was a better movie. It does not make this a bad movie, but I never got the same feeling watching this one.
Perhaps if I saw this one first, I'd rate it a 6 or 6.5. But I gave Moon an 8.

This is full on sci-if, but I like a good post apocalyptic story. It's a bit straight to DVD though, the acting is too forced, very wooden, generally a bit OTT and annoying. The CGI is heavy handed in places too. All that aside, fair play to the production for having a go and getting this out there, the story isn't too bad. I suspect the budget wasn't huge and aside the bloke from Lost (that was also a Hobbit or something), there's not any notable names. It's a bit crap if I'm honest, but I kinda liked it, a little bit.

I so rarely write reviews, despite watching an awful lot of movies. This one was poor enough that I was motivated to pop down a warning for any who might think 'Ah, I'll give it a go'I don't mind a low budget approach to SciFi, I can look past less than perfect FX and CGI, I don't even consider bad science a deal-breaker. Bad writing, bad acting, insanely obvious 'twist' and lack of satisfying dismount, however - that's enough to get me to put finger to keyboard and declare this a real dud. The actress playing Abby was awful, bless her. Though, to be fair, the script was pretty sub-par so she didn't have a lot to work with. Dominic did his best but the shot choices, off-pace editing and, again, poor source material meant his efforts simply came across as hammy. With better direction on all areas, he at least could have salvaged some dignity. Tom Sizemore was barely in it and had little to do.The premise of the film is not the worst, and in more capable hands could have been at least an entertaining diversion. However, the actual final result looks like a rushed, b-grade (at best) made for TV gap filler for when the decent shows are on hiatus. SyFy has shown what they are capable of with The Expanse (among others). This was simply not a good movie on any level.

No spoilers here. I added another point to my rating because I whole heartily disagree with the low reviews. Although those looking for high tech fancy sci-fi special affects, and action packed fight scenes, (this story is not about that),they will be disappointed. What it DOES have, is some very believable acting. And although a modest setting as most of the movie is shown in a debilitated run down power facility in the future, it is believable. Most of the movie has a lot of dialogue between two characters. That in itself may turn some viewers off. But the story/pace gives little bits at a time, to build suspense, yet gives enough that the characters aren't flat/one dimensional... It is a slow burn thriller, and for a lower budget film, I thought this was excellently done. The lower ratings are not fair. I believe it IS NOT due to the QUALITY of this movie, but rather, the viewing preferences, of the viewer.
