Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

anm-476-868648 I am an English speaker and I saw this movie in Spanish with English subtitles, and after viewing it I think, for me, that was the way it should be viewed.At the outset we are told all life will be exterminated by a large meteor/asteroid hitting Earth, so we know what the bottom line is. The story line follows a man who has to fight his own, personal demons before he is a whole person. The question is, 'will he make it before the planet is destroyed?'.The filming is not graphic like most modern movies, there is very-very little blood-shed and what there is is on-screen for a fraction of a second. The violence is implied more than anything else, up until the finale that is. The viewer has to be an active participant or they are not going to like/understand/get what is going on.The directing and acting is excellent, characters are totally believable, The filming is all 'warm' with a slight yellowish cast to convey the heat and dryness. It is a very effective movie.I would highly recommend this movie to anyone.

Alexander Pastukh I seriously relied on Tres días, but it left me blank, completely blank… Well on the one hand, the idea is great. Three days before apocalypse left and it's very curious to see how people from small town spend their last days considering that they know about oncoming end. On another hand, this great idea wasn't implemented exactly like I expected. Undoubtedly it doesn't mean that if something didn't justify my hopes its bad thing. But in this case we got really weird picture. Weird due to the strange thriller elements, they were quite superfluous I think. And the punch line was entirely unrelated with idea of apocalypse.I've no clue what creators tried to tell by this picture it looks like they tried to pursue two aims simultaneously but didn't reached any of them. Both parts of the film (sci-fi and thriller) are washed-up; everything seems to be so confused that it's almost impossible to understand what this movie is about. I don't understand what's the point to make revenge or try to escape when u know that only 3 days left! Probably it tries to show us that it's very important how to die? Well, theoretically it's possible but I cannot get a necessity of revealing such concept by that way, particularly when u know that in real situation nobody won't care about revenge.Rest of all is OK, amazing operator's work, good actor performance, great landscapes, tricky suspense moves, but as I mentioned before, no clue in the plot. The psychological behavior of people on the threshold of apocalypse is much more significant stuff in such movies in my opinion. And the script doesn't provide it. It doesn't have what it takes. This film should offer much more then just contradictory story without any meaning.

dbborroughs (Spoilers are ahead. I talk about the end so don't say I didn't warn you) Saw this on IFC in Theaters service, though I know the DVD recently came out.With only four days left before a meteor is to crash into the earth, the governments of the world tell the populations of the world. As panic and prayer ensue one man tries to make peace with himself, the world and his family. Unfortunately a serial killer has gotten out of prison and made his way to the family house in the country. Forced through circumstance he must now protect his brothers children before the meteor kills everyone on the face of the earth.Talk about damned if you do damned if you don't. This is not a particularly happy movie. they basically tell you at the start that there is no hope, so the question is do you lay down and go now or fight until the last possible minute. thematically this is the life of anyone who ever has been told they are going to die and decided to fight to the bitter end. I'm not sure we need a film this bleak to lay it out for us.Actually I'm not sure what to think of this film. Its two excellent films, an end of the world tale beautifully made and nicely well modulated, more so since the whole notion of the adults knowing whats coming and the kids don't adds a nice shading to the tale. At the same time the serial killer story is well done and scary, with some nicely nasty turns. The problem is that in the process of shoehorning them together both stories are kind of undone. The meditative nature of the end of the world tale (which I should say kind of reminds me of Andre Tarkovsky's The Sacrifice) gets lost when faced with the serial killer. The serial killer plot while very tense is short circuited by knowing beating hims doesn't matter. I have no doubt that should something like a meteor threaten the earth something like this could happen, but at the same time watching it kind of seems pointless. If the film could have somehow made the two parts work better together this might have been a great film. As it stands its a good film thats too bleak to contemplate and too fractured to feel satisfying.Worth a try, but you'll know where its going from the outset so don't say I didn't warn you.6 out of 10 because of its fractious nature. the pieces are actually much higher than that.

benjamingrullo This is the kind a movie I can't bear, the whole script rests on a main character who artificially postpones action in order to complete an hour and a half movie. I have the same feeling than watching Straw Dogs. As other comment says: "your guarding a bunch of helpless children from a known psycho, and a very suspicious stranger shows up when you are out in the middle of no where, you take him away from the house and you shoot him and then you shoot him again". You know the guy should shoot the bad guy from the very beginning, and there is no reason no to do so, you know and he knows... but we have to complete a movie.The main character is also incoherent with his purpose of protecting the kids, leaving them alone, and breaking the unity of the family group. The action is done against basic human rules of behavior.The acting is OK, is the writing and the whole movie concept that doesn't work.
