Dir:John Hillcoat
What an awful film!
This is a post-holocaust plot looking for a reason to
exist.
To emphasize a mood, there is very little colour, and
this goes for the plot, too.
I have a liking for post-holocaust movies which don't
have Zombies in them, so I endured this to the end,
hoping for some daylight, or some hope.
So, things are going to get bad out there, come an
asteroid hit, or should the Earth decide to begin a
mountains-building phase, etc.
SPOILER
When a chink of light in the guise of a small bird seen,
and an insect too, we are brought back in line as "Man"
is hit by an arrow, and things get worse from then.

unfortunately not a good film , tho the bleakest on the subject. "
They'll rape you then kill you " . Bleak is also good description of the
current state of cinema.
