Overall an interesting film

Rating: 8/10 (3 February 2019)

I truly loved the plot of Annihilation. The film kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. It also kept me guessing and thinking about what was going on inside the shimmer. There are definitely a few things that could have been different to make for a better film; like some military trained people to tag along with the scientists. Only 1 person has made it out alive so far and he's on a ventilator, and they didn't think to bring some people who could protect them? I also don't understand why they didn't wear hazmat suits or something. They have zero knowledge of what is inside the shimmer because everyone has died, but they go in anyway with no protection from chemical or biological agents. What kind of scientists are these? Like I said, overall it is a great film with an awesome story, but correcting these plot holes would have made for a terrific film.
