It's ok

Rating: 6/10 (30 December 2018)

I enjoyed the movie. It reminded me a lot of "The Road," and maybe this piece was what Shyamalan wanted when he made The Happening - and no, for the love of God, this movie has nothing to do with "A Quiet Place". It's a good thriller. Entertaining. Sandra Bullock Once more is amazing on screen. Trevante Rhodes proves himself as a versatile actor and stands amazing beside Bullock and Malkovich. The pacing of the story is good. We're on the edge of the seat at times.
I did not see all the allegories people said this movie dealt with, like depression and anxiety; I did not find it an "Annihilation" or a "Get Out". It's an apocalyptic monster movie. No mystery or deep meaning there.
It was a little annoying not to show the monsters - not one bit - but at the same time, maybe it's a smart decision. It's known that their presence means absolute danger, that doesn't take eyes to know. The starting point felt a little rushed, like World War Z - actually both starting sequences have the same tone of rush, confusion and urgency. There are tense moments.
And for that, I have nothing to complain about. It's a nice thriller; I enjoyed it.
The movie is ok.
