Dont listen to the haters. A solid apocalypse film.

Rating: 8/10 (24 December 2018)

Firstly...as I have read many reviews by others on IMDB, I am amazed by how they either didn't actually watch the film or expect every question to be answered. I believe it was Stephen King who's said (I'm paraphrasing) "Why does the audience have to know where the monster came from? The protagonist has no idea, why should the reader be omniscient?"
Is it so difficult to enjoy a film for what it gives you? Must every question have a nearly packaged answer gift wrapped for you? Is your imagination so limited and stunted that it is impossible for you to access it?
As several reviewers complained, " why are some people not affected?" If you paid attention, the unaffected are either insane or blind. If you are dying for an answer to the why, at the beginning a hypothesis is presented. It could very well be the why you are looking for..
The cast is fantastic. I would have loved the Malkovich character to have had more screen time. Sandra Bullock is solid and does a wonderful job of conveying fear even with half her face covered during the more tense moments of the film.
Give the film a go, dont expect the answers to be given to you. If you were fighting for survival, I think you would be more concerned with living other than, "Boy, I wish I knew the origins of these creatures trying to kill me!"
