Best movie in 5 years for me!

Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2018)

I don't suffer fools, nor do I suffer mediocre movies.
This movie with Sandra Bullock kept me firmly entranced for the duration of its 2 hour running time. Bullock demonstrated that she has a flair for dramatic acting as well as her comedic skills here. The story arc was executed well, switching from the past to the present well.
It tells the story of an unknown entity that, once seen with the naked eye, prompts people to kill themselves. We never see the entity, but the film portrays its presence without having to do so. There are some gory scenes, but not over the top. The two kids she has in tow as she seeks sanctuary did really well too! In Fact, everyone does a good job in this movie (John Malkovich is still John Malkovich) and it was shot and directed well.
The ending has kind of an ending reminiscent of The Book of Eli. I really enjoyed this movie, it shot to my best 250 movie list.
