If a chase scene was really long and sucked badly...

Rating: 2/10 (4 August 2007)

...that would describe this movie. The whole movie is based on the main characters running. And then running some more. A little bit more running. Can you guess what happens next? There are ONLY two redeeming qualities about this film. First is the excellent atmosphere, and it is good. Second is the premise, which is what might happen if the extinction of mankind was inevitable. Yes, that's it. And if you don't want to see the movie, don't worry. I just explained the entire film. Nothing else happened, nothing. You don't learn anything, there's no morality lesson, and there's no storyline. No progression. No character development. You gotta wonder if the writers just smoked pot the entire time instead of coming up with a story.
This is one of those movies that doesn't explain anything, and attempts to be "artistic" in doing so. You are left to basically write the entire story in your head. You never find out what's going on in the rest of the world, who, what or where the human project is, or if the newborn baby even survives. How can you have a movie about the world becoming infertile, then a new baby is born (unexplained how the woman got pregnant), and not tell us what happens to the baby in the end? WHAT'S THE POINT OF THIS MOVIE??? Every character has zero depth to them and aren't even likable. (Except Michael Caine, who plays a good hippie) The ending was horrible. It was pointless, and actually made a bad movie even worse. As a joke, I told my girlfriend "That would be funny if they ended the movie right now"... And guess what happened? This movie is honestly embarrassing. Not because it was doomed to be bad from the start, but because it COULD have been good. If only they explained everything instead of just mentioning it. Or actually going somewhere with the plot, instead of it being an endless chase from place to place to place to place to place........
