The only reason I gave this movie a whole 3 stars is that it had a bunch of actors you would recognize from small parts and many 80's and 90's actors and some serious Hot Babes like the woman that played Sara, Elizabeth Roberts. The Movie drags on and on and it makes you believe there will be a "Good" ending that it is building up to, but NOPE, the ending is just a big.......PLOP. The ending is like having Elizabeth Roberts naked in front of you saying, "Take Me" and just as you are about to, you wake up and it's actually Hillary Clinton. PLOP.I love these kinds of movies, just NOT THIS ONE. If you are really bored and your choices are watching this movie and cutting off a finger, well, it is a toss-up, but you could at least "Justify" watching this movie then.You have been WARNED.

This movie is a must see. Out of any other Post Apocalyptic movies that I had ever seen this one delivers that sweet Benny Benassi "Satisfaction" of a aftermath catastrophe in a barbaric environment that pleases your human eye balls. I admit this movie is at times boring (but don't be bothered by those few times) the fantastic storyline of finding a City powered by Nuclear Cold Fusion means in a world set in a near future devastating chaotic aftermath of oil shortage is quite slim, and yet this is what makes this movie quite interesting and entertaining to the Apocalyptic Movie Styled fans. You will keep your eyes glued to this movie even if you don't like where the movie is going and that is what makes this movie as Epic as the story of Gilgamesh! But nevertheless this is a film with high hopes for the many Post-Apocalyptic movies to come. I had never seen Mad Max or The Road, but this movie surely puts those 2 movies to shame... Period! Despite the fact that at times what makes this movie a little disappointing is a few bad actors, yet mostly believable. This movie has a few mind boggling "whoa that's one gruesome crazy awesome scene!" moments... But unlike the bad reviews for this movie, In my eyes that have seen a lot of movies either bad or good, this movie is worth seeing either you like it or not it is a Must See.

I seem to be drawn to the post civilization, end of days genre. I think in an intentional way, this movie pays homage to almost every one I can recall. Eli, 28 Days and 28 Weeks Later, Mad Max, I am Legend, etc.The most significant though is the twist on 'A Boy and His Dog' where a very young Don Johnson (Vic) and his dog roam the nuclear wastelands of the mid US. He communicates telepathically with the dog, giving him an edge in finding food and naturally sex since women are scarce. Someone asked, "why kill the dog?" Well in 'A Boy and His Dog" Vic kills the girl so he and the dog can eat. Downstream flips all this giving a nod to the earlier version.

Although I am not a big sci-fi fan, I went to see this movie at its screening just for the experience. I was very open-minded and didn't know what to expect. This film had enough going on – some great cinematography, quality acting and plot twists - to keep me interested. It has its own unique style/charm that makes this genre storyline refreshingly different. I've watched a great number of movies over the years and too many are too predictable. Not this one.As a general movie viewer, I rate this above average, but less than sensational. A sci-fi fan would likely rate it higher. It's definitely worth watching.
