The Plot: Michelle (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) has a car
accident and when she wakes up she’s inside a shelter with two men she doesn’t
know. The older one (John Goodman) claims that the outside world was destroyed
by a chemical attack or something of that kind.
The cast: John Goodman delivers an
Oscar worthy performance; he can be the nicer of fellas and, at the same time,
a truly scary one. I think this is one of his best roles. Mary Elizabeth
Winstead conquers our sympathy as Michelle, a scared girl who has to be strong.
There’s also a reliable John Gallagher Jr. as the other guy in the shelter.
Unfortunately, I can’t say much more about their work; I don’t want to reveal
anything I shouldn’t.
The Movie: For his cinema debut,
director Dan Trachtenberg gives us a strong, intense and highly suspenseful
movie. He also knows how to take the best of the terrific cast and the end
result is one of the best genre movies of the last years. From the shock we
have almost at beginning to the exciting climax, this is a must for drama,
thriller, horror, sci-fi fans… Well, the truth is, this is a must for everyone
who enjoys strong emotions and good movies. A great surprise and, although it’s
a parent of CLOVERFIELD, you don’t need to have seen that movie in order to
enjoy the ride. Don’t miss it!!!
My Rate: 9 (from 1 to 10)
