Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

grazer The movie is set in post-apocalyptic Oregon and for some unknown reason the rain stopped falling ten years prior and the few remaining people struggle to survive as water becomes scarce.Kendal (the protagonist) hides out in an abandoned farmhouse with Dean, who's kidneys are failing. He slowly and laboriously works away at random distributor caps that Kendal brings him, trying to make them fit...something. Yes, the movie drags. Just...as...slow...as...that...As the dragging progresses the villain emerges with his many zealots who scour the valley, hunting for survivors to kill those who he claims are using his water without his "permission" (yawn).While Kendal continues to scrounge for water and supplies and searches fruitlessly for THE distributor cap to repair an old airplane (AH HA! So there WAS a reason for the distributor cap. But now we're left to guess for ourselves what's so #$%^ed important about the plane???) Throughout the movie Kendal demonstrates an impossible skill of hiding and sneaking around in a completely flat and barren desert where apparently no one can spot her running around. She goes days without water killing bad guys, running back and forth across the blistering hot sands, giving dying Dean her share of the water.And in the final triumphant fight scene, where Kendal demonstrates an impossible skill with a katana, she easily takes down a full grown man who's swinging a machete full force, clashing blade on blade, which Kendal easily matches. And then after Kendal dispatches him with not much effort suddenly Kendal can barely fight another girl that Kendal F@#$%ing SHOT with a shotgun.The movie is obviously just feminist orgasmatron wet dream.Dumb. Just flat stupidly dumb.

bkoganbing Life's not been easy for brother and sister Haley Lu Richardson and Booboo Stewart since the drought came. A drought unlike any other. Oregon where they live is no longer fertile and green. Instead it's looking very much like the Mojave Desert where The Last Survivors was shot. It stopped raining there 10 years earlier in a natural world wide disaster.But in their own corner of the world a man named Carson played by Jon Gries is pushing out all of the people who are and have dug wells to survive. He's got the men and muscle to push them out and kill the survivors. Gries wants the whole valley for himself and to pass on to his daughter Nicole Ariana Fox who's as much a human predator as her father is.This quickie which only took days to shoot is decently done and the ensemble cast give good performances. It's one bleak picture of a possible future. One thing I could not figure out, water was the big issue here, but I never saw anyone eat anything, where was all the food?Make note of Max Charles who played a kid also trying to survive that Richardson and Stewart kind of adopt. He and Richardson stood out in this cast.

StonescapeLamps22 I enjoyed this movie on a few levels. The young lead did a great job in her acting (a lot of it non verbal) and action - that shotgun seemed a part of her at times. One thing I didn't like was (and this happens in a lot of movies) when our lead actor takes out some bad guys she always left their weapons with them - a thing that bugs me especially when resources are short. Anyway, in this age of a ton of lousy first to video movies, this one set itself apart by actually having some decent action, acting, writing and photography - stark but beautiful. A movie that I can tell the actors and producers put a lot of effort into. Hopefully it will make enough money to increase the production funds for these young movie makers to make some more and even better movies - we sure need them. Signed, Thirsty For More!

kosmasp The way we see the future is really depressing most of the times. Even if it's a great movie like "Mad Max Fury Road", it's very dark (dusty and dry too). As is the case with this low budget movie. It might have its issues along the way, but for its budget it is more than just decently made.Surviving in a hostile environment is not easy. Especially if you have bad guys like the ones in this movie. Still you long for the standoff you know will be coming, sweating along the way (sorry for the pun) and really feeling for the main character and what she has to go through. Which is a nice touch to have a female character being in the middle of all of this.
