“I watched this film with my wife last night, sheu0026#39;s into her apocalypse zombie films and Iu0026#39;m into no-budget indie flicks so when Amazon spat this one out at me I thought u0026quot;this is perfectu0026quot;. At a brief 63 minutes too itu0026#39;s a film that didnu0026#39;t take much dedication to putting on and seeing through to the end. Ususally when youu0026#39;re 40 minutes into a film you think u0026quot;ooooh god thereu0026#39;s another hour of this stillu0026quot; but in this film it meant we were right near the end. This film is weird because it contains easily double itu0026#39;s length in terms of narrative substance, yet itu0026#39;s trimmed down to a mirror sheen. If anything I think this might be the only issue with the film, I would have liked to have felt like I was on this journey with Gilian and kyro for a longer period of time, as their characters feel like they donu0026#39;t quite go far enough, but maybe theyu0026#39;re hyping us up for a part 2, if so Iu0026#39;ll be first in line! Just like how Iu0026#39;m first in line for reviewing this film. I think itu0026#39;s a brilliantly fun romp with an interesting cast of characters, and it does a good job keeping things interesting, it never hangs on one point too long, things are always moving. To close this review off, I think the story worked wonders. Oppenheimer was my favourite, heu0026#39;s a very complex person, you can feel a mirror difference between him and gilian.”
