Starting to watch this movie looking for a mixed assessment and feedback, involuntarily feel a film critic, which is view the time you have to think that write response to the picture. One of the few movies that made me think three times before clearly say it is bad, or good.
The film is based on based on the novel "Into the forest" in 1996, and as I don't had a chance to read it, write treceno from comparison of the book and the actual film.
Plot
The history of painting tells us about the near future (although there is the first question arises: where the signs of the future?, of course at the time of the publication of the novel in 1996 there was flat TVs, voice assistants and smartphones from each person in 2015 it is already not a luxury but a routine). Two sisters trying to survive in the so-called "Apocalypse", consisting in the widespread power outage. And as people in this "future" is not able to live without their electric devices, respectively, and they need to learn to survive in the new to them atmosphere. By the way for displaying elements of the adaptation of adolescents under the harsh conditions of life without electricity, $ 10 minutes of screen time. Well, okay, it was all frame they are using books on survival learned to survive. These books by the way, which at the time of universal access to the Internet, have kept POPs sisters. Apparently, he knew preparing for this coincidence as the Apocalypse.
Well and generally if to tell about the story of the film, it is very crude, but the in no good stocks, from which feyspalmy fly packs face. Perhaps the motivation of some actions of the characters do not very clear. For example, the irresistible urge to dance music one of the sisters, even when a critical shortage of fuel for the generator. Of course not for me to judge women's thoughts in those or other difficult situations, the author of the novels probably knows better about it, so as is a woman. But generally, if not dropped to such jambs, then you get quite a good, seasoned a dramatic story, in the center of which is a different sort of experience girls.
Actors
The main actors in the film as not especially popular, except for Ellen Paige (who managed to light up in a pair of three big projects), but questions to their work is absolutely not occur. A very large palette of emotions issued to them to believe that want to experience. And certainly I want to mention the fact that due to the physique and "baby" to Ellen page in its 28 years, it can play the girl-the teenager, and easily change roles to more serious roles.
the camera work and the soundtrack
When a job is well done, questions and NIT-picking does not occur. In this case, as it is in order. A high level of shooting, editing and all the technical Department of the film. The soundtrack is also incredibly good, so like the drama he is written very well, and most importantly with focus on the experiences of the characters.
Opinion
In the end, it should be noted that this movie is not about survival in the woods at the time of the Apocalypse, and not the synopsis for the series "the Walking dead". And something separate, melodramatic expression of women's experiences associated with different kinds of tragedies that have occurred with them. Movie-the expression of female behavior associated with family, survival and protection.
Underrated, dramatic, full of strong scenes experiences to the main characters of the picture, with a great soundtrack and lots of emotions.
