I really did not like this movie! I really don't know quite where to begin to describe how much I didn't like it! My husband in the first 15 minutes quit watching! I sort-of finished watching it the next day, in hopes that it might improve. NOPE! No improvement! Ranks right down there with "The Blair Witch"! YUCK!

The whole movie was filmed with an amatuer video camera and it had a horrible ending. Don't waste your time.

I don't know what people are talking about...so what, it just ends. That's right- every movie doesn't have to have a cookie cutter ending where the hero and heroine get together and walk off into the sunset. The point is the bravery and heroism in the face of such adversity. What does man kind do in it's darkest hour? I loved the love story weaved in and the filming was NOT like the Blair Witch. Yes, it was hand held (or seemed like it a lot of times) but that doesn't make it the same. The movie had me laughing, in awe, and nearly crying at times. It was a great action flick if you don't need everything spoon fed to you.

American audiences are jaded. They expect all the answers, and everything to be clear cut. BUT if you come into this movie with no expectations for CSI like methodology of explaining, then you'll do alright. This movie will keep you guessing, it will leave you with questions. It will not tie up all loose ends. But that is exactly how it makes you wonder, makes you guess, and makes you talk with your friends about it. Seriously, give this one a try, and be prepared for the unknown.

Wow, it's really too bad that all the people reviewing this movie apparently MUST have a predictable boring ol' hollywood movie, shot just the way they're used to, in order to like it. If you saw the preview then you know what to expect...DUH! Anyway, I REALLY liked this movie. It is shot exactly how it would be from a camcorder. This was obviously to make it more realistic, and it succeeded. If you get motion sick from your TV (pathetic), then I suppose you shouldn't watch. I was so engrossed in the movie that I didn't notice the camera work even once...excellent, engaging movie if you are even the least open minded towards new ideas in cinematography.
