And Caleb returns to the big city to make more of the cure and keep his promise to Gagan`s Daughter to help others in need too. Adventure, fear, tension, sadness, hope for the future. I really like the movie.
I have seen many science fiction movies about future catastrophes and a changed world; IE Planet of the Apes, Logan's Run, and numerous zombie movies. When one reads the brief story line, you know that it could be a "stinker" or worse. It is about stone-age humans coexisting with mutant humans that were altered by a virus that went out of control in the past. The mutants are contageous and very ugly, violent and somewhat stupid. Exposure to them turns humans into mutants. Knowing this, I rented and watched this movie. I enjoyed it! The special effects were good. Sean Bean's role was believable. I watch Sean Bean movies because they are interesting with a lot of action. I did have a few problems with the movie, though. There was a lot of detail and build-up at the beginning. Once the quest was on, things rushed along, too fast. The bad guy was evil enough, and apparently had the tracking skills of Tarzan. The eye shadow was enough to make the guy appear to be an old rock star. The deceased father that could read (and taught his son to read) invented the cure for the virus that turned people into mutants, well, that was a bit too unbelievable, since his tribe was using flint spears as weapons. (Where did the father learn to read?) Other than that, I did enjoy the movie. I am still searching for a "stinker" movie that Sean is in, but I haven't yet. Sean picks his movies well. Pardon me if I don't study the names of the many other actors and compare them to other roles they were in. It is enough to say that they were good. I have found that Walmart and Redbox have many movies with great cover art and plot interest, but the movies are in fact, terrible. I come to Amazon to read reviews and I do not waste money on "Stinker" rentals as much. Thanks readers!
This is definitely not an original idea; post-apocalyptic storylines have been around forever. In this particular case, all the `supposed' cave-dwellers are just a bit too pristine and GQ in their fancified ragtag garb artfully created by a designer. In record time, we're instantly introduced to one tribe trying to exist on nuts and berries and the occasion stray GIANT sloth. Their greatest enemy is a band of infected people they call the beasts (they're just misunderstood mutants). They are spied on by Amal (Sean Bean), who had some acquaintance with the father of two of the cave-dwellers. The dead man in question just happened to have created the only known cure for the dreaded `beast' disease. At that point in time, the son of said dead guy is the only person on Earth who can still read and therefore recreate the antidote (known as formula yellow powder). Naturally, that calls for a quest to the BIG city. Will they reach the city in time, will they find enough yellow powder left to cure their tribe, will their one and only reader be able to reconstruct his father's formula!!!
The main problem with this tired worn-out sci-fi flick is the overly familiar plot that's rushed to an unsatisfactory conclusion. It feels as though bits and pieces of the story were jettisoned along the way due to time constraints. Characters and plotlines were dragged in at the last minute then never properly dealt with before being abandoned. They definitely tried to accomplish too much given their obvious limitations. Still, it is watchable and entertaining enough and Sean Bean's presence tends to anchor some of the fly away aspects of the story.
This was a well done movie and a surprise that it has not made more of a splash as a surviavl movie. It takes up several generations after the end of our society. The plot rotates around the implyed end of society that was done in by some type of plague. Society is fragmented and formed into tribes and the ability to read has been lost which seems to be an underlying issue to the whole of the story line. It was an entertaining plot that kept me gussing as to what was going to be the end of the story which is what I like. I was not able to second guess the ending. Which I often do. Good entertainment and worth a watch.
Un futur post apocalyptique un peu décalé, la lecture y est devenu insolite cet l'histoire y a été refaite , en ces temps de jus il y a de quoi s'interroger ! Étonnant beaux décors de végétation luxuriante ou le végétal a repris ses droits !vfilm plutôt sympa !
Ce n'est pas le film du siècle mais c'est le genre de petit film inconnu ou presque qui mérite largement qu'on le visionne. Dans un futur lointain, la Terre a été ravagée et les humains sont retournés pratiquement à l'âge du fer. Les survivants se sont organisés au sein de communautés qui tentent de s'en sortir comme elles peuvent. Lorsqu'une épidémie inconnue se répand, la situation se complique encore plus. Avec des effets spéciaux de bonne facture et une histoire qui tient la route sans être transcendante, ce Lost Future mérite que l'on s'y attarde. A conseiller aux amateurs comme moi de séries B.
This is a sort of One Million years BC meets Buck Rogers in the 25th Century meets the Omega Man or Time Machine [Samantha Mumba version]. Set in a post apocalyptic future the human race survives in small isolated pockets, the rest of humanity having been turned into savage mutants bent on murder and destruction by genetic engineering gone awry. When one of these outposts is attacked by the encroaching mutants, a small group attempt to discover if there are any other settlements 'out there'. In comes Sean bean as a 'survivor who seems to have done okay on his own [well with his wife & child] The band learn there is a cure -a yellow powder and so their trek begins in a weak Lord of the Rings sort of journey where Sean has a number of 'friends' who have links with other outposts. It all sounds much better than it really is. The script has numerous errors for the picky amongst you and the small band originally give themselves a day to venture forth. The world seems ever so small when you consider the time they seem to be travelling yet they have little knowledge of it all and the terrain changes very quickly. That aside, its a watchable film but suffers from a low budget and some ill conceived plot lines where they manage to come and go with far too much ease. If you like the doom and gloom of the post apocalyptic and don't mind a made for TV approach then this will probably do you well. It is watchable and entertaining, its just that it seems a bit lacklustre given the story outline and a lot more could have been achieved. Don't pay too much for it and you'll probably think it's fine.
This movie looks like a made-for-tv movie. It was better than others I bought in that same theme of adventure and sci-fi. I recommend it as an interesting viewing.
