A bunch of random people get ushered to a bomb shelter after an emergency.The unknown length which they will be contained since the disaster outside continues to escalate creates the tension as they all lose their marbles and turn on each other.Not all films can be or need to be on a blockbuster budget and this one makes good use of the time exploring the outcome of prolonged confinement.It's a "in the mood for" type of movie. Slow burner. Deliberately twists around, simple but somewhat intriguing.

I only write reviews of movies with low rating, which actually are not that bad. Give them a chance!I watched this because I like movies about apocalypse and post- apocalypse. The last scene made me wonder if this is really the story about apocalypse or a reality show, but... Those people could really live like that if the nuclear war have happened. So, for me, this is a movie about apocalypse.Story is very cool, I enjoyed watching this. Editing is bad and that is the only thing I don't like. Acting... well for this budget is more than OK! Those five are not great actors, but not bad one either. I wish that there are were information about what happened above them, but with ending like this it is maybe cool to let watchers decide whether nuke attack really happened or not.If you like apocalyptic movie, make sure to watch this one.6/10

This movie felt longer than it is, the emotions of the cast and the situation they are dealing with is well conveyed and felt throughout the film, the logical inconsistencies in the movie were distracting.Had we never seen the person monitoring the camera feeds at the end, it may have felt more complete actually. Its hard to reconcile that the experiment the "subjects" are a part of has no defined purpose. For example, if it were about survival, they proved they could survive. If it is about human morality, the operators/experimenters were in fact the most amoral characters in the plot. I had a lot of trouble understanding how each of them really got into the vault, why they spent so little time dissecting who each other was on the outside, and why they didn't challenge the surroundings more. They found the cameras in the grates after a full year and 3 months.The relationships between the people were downplayed, but would have had a lot to do with their actions and/or their fate. We saw the marriage of the couple dissolve, somewhat callously but there was not a great explanation or portrayal of what happened. The chronological skipping made for a lot of suspense throughout the film, but sort of left an out for the filmmakers to not tell the entire story and fill the holes left in the skipped time.The mirror scene at the end and finally a response by the experimenters/shadow company (of locking the door) proved to be the final inconsistency. The film was interesting as a thought piece, but proved hard to digest and not get caught up in more of the details.

This movie was a little hard to rate or sum up because some scenes and character development was well done in terms of the emotions conveyed and how they showed the paranoia and tension builds up but some scenes seemed rushed and happens all of a sudden. Those scenes felt like it was purposely inserted to create a shock value and maybe because movies of similar theme had scenes like that in them. Some may not like the movie at all since it's not action oriented. The movie tries to focus on the emotions of a small group of people trapped in a very bad situation. I enjoyed certain scenes and definitely felt that the film makers should be praised for those. However,the acting and the pacing should have been a lot better. So many things ended up as a cliché that are usually present in movie like this. The director did manage to offer certain fresh things in the movie by not making the character too cliché or boring. Each had there characteristics and scenes that make us understand and feel for them. That was one of the plus point of the movie. If only the director made it a more tense and gripping thriller or a more emotional drama,this movie would have been a lot more memorable. A good effort though and worth watching once.
