Maybe it was my lower than low expectations going after seeing the trailer, but I actually enjoyed this movie to an extent. The violence was there even though the plot is a rehash of previous post apocalyptic movies. The action scenes suffer from quick-cut syndrome which is becoming the norm for lazy uninspired film making. I wish more screen time was given to Craig Conway as the delightfully insane Sol, as his scenes really stood out above the rest. Neil Marshall proves that he is better suited as a director when movies have minimal scope and are confined to one area, as the previously brilliant The Descent. It's loud, it's stupid, but if you know this going in there's no reason not to enjoy it just a little.
