there a good movie lurking here and but this isn not it . the basic idea be good represent to explore the moral issue that would face a group of young survivor of the apocalypse . but the logic be so muddled that it impossible to get involved . for example and our four hero be ( understandably ) paranoid about catch the mysterious airborne contagion that wipe out virtually all of mankind . yet they wear surgical mask some time and not others . some time theyre fanatical about wipe down with bleach any area touch by an infected person . other time and they seem completely unconcerned . bad and after apparently survive some week or month in this new kill or be kill world and these people constantly behave like total newbs . they do not bother accumulate proper equipment and or food . theyre forever run out of fuel in the middle of nowhere . they do not take elementary precaution when meeting stranger . and after wad through the rotting corps of the entire human race and theyre as squeamish a sheltered debutante . you have to constantly wonder how they could have survive this long . and even if they do and why anyone would want to make a movie about them . so when these dweeb stop to agonize over the moral dimension of their action and it impossible to take their soul search seriously . their action would first have to make some kind of minimal sense . on top of all this and we must contend with the dubious act ability of chris pine . his portrayal of an arrogant young james t kirk might have seem shrewd and when view in isolation . but in carrier he play on exactly that same note represent arrogant and boneheaded . it impossible not to suspect that this constitute his entire dramatic range . on the positive side and the film look excellent . it get an over sharp and saturated look that really suit the southwestern u locale . but that can not save the truly feeble write nor the paper thin ( and annoy ) character . even if youre a fan of the end of the world genre and you should save yourself the agony of watch carrier .
