| Action Science Fiction

Wes Keller is a young man living in a world where oil has collapsed, the food supply has been wiped out, and cancer rates for women have skyrocketed, depleting the female population. In a barbaric environment where bio fuel, batteries, bullets and people are currency and marauders roam free, Wes tries to escape to a mythical world run on cold fusion "Plutopia", a place that may only exist in the mind. THE BILL IS DUE. 'Downstream' is a view of the not so distant future. We follow a young man (everyone's son) as he pays the price for society's decadence.

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

My expectations weren't all that high but this movie sucks in so many ways that it nearly hurt to watch it. Let's face it: It IS entirely possible to make a really good post- apocalyptic movie on a really limited budget but that would require a couple of prerequisites that this film crew was lacking - you would have to have an interesting script, acted well by decent actors and a director/editor ready to spend weeks editing the accomplished product. Of these this film has NONE. It felt like I was watching a high school art class production, and certainly not made by the top students either. There has rarely been a time in the last 44 years when I thought to myself "life is too short for this kind of godawful crap" and quit watching halfway through the film but yes, I couldn't possibly finish this one. I cannot recommend this to anyone, not even out of curiosity and since it just sucks it isn't even comedically bad, just sad. The props and costumes are quite well done but that doesn't save the show when the acting is on par with old German porn videos (and if you have never had the displeasure of stumbling onto one, let's just say that they were not paid for their acting skills).

If you like to watch movies with your analytical mind turned on, alertly watching for all the subtle little visual clues in it, then you might enjoy "World's End" as much as I did. All the things they can't show due to the meager budget will be filled in by your own imagination. Ignore the clues, relax and don't think much about what you see, and what is left is a plot that just does not make much sense. This may be the reason behind some of the bad reviews. Turn on you mind and fill the voids with your imagination, based on your real world background knowledge on GMO food tumor rats, bankrupt governments, legislation against "non-certified" seeds, large corporations buying mercenary companies, you may even get the feeling this movie is prophetic. (I hope it isn't, but it feels like it). We also had a lot of fun discussing how we would have acted in certain situations shown in the movie where the protagonists clearly made a big (and often deadly) mistake. Sort of an educational movie for post apocalyptic preppers. Some things in the script really suck, though, such as the mysterious fuel they run their bio-fuel turbine with. In my opinion this and a few other blunders could be cut out, as they do more damage than good. Still, I do not regret to have bought the DVD.

This movie is a must see. Out of any other Post Apocalyptic movies that I had ever seen this one delivers that sweet Benny Benassi "Satisfaction" of a aftermath catastrophe in a barbaric environment that pleases your human eye balls. I admit this movie is at times boring (but don't be bothered by those few times) the fantastic storyline of finding a City powered by Nuclear Cold Fusion means in a world set in a near future devastating chaotic aftermath of oil shortage is quite slim, and yet this is what makes this movie quite interesting and entertaining to the Apocalyptic Movie Styled fans. You will keep your eyes glued to this movie even if you don't like where the movie is going and that is what makes this movie as Epic as the story of Gilgamesh! But nevertheless this is a film with high hopes for the many Post-Apocalyptic movies to come. I had never seen Mad Max or The Road, but this movie surely puts those 2 movies to shame... Period! Despite the fact that at times what makes this movie a little disappointing is a few bad actors, yet mostly believable. This movie has a few mind boggling "whoa that's one gruesome crazy awesome scene!" moments... But unlike the bad reviews for this movie, In my eyes that have seen a lot of movies either bad or good, this movie is worth seeing either you like it or not it is a Must See.

This movie is similar to other movies currently released about the future of mankind if we continue with our wasteful ways. There were some very interesting uses of graphic art (kinda Frank Miller-ish) and multi-scene shots. In my opinion, the most interesting character is Tobias; the actor does an excellent job portraying a cut-throat S.O.B.The tag line is something like "the journey begins when civilization ends" and that about sums up the entire movie. If you sit and jot down a list of what you think would happen if the world's resources were to disappear, you would have what writer Philip Kim came up with. That being said, bravo to the director for making such a stale plot interesting enough for me to want to write a review.Bottom line: if you like sci-fi and are concerned about the end-of-days this movie is for you.
