Excellent adaptation.
Boring
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
"The Apocalypse" is an American English-language film from 2013, so this one has its 5th anniversary next year. It is so far the most known work by writer and director Andrew Zuchero and even if his cast here are all pretty stunning, they are also still complete nobodies like their director pretty much. In 10-15 years from now we will know if any of these young fellas managed to make it big. This film here probably won't help a great deal. We have a bunch of friends early on being bored at home and then heads start randomly exploding. I am not sure what this was, I guess despite the tragic events a comedy most of all. But I found it never funny or touching or entertaining. I also think that at the very end they moved too far away from the original setting at the start of the film. I think the looks in this short are fine, not just the stunning girls but also camera-wise etc. However, plot and story feel really unpolished and the writing would have needed more work. Thumbs-down all in all. A pretty forgettable five minutes. Don't watch.
