Started Strong finished Bad


For this type of movie IMO this movie started great. It was better than Hostel or any of these others I would be interested in actually seeing Chernobyl. Once the second half went underway it lost control...spoilers...Doctors were in charge of the mutants..experiments with no explanation. Idk about anyone else but it could of been better. It wasn't as bad as everyone makes it but is Flawed! Add more to the second half and Jeeze 13 miles is not that far come on the whole team could of made it there in 12 hours of daylight.

Agreed

I think the film is decent but flawed.

I think the exact opposite: the first half hour was rather boring, after that it became very tense, scary, desperate and thrilling.
Also, a "bad end" does not necessarily make a bad ending, if you know what I mean.

I respect your opinion but disagree with it.

I agree that a bad end doesn't make it a bad ending.

I just thought the second half was a mess and the first half was interesting and was leading up to some great tension. Then when the tension broke it just turned into a mutant storyline with no real explanation.
