This is a lackluster, low budget, post-apocalyptic attempt at cool action that almost becomes decent. The acting is stage quality for the most part, and while the story has good bones it doesn’t have the writing to carry it through. The film plays fast and loose with the rules of its world and doesn’t rely on them to drive the story or play heavily into its characters, which makes impotent one of its stronger points — the setting. There are enough good bones to this movie, however, that I would be very interested in seeing a big budget remake.

Closest comparison: It’s like Domino (2005) by way of The Book of Eli, but with a much smaller budget.

Setting: Western
Plot: Sci-Fi
Tone: Action
