justincward A beautiful young woman (Survivor #1) lives alone in a magical valley that has survived a nuclear holocaust. She is a domestic goddess, as well as being hot.A research scientist (Survivor #2) stumbles into the valley and she nurses him back to health after he dives in a radioactive pool. Love begins to blossom, but he resists it, saying it will change everything, and they must take their time. He also confesses that he may have shot her little brother who was dying of radiation. Her passion is not killed by this, however.Another survivor (#3)- who is hotter than Survivor #2 (well it is Chris Pine) - oh, and not black either, like #2 - turns up, and helps him build a water wheel to provide electricity for the woman's refrigerator so she can survive the next winter. They have to break down the small chapel her father built. She is pleased about the fridge.In the meantime she and Survivor man #3 cannot resist having sex. Survivor #2 says it's ok, in spite of his love. We're set up for fireworks.Up to now, ZfZ has been pretty good; maybe a little slow, but so was Manon Des Sources, of which this is a little reminiscent.SPOILER HERE: The ending is that Survivor #2 kills Survivor #3, and tells #1 that #3 just walked off. #1 and #2 resume their life together, awkwardly.WHAT? If she had just fallen down a hole so that Survivor #2's murder of Survivor #3 had been futile, it would have been satisfying. Or she had developed radiation poisoning. Or become pregnant. Or anything. Instead, Nothing. What a let-down. But an enjoyable ride.
Ahmed Okasha In my modest opinion it is an underrated movie. Of course it has it's mistake but still had shown us some good things. you will go through the interesting life of three characters who have fallen in love triangle which was pretty exciting and interesting for me and this was introduced by many great ways.To start with the soundtrack which was great and made us blend with the events. Then we cannot deny the great performance by both Margot Robbie who proved to me that she is a great actress and Chiwetel Ejiofor who is one of my favorite actors, Chris Pine wasn't bad but he wasn't as good as them. The Maestro of this piece is Craig Zobel who has shown to us his own personality in his work and he has a respectable view who I totally loved.You live 90 minutes of love struggling which ended in the best way it could by showing us that love is always the same whatever the world is.
Billy Workman If this film has one thing going for it, it's the sheer lack of thought put into it. I will tell you now, I have not read the book, but I know enough to know it does not follow it AT ALL.Z for Zachariah asks questions, but answers the ones that are not important. The name is also total bullshit, because there isn't a character in Z for Zachariah, named Zachariah.The characters are dull. The plot is drawn out (There is only so much you can do with three characters) The atmosphere is non- existent, The pacing is so slow, I felt blood pooling in my legs after the 80th minute.By all means, the story that is being tried to tell, was not the story you wanted. If you find this movie for over a dollar, don't buy it. It's one of the most slow, drawn out movies, with an ending that will leave you unsatisfied. Case closed.
Desertman84 Beauteous Margot Robbie stars in an apocalyptic tale in Z For Zachariah.Together with Chiwetel Ejiofor and Chris Pine,it tells a story of a young woman who finds herself to be the last woman surviving on earth.This film directed by Craig Zobel is based on the book of the same title by Robert C. O'Brien.After the nuclear war have occurred,a young woman Ann Burden finds herself on her own and has had thoughts about being the last person remaining on earth.But later,she is relieved to discover another living person in John Loomis,who happens to be a scientist that has been extremely affected by radiation exposure.He is also in search for others just like her.They become close friends and started doing things together.They almost started to have sex but Loomis rejects the idea to avoid problems later.After they discover some their foods being stolen,they get to realize that there exist another survivor in Caleb.All three develop into a close relationship with Caleb and Ann later having sex which Loomis rejects.Then,tensions arises which brings problems to their bond.This was definitely an ambitious project of telling a post apocalyptic tale.The idea could be really interesting especially with what happened to the planet during the end of the world.Too bad that the story become a little bit simplistic that mainly focuses on the characters of the allegedly three remaining people on earth who got to know each other and awkwardly got involved in a love triangle.Also,the story development is somewhat too slow and boring.Other things could be further explored but too bad is the movie just tells the story of three remaining people in the world and nothing more.
