I thought this was great. I have no clue why the critic review are so bad. I feel like they just didn't understand the ending. SPOILER ALERT. Walters message was obviously pre recorded
"400 Days" is to "10 Cloverfield Lane" as "Deep Star 6" was to "Abyss." The writers heard the basic idea and said, "Yeah, we can do that easy." No, you really can't.

Like 10 CFL, it starts with the craziness of isolation, and the audience can feel the storm building, but when it breaks, it comes in a way that could have been interesting, but in the end devolves into cliche post-apocalyptic stupid.

I could've lived with the cheap sets, I've seen amazing sci-fi made on a tiny budget before (Moon, Monsters, 3%), but there was no redeeming quality here. Just skip this one, it's a waste of time.…Expand
