Open Grave (2013)
4/10
Predictable, too fast-paced and a bit superficial
4 January 2014
I want to start off by saying that this film really has a lot going for it visually, which lifts the film a great deal. Sharlito Copley in the lead was a great choice, but I don't feel any of the actors did anything beyond staying afloat in terms of how believable they were. Kind of superficial, and very hard to get into when the film got emotional.

Like many have written before me, the film got predictable very soon, and I was left waiting for it to end. It has a ton of boring clichés and some elements that I think were too inspired from other films (28 days/weeks later, Memento, I Am Legend, any zombie/plague film). I want to point that the story had some potential, but it just got cluttered and messy for me both in acting and story. 5/10.
