Wow. You don't need zombies or tons of ammunition to make a good apocalypse movie. Up yours, Hollywood.
This is a bit uneven, but it gives a complete character arc for a guy at the end of life.
The debauchery is done well, although the bearded child-molester storyline isn't tied up - what happened to him at the party?
There's a touching scene where the hero parts from the girl he helped: "I'll keep watching ...", and then she disappears from the rear view mirror. So good. The scene with his mother comes second.
Rose was played well, but I think the big scene mourning her father was fluffed. It's a bit reserved - director should have made the actor run around for 60s screaming her head off before delivering the lines. Marked down a point for that.
The apocalypse is kept vague until the final scene. Works perfectly.
Pace is good. Didn't notice the music.
