3.5/5

2/5
Ashfall isn't terrible, though a long list of other films have done more with the same formula. Given the cast and the budget, the film really should have been better, or at least more fun, and it's hard not to be underwhelmed by the results. Go to Full Review
John Berra Screen International Jun 26, 2020

Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Jan 21, 2020
3.5/5
