Mar 14, 2019 Prepare for an hour of exposition. Despite being a horror "thriller" zombie film, you won' see any of the living dead for that entire time. While attempting to be gritty providing a slice-of-life view of the survivor's world of eating grubs and smearing feces on one's face, what it instead achieves is an opening that seems both banal and pointless. We are given little introduction to the characters, and seemingly everything that we are given could be assumed through storytelling that takes the pains to be direct, interesting, with clues here and there. Instead, we watch a lonely woman's morning routine in a dead world for an hour and see no other life form. It isn't an experience. It isn't refreshing, new, or deep. Maybe I was cranky when I watched it, but it felt like a real waste to have sat through an hour of a film for little to no action or plot development. See more

Poe W Dec 22, 2018 It unfortunately lacks story plot and does have a bit of weak structure, but Here Alone is still a good film for newgoers.

Anakin R Dec 2, 2018 An economical film, Here Alone uses a dark, natural setting for reticent people brooding in the middle of an apocalypse to tell an intimate and personal story. See more

George R Sep 17, 2018 As a parent with small daughters, I think this movie impacted me a lot more than it might have otherwise. The way Ann lost her family brought me to tears and the climax of the movie was infuriating to me (in the sense that the way characters dealt with what was happening). Overall I enjoyed it! See more

Hermione S Sep 3, 2018 This is really a step forward for "zombie" movies. The interesting part about Big Z is not the actual monster itself but how humans react to a complete collapse of the normal order of their lives. This movie really delivers that. There are very few scary scenes,but the ones they have are done exceptionally well. Instead, we have a wonderful character study about three people who have lost almost everything, including a part of their humanity, and their attempts to put themselves back together. It has a nice, very tense, ending that makes getting invested in their journey worth the trip. See more

Poe R Aug 30, 2018 Good suspenseful and well thought out apocalyptic movie, terrible end.
