Would be interesting if were more concern about details. The writer of this film should attend some more history classes before try to do history movies

I'm Portuguese, and the "portuguese" spoken in the movie, is not from any portuguese country that I know. And there is good actors in Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, Guinea, Bissau, S. Tome and Principe, East Timor and even Macau. But all actors depicted in this movie, are not European Portuguese, not even Brazilian.. And I didn't understood any of the "Portuguese" they spoke. That's awful.

By the way, US was far from even dream to be an independent country. How can be refered "American" some 100 years before American Independence?

If we forget history rubbish, the movie is a good exercise for Viola Davis. Powerful. Great equilibrium as an General, Queen as well as a mother. My 5 stars is for her.

And series episode's since I've seen this one for the first time, when I was a kid about 10 or 11. Well, just to say that I don't remember about the 3 or 4 movies that I saw last weekend. But I remember this one episode for all my life.

One of the best horror episodes I've ever seen (and Yes, I'am an horror fan). The effects are from the 70s, even so, terryfing with that monster eating and regurgitating people. That half of the episode comented in the 3rd person by Dr. Helena is almost an anthology epic in 10 minutes.

Don't know enough from movie scripts to have sure, but I'd say David Lynch take many notes from this one, to make "Alien" storyline, some 5 years after.

When a picture marks someone for life, that's quality. A rare and deserved 10.

Yes! Gave it 9. Hard movie this one. Shymalan's movies are famous for their twists. However, this one, have none. Is all about a terryfing concept. Save humanity or the ones we love. Seeing the movie, I don't have any answer. That's what makes this movie so unconfortable. No bad guys. No good guys. All have their reasons! And makes us think what would be our choice in a apocalipthic scenario. Save the world? Save our beloved ones? Condemn everyone? I don't know. Do you?

As for the movie itself, credible play from Dave Bautista. Not easy to level such amount of muscle and sensibility. The tension build up is also fantastic. Decisions have to be made, and the viewer is compeled to take sides. Although uncertain which one to take.

Good visual effects here and there, but the movie lives for his absolute new concept of thinking. Tough one...

This movie is an insult to millions and millions of people nowadays, and through history, that live in miserable and extreme conditions.

We have a fairly confortable house, lots of blankets, clothes, a fireplace, timber, flamable itens, even gas and water running, and go beserk about freezing?

All events and decisions defy simple logic.

Plus, for all we know about the storyline, the events run for a period of some days. Maybe a week, maximum? It's stupid!

Having someone in the group with some degree in healthcare, turns things even more non-sense.

Stanley Kubrik, in his "Shining" must be laughing in his grave about this. John Carpenter surely is having some seizure, to make a movie about true horror in the extreme conditions of the Antartic, and no one was bothered about the cold.

But this group of youngters, managed to go harakiri in a cosy house...

No words for such garbage.

The 3 rating was for the ambiance and soundtrack. Not bad. The rest... you're on your own to see it.

Don´t know what movies have some users seen to give a 1 rate to this one. Surely it wasn't "Titanic 666" with the same Jamie Bamber. If this was 1, that one must be minus 5 or 6.

It's not a masterpiece like Neil Marshall's "Dog Soldiers" or "The descent", but yet, it's entertaining, with a good pace of action, that keeps the viewer wanting to see the next scene.

Although the story is somewhat predictable, with the usual boring cliché of sacrifying a whole party to save a doomed character, the last scene has a fine tension construction, with the "heroes" having to fight monsters, afghan insurgents and army intelligence at the same time. Claustrophobic at least!

This one is not going to win an Academy Award, but for horror movie fans, is a time well spent.
