    I love this movie. It's brilliant, very Canadian, with an amazing cast and a uniquely sedate take on apocalypse.

    I rented this film because somebody told me that I look like the main character. I am glad that I did. The film is very original from start to finish. This film has an intriguing premise that motivates several engaging characters, and the pacing of the movie gives it a dreamlike quality that is compelling and interesting to watch.

    The narrative emphasizes coincidences, but they're nicely understated. If it didn't seem gimmicky and self-indulgent...the movie might be more affecting.

    A smart and somber little film with some decent performances and a few sharp observations about function and futility, but I can't help wishing that the picture, like it's characters, had not gone quite so gentle into that good night.
  3. Though the film is dark and the ideas run deep, it's perversely fun to think about.
