Those willing to give No Future a chance will find it to be a fairly smart and realistic depiction of two people consumed by grief, guilt, and loss and the misguided ways by which they attempt to come to terms with those feelings. Read full review

Good performances, good story. Everything seems well laid out and as I said, this drama is one of those that hits, however it's also too predictable and conventional.
It turns out that the mold of its entire structure is already too well seen.… Expand
