After chemical weapons have ruined the Earth's air supply, the government kept a group of talented humans alive within a well built sanctuary. They sleep as two men, Bauer and Cartwright, wake for a brief time of span protect these humans. While they are awake they have to fall asleep in a specialized chamber before the air runs out.
This film was written and directed by Christian Cantamessa. The predictable plot of the story remains fairly simple, but this relies heavily on its characters and their backstory. However, I think it would've done better had they switched a few things about the characters. It also would've helped if the story opened itself to more philosophical questions instead of trying to create more action. The backdrop used for this added the tension the film needed. The music and the backdrop images give this film an old science fiction feel. Fortunately, the performances of its leading actors rescues the film. Norman Reedus played the role of Bauer. His performance created the perfect character that you enjoy hating. Djimon Hounsou played the role of Cartwright. His emotional performance balanced Reedus'.
I give this film 2 out of 5 stars! There are some great qualities in this film; like its performances and its backdrop. However, the story hinders it.
This film can be seen on DVD.
