Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe robot donkey is a Boston Dynamics 'Big Dog'. The company was owned by Google when the movie was made.
- GoofsThe movie focuses on them needing a robot to transport water, but the main character is later seen driving around in a pickup truck much larger than the robot.
The robot, and the donkey before it, was apparently needed to reach camps in the mountains where vehicles couldn't go, and they were transporting alcohol and supplies, not water.

Ernest Holm: Yeah, that is all I am saying. You do not gotta marry her. You don't wanna wait around thinking something is gonna come. Waitin' is a fucking disease. Think something? Feel something? You should *do* something. Alright?

Featured review
Decent dystopia/apocalyptic tale. Visually and tonally impressive.
First up I'd really like to counter the earlier reviewers claims that this is "A story that had true potential was crippled by a lack of character development, and the nonexistence of focus" What utter nonsense, just because a film uses subtly instead of a sledgehammer to get it's message across and credits the viewer with at least a glimmer of intelligence does not make it a bad film. On the contrary this is a fantastic film with a story arc that builds to a satisfying conclusion. Yes the pace is slow but clearly this is to enforce the ideas within the narrative, a parched existence if you will. For me the pacing wasn't an issue at all and created a pleasant tension. Visually it is stunning and the production design and the near-future technology was extremely well realised and executed. Fans of 70's sci-fi should look no further.
