Review of The After

The After (2014 TV Movie)
4/10
Interesting Setup, Lazy Writing
12 March 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Hardly anything the characters do make any sense.

  • Oh, that guy's been shot in the gut... should we help him? Stop the bleeding maybe? Nah, it's a gut wound... he's already dead... because apparently we live in the 1800s and this is now the wild west????


  • Let's escape out of the city, and I'll hang onto the back of this ambulance for NO REASON AT ALL!


  • I'm so stressed out about the power outages and panicked people. Guess it's time to get naked and swim in a pool.


And how the characters overcome obstacles seems miraculous sometimes.

  • Large crowd of people surrounding my ambulance, well, just hit the gas pedal and look! They're all gone now!


The writing is just lazy. I want the show to continue and I want to find out what's going on. However, if the writing continues to be this bad, then it doesn't bode well that the reveal will be anything special.
