Eh, I didn't really want anyone to be pure, I wanted them to be compelling as individuals beyond 'oh no, a bad thing is happening to me, I want to leave' which is not something I really got. I'd prefer the protagonists escape, but I wasn't really able to relate to them on any level beyond 'well anyone else would want to leave if they were in that situation, naturally'.

And it was a good enough car chase, but it was just so over the top to the point where I ended up tuning out. That's the weird part, the first movie with the level of realism it had to it kept me much more engaged. This felt more like a spectacle, flashy and dramatic but not really all that interesting. I like it when action tells a story; the only story this was telling was 'add more fire / ha ha cult and stuff' which was... pretty much already established early on. I didn't feel that it did much to develop the characters. I got a lot more out of the scene with the tree and them struggling to start the truck than the actual chases.

Fair enough - I think I understand your reasons for disliking it a little bit better now. It's not how I experienced the movie at all - but hey, not everything works for everyone. Sounds like you went in hoping for /expecting something else, and were disappointed when it didn't deliver, which I can understand.

+1000 to your second paragraph. I also agree with the first paragraph, though to a lesser extent.

I also found this film very much not to my taste, and just generally not as good as it had been made out to be. I found the parts that appealed to my feminist sensibilities overly obvious, and the rest was just a big "no thanks."

Were you expecting it to be primarily an action flick when you went in?
