The Colony

Great action survival movie….too bad lots of reviews complaining about minor details. But it was made pretty clear that the real threats were running out of food and humans turning on one another. If emperor penguins can survive the cold in Antarctica by huddling together and taking turns on the outside, then obviously humans could do the same. Come on people…it’s not that hard to suspend disbelief here…. we don’t need to see every single exact & accurate detail of cold weather survival practices to enjoy this movie!

Gripping and thrilling movie that keeps on that famous edge every-one talks about. Watched it several times now it’s that good.

I'm not sure why this movie didn't get higher ratings. It's kind of a hidden gem. I loved it from before to end. It was exciting and kept you on the edge of your seat quite a lot. I've watched it 3 times and consistently recommend it to people who like that genre. I would give it a chance some parts are a little bloody but it's a good movie.

Not the best but not the worst. I think it’s funny people think they know science as one cannot see their breath when several hundreds of feet beneath the earth’s surface regardless if in ice age type weather or not. You can tell by the presence of liquid water. This is not director laziness as so much evidence would not be apparent. Also one would expect with few people left alive that someone would be stupid and ask the question “do you think this machine still works”. Obviously I know it doesn’t but I’m sure people who watched it thought “does it work?” Expecting an answer. Again not lazy directing just us assuming the best out of the lesser intellectually capable people that are more than likely present in abundance during this type of situation. Lastly, when has Hollywood ever done anything within reason. End of the world overkill scenarios, inbred people that can be stabbed multiple times, even super hero powers have been enhanced over time with Superman being able to fly instead of jump building to building (how impossible is that). If it’s fiction why should it be realistic? It is advertised as a sci-fi action film. So if a mutated humanoid can take a bullet to the head, who am I to judge/argue. I’d watch a documentary or smthng if I expected anything less. People just didn’t like it because it’s Canadian. Don’t listen to the reviews give it a watch. I know I put it off long enough bc of the “bad” reviews.

Absolut unterhaltsam… kann man sich mal ansehen.

This movie was great! It got me since the beginning. A survival team on a colony go find out for another colony on a post-apocalyptic winter.

Please don't waste your time. Really. Only way to explain is via SPOILER: In a completely frozen world with permanent snowing weather, a colony, living in a sort of fortress, receives a distress signal from another colony, 3 people leave to investigate. They travel through frozen lands, totally unequipped for the extreme cold. They spend the night inside a helicopter, no fire, no breath mist. They arrive to the colony and, of course, they find a guy that is so confused that he can: - recharge a computer; - show a video of a guy who fixed a weather tower to get the weather warm again and asking for seeds to plant; - say they sent a team to find the guy; - say that some random people followed back; BUT he cannot say the fricking word "CANNIBALS"!!! So the 3 people go looking for the random people, of course, find them butchering people of the colony and start a little a show where cannibals look at them hissing, almost unarmed, and got easily shot because they are nothing more than simpletons. BUT of course, somehow, cannibals can put some heavy difficulty on the 3 people armed with guns and rifles… One of the 3 survives and manages to escape and go back to his colony, after a night spent in the extreme cold and snow, while the 20 cannibal simpletons, some of them almost naked, easily follow his traces (that snow didn't covered) and arrive to the colony. Inside the colony there's an idiot who performed a coup d'etat and doesn't believe the only survivor (who cannot say the fricking word "CANNIBALS"!!!), so the 20 cannibal simpletons, of course, are able to destroy reinforced steel doors only with pipes and blades and go inside bringing havoc amongst people heavily armed. A lot of people die uselessly, the boss of the cannibals doesn't die after being hit 30 times on the head with an iron weapon but, in the end, he got beheaded. Survivors decide to travel to the warm area.

Original and underrated. I wish there was a sequel.

Way better than the latest, sci-fi movie-series that have been released lately.

Good cast, bad movie.
