This is the scariest movie I've ever watched in my life.
It’s scary, definitely only need to watch once..
I am no stranger to nuclear holocaust in movies but this really hits me differently, more personal, and fair bit more upsetting
Stunning and thoughtful and tragic and hopeless. Unique in every way but depressing in every way as well. Must see if you’re ready to cry...
A soul-crushing animated flick. Emotional as hell
Perfect allegory of the effects of a nuclear Holocaust onto the innocent. What a tearjerking film.
So so jarring, yet you get hooked so fast.
My heart went out to the old couple who are horribly unprepared for this worst case scenario.
What did just happend? This must be the most stupid and nice people to experience such a thing. So funny and so depressing in the same time.
Brilliantly animated drama movie, harrowing and moving but fascinating too. Worth seeing
