This might sound a bit strange, but remember The Matrix?
The bit where Neo is receiving instructions from Morpheus on how to escape from his office workplace?
That's the type of thing going on here: do this. Do that. Jump now. Get on this train. Drive at speed straight ahead (with all the lights turning green). And so forth and so on...
Maybe also a touch of Skynet about it all...

The plot: When an inner-city Detroit foster mother (Fionnula Flanagan) is murdered in a botched holdup, four of her now-grown adopted children suspect it was no random killing. Rising musician Jack (Garrett Hedlund), former-Marine Angel (Tyrese Gibson), hotheaded hockey player Bobby (Mark Wahlberg) and settled-down husband and father Jeremiah (André Benjamin) go on the hunt for neighborhood criminal kingpin Victor Sweet (Chiwetel Ejiofor) while being trailed themselves by the local beat cops.
The cast is good, the action is good, the suspense is good and its a good thriller.
Natalie Portman recommended Cloud Atlas in Books (curated)

First of all this ain't no horror film,its a thriller with some odd looking creatures in it and secondly how did this family survive whatever apocalypse happen to come along and wipe out humanity.A little bit of a backstory would have helped.
I didn't find the creatures that frightening or intimidating,how could they rip through a metal grain silo but not in the car when the kids happened to be inside it.Hopefully the sequel will be an improvement

Angelina Jolie (in full own action girl mode) capably holds her own in this, with a supporting cast that included the likes of Liev Schrieber and Chiwetel Ejiofor (and a pre Brooklyn-99 Andre Braugher popping up in a small role), in a film that doesn't outstay its welcome and was seemingly made for more (as yet unmade) sequels!
