What if we made a science fiction movie that had a decent plot and even some acceptable CGI and special effects. Then we added actors who could at least hold their own in a B movie. Then we added a little girl who did nothing. NOTHING. Nothing throughout the entire movie but cry "dad, dad." Yes, dad, dad, dad, over and over. I counted 30 or more in the first 20 minutes of the movie. At every turn. At every tense moment. At every little opportunity, it was nothing but dad, dad, dad. Then toward the end they even made her say it in a whining voice, just to annoy us further. Seriously, if you can watch the movie and ignore the little girl, then you will not have wasted your time. As stated it has an intersting premise. Sort of "Day of the. Triffids" on steroids and with better effects.

The plants turn against us? The film began in a tedious way. And of course, I knew the film would be about the man trying to survive with his little daughter, as plants growing beating hearts try to swallow them. It looked depressing, slow, annoying, and predictable. Seen on Tubi, the free streaming site, which now has live TV.

Very fun film, i was very sceptical as usual with these chinese films with no other reviews, but my risk paid off!

The film basically follows a father and daughter + some military guys on a journey to complete their mission.

As we all know chinese cgi can sometimes be a bit ropey, that is somewhat true here but its more than serviceable, however some of it is really good and the scenery of the overgrown/postapocalyptic city is the star of the show, i was truley amazed at the visuals.

The plant/monster things were very cool.

The story and how things develop is very cliche and very hollywood which for me isnt a bad thing, why fix what isnt broke right.

Overal a solid action sci/fi post apocalypse film.
