SHE DRIVES ME CRAZY AND I CAN'T HELP MYSELF
11 November 2018
Warning: Spoilers
The government(s) create "Noah Ark Facilities" in order to survive the "tyranny" as hybrid nuclear and chemical weapons destroy life on earth. Two people are tasked with waking up every six months and perform checks, then go back to sleep. Bauer (Norman Reedus) likes porn and masturbation. Cartwright (Djimon Hounsou) imagines and talks to his wife (Sandrine Holt). Cartwright's sleeper unit becomes damaged which sets the plot in motion as our two try to find a fix.

Oh yes, if you come out of the "high tech coffin" unit too fast, the oxygen transition can effect the brain.

This is a slow paced two man (and one imagined woman) drama with a sci-fi background. It is a character study. The scant details of what happened comes about 20 minutes into the movie. A twist? Sure. The main problem is that we see the same two guys. Eventually I came to dislike Bauer and pity Cartwright, finding myself rooting for someone who may be a touch mentally ill.

Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.
