"The Tribe" is a very well done movie that takes place after a catastrophic plague of some kind. The illness is never fully revealed, giving the film a very realistic "from the survivior's viewpoint" feel to it. The main characters, three sisters, are alone on the ranch their parents set up. I do not want to give away any spoliers. Positives: Very well written. Great human interaction drama. Superb acting, especially by the three female leads. Excellent plot. Surprise twists and a very haunting ending. Negatives: The rifle that is used is an interesting piece, but its functionality in the setting is not as accurate as might be expected. As a sport shooter (I do not use black powder) I just ignored the mechanics and stayed with the story line. I guess for some, the rifle's use might be a stumbling block. Had it been a bolt action hunting rifle the setting and scenes would have been exactly the same. Otherwise, I found no other negatives to this very engaging and thoughtful movie. My grade, a solid A movie
