Review of Cargo (2017) by Grantd243 — 30 May 2018
Cargo is one of the first Netflix distributed films that I've actually enjoyed. It is a pretty paint by numbers zombie film, but there is the twist that instead of the main character looking for a cure, or just trying to survive, he has to try and secure a new home for his daughter before his infection kills him (and then turns him into a zombie).
Martin Freeman is great as always and Simone Landers (who plays the young tribal girl) was surprisingly good. The problem I have with this film is that nothing about it is particularly great. It's just.
..okay. Also, for a film that's not much longer than 100 minutes, the story has some real slow points where I started to lose some interest...but then the final act brought me back. Overall, Cargo is a perfectly "okay" film, it just doesn't stand out in any specific way.
