Fun, but a little inconsistent. I like a good disaster/apocalypse flick, and Survive handles its key scenes pretty well. What I don't like are the "humanity is its own worst enemy" storylines, and sadly there's a bit too much of that here, which makes the middle part of the film less exciting.
Considering the limited budget the film looks decent and the build-up of dread is effective. The performances are good enough and the start and finish are entertaining genre fun. I wish the film had found a way to keep the middle part fully engaging, but that has more to do with personal preference. Not bad.
