after watching

It's a good movie with an anti-war theme.
This film also reminded me of a German "Death Experiment", which is about how human beings react when they are isolated from society and without ethical and moral constraints.
Sam, the heroine's boyfriend in the film, left a deep impression on me. He was cowardly and incompetent. In the environment in the film, he still had no blood at all, even a woman. In the end, after getting the gun , actually shot at innocent people. Of course, it is revealed in the film that he is a lawyer and needs to be reasonable, but that is only the past. In an environment without ethical and moral constraints, far from the civilized world, human desires are infinitely magnified. Even more savage than primitive society, which eventually led to his tragedy.
The heroine's actions at the end of the film are unexpected but reasonable. In such an environment, there is only one protective suit. Anyone will give up others for their own lives, and any pity will make them lose their only one. chance of survival...
but did she escape? No! She escapes into the ruins of a city where all humans have been irradiated to death...
