Critics Consensus

Extinction has a few intriguing ideas, but they -- and some game performances from its talented stars -- are lost in the movie's muddled plot and frustrating pacing.

"The Walking Dead" must really be leaving its mark on the entire zombie subgenre.

Vivas tries to add a family-drama twist to an otherwise standard survival story, but the characters aren't complex enough (and the secrets aren't explosive enough) to elevate this beyond a basic zombie flick.

2/5

The film's core problems: too little zombie and too much plot.

On paper it sounds quite good and... I had high expectations for it, something that surely has influenced how it ended up being such a huge disappointment. [Full Review in Spanish]

5/10

They tried to create something with a deeper story focusing on the survivors, while also updating the zombies into something more terrifying. Unfortunately, it just fell a bit flat.

Extinction has an interesting spin on the zombies themselves and does a good job of featuring two very different ways to live out the zombie apocalypse, but ultimately adds little life to the subgenre.

Film davvero pessimo, sia per le sequenze di azione poco sensate, sia per una sceneggiatura deficitaria soprattutto nello sviluppo dei rapporti tra i personaggi, sia per praticamente tutte le sequenze girate all'aperto che risultano incredibilmente artificiali. Peccato perchè la trama avrebbe anche un paio di idee interessanti tra cui lo sviluppo degli zombie. Molto fastidiosa la maggior parte dei dialoghi e dei comportamenti dei personaggi.

Not the most original zombie movie, but I found it decent enough. The post-apocalyptic setting gives it a nice atmosphere, and there are some tense survival moments. The characters and story could've been stronger, and it doesn't do much to stand out from similar films. Still, I had a decent time watching it and wouldn't call it a waste of time.

I feel the 1 star reviews a little unfair, don’t know if it’s because it’s not your normal zombie flick but the monsters are creepy and the acting is good. If you like these kind of moves and are looking to kill an afternoon it’s not a bad choice.

Fun monsters buried by unnecessary drama. No moral payoff. Not really a horror movie, unless you take into account given child abduction with coercive intimacy.

Great acting and storyline. One my of my favorite zombie movies. It has perfect mix of horror, gore and suspense. I don't understand why it has so many bad reviews. :(
