Take Shelter

[Brigand]

Saw a pretty good film earlier called Take Shelter.

It's about a family man who starts getting visions of an apocalyptic storm approaching, and in reaction he starts to make a storm shelter in his garden.

He soon realises that he has a history of mental illness in his family, and starts to wonder if these visions are real, or are they a part of the onset of this illness?

A very well filmed movie, with a nice ending that makes you think.

Worth a watch I'd say.

Agreed, really good, engrossing film with excellent performances.

Not sure about the ending being 'nice'!

Michael Shannon is a very good actor. Would love to watch this film.

Watched the first hour of this whilst on the train on my way home a couple of weeks back. Fell asleep and haven't bothered to finish it TBH.

The problem now is I remember so little about it I'd have to start at the beginning again...

I meant nice as in a bit of a twist, rather than fluffy kittens nice. It was late when I wrote it!

Gets my vote too.

It's beautifully shot, very well scripted and acted.

I was hoping for more zombies. And possibly a car chase.
