Started watching “Leave the world behind” last night. Only half way through but pretty good so far!

I enjoyed watching it too, nice and doomy.
Thumbs up from me
It was good; didn’t think the end was as bad as reviews were saying.

Interesting. I found the people to be relatable and acting exactly as I imagine someone would act in their situation.
What specifically did you find alien?
Keep in mind I haven’t finished watching yet. Plz no spoilers
There will be mild spoilers. Watch faster!
The owners come to their AirBnB and let their clients guess around before sharing what's up.
The father who talks about all kind of stuff while his son is severely ill on the back seat. Whatever can cause such symptoms probably would kill the kid within two days, yet daddy is kind of not all too excited.
The prepper gets all confrontational instead of proudly helping with advice at least. Preppers know they can't defend their stash all alone running out on their porch with a gun more than once, yet this confrontation is then presented as an example of citizens turning on each other.
The kids immediately forget the incident on the beach. Kids would be all excited about something like this and tell at least each other again and again what was going on. They would be excited about stuff they had to leave on the beach or something.
There were so many instances where I just thought this was wrong. Father not offering a ride to wherever he was going to the woman in the field ... she would probably have known where he was. Oh, this father was pathetic in every possible way.
Too many spoilers. Not reading till I finish watching.
So ... how was it?
I liked it. Agree a bit about the neighbor but it’s hard to tell how some people will react under stress. I’ve seen some strange behavior from people in the state of shock. Being under attack could be a strong enough trigger to get defensive quickly.
The scenes and transitions were great. Overall story good and the score kept me in it; though a bit overdone at times. There’s humor too and some randomness that makes it feel real.
I did have many questions- like what happened to all the people. Did he live THAT remote? Some parts did feel over the top like deer all staring at the women. What was that about? 😆 but overall entertaining and well made.
It was entertaining, yes.
The deer staring at the women was mother nature totally getting all details about the ongoing cyber attack and trying to tell them how to fix it.
