In a desolate landscape, hand-to-hand combat featuring improvised weapons rules the land. What's more interesting than that is how the film creates its mythos around itself. At first, the hero doesn't speak because he's alone. Then nobody in groups talk to eachother - an unspoken method of tried-and-true actions dictate their behaviour? Then you realise that nobody is talking to anybody and by then, the amazing visuals and curious nature of his quest have drawn you in.
My only criticism is that the ending doesn't wrap things up - or leave things open ended enough - to be truly satisfying.
