Leave the World Behind, Sam Esmail, 2023
From the novel by Rumaan Alam, an apocalyptic thriller with clear Shyamalan influences and Barack Obama's advice on the screenplay which made some scenarios more probable. The story of a humanity blindly in free fall, an unidentified enemy, confusing information and hence panic, fear, preconceptions, prejudices, inertia, mistrust.
A mass self-destruction whose only person responsible is man with his lies, isolation, hypocrisy and total lack of transparency and trust towards others. Men who hate other men even though they know that, in the end, if everything fails, they will be left to themselves and then they will have to be satisfied, trust and rely so as not to become extinct.
Amanda Sanford, a misanthropic woman who works at an advertising company, decides to take her family to a rented house on Long Island for an unplanned vacation. Her husband Clay is a professor and her two teenage children, 13-year-old Rose and 16-year-old Archie, are obsessed with technology. Once they arrive, they realize they have no cell phone connection. Rose, who followed Friends, can't watch the last episode of the tenth season. While the family relaxes on a nearby beach, an oil tanker suddenly runs aground on land. Disturbed, they return home, only to realize that neither the television nor the wi-fi are usable.
If man is the poison, then there is good hope that he can also be the antidote. And when even the most advanced technology crashes, there will remain those trusted "Friends" who respond to the mantra of 'I'll be there for you', because real friends remain and do not go out of fashion, like iconic TV series and capable DVDs. to create connections beyond connections.
Film with current and interesting ideas, not very original but holds up.
I was deeply engrossed in the movie when I saw it. The suspense, the vibe....geez, and then the end. I liked our things turned out.
I like a lot this one 🙌

I love this statement, I mean it got the whole of me. Men can destroy but they can build as well. You just need to be connected to the right ones who are antidotes instead of poison.
