A RECKONING REVIEWED
“A Reckoning” finds a man wandering around an empty landscape. No other people are alive, so he builds straw men and women to take their place. At points, you’ll think he’s insane. However, there’s an emotional honesty to his need for companionship that suggests something far worse. If you thought “Threads” needed a solitary focus, this will do it for you. While the film wasn’t that long, it took so much to hang in there. Sometimes, you can make something so depressing that it’s physically taxing to watch.
That being said, check it out. Fans of dystopian fiction will want to see it.
