It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

I remember choosing the book when I was at school for O'level exams 47 years ago and it was obviously written to be suitable for young teenagers. The story in the film didn't relate to the book. I wanted to relive my enjoyment of it but was disappointed. Having said that, I did enjoy the film,the acting and story, but it wasn't Z for Zachariah.

A beautiful young woman (Survivor #1) lives alone in a magical valley that has survived a nuclear holocaust. She is a domestic goddess, as well as being hot.A research scientist (Survivor #2) stumbles into the valley and she nurses him back to health after he dives in a radioactive pool. Love begins to blossom, but he resists it, saying it will change everything, and they must take their time. He also confesses that he may have shot her little brother who was dying of radiation. Her passion is not killed by this, however.Another survivor (#3)- who is hotter than Survivor #2 (well it is Chris Pine) - oh, and not black either, like #2 - turns up, and helps him build a water wheel to provide electricity for the woman's refrigerator so she can survive the next winter. They have to break down the small chapel her father built. She is pleased about the fridge.In the meantime she and Survivor man #3 cannot resist having sex. Survivor #2 says it's ok, in spite of his love. We're set up for fireworks.Up to now, ZfZ has been pretty good; maybe a little slow, but so was Manon Des Sources, of which this is a little reminiscent.SPOILER HERE: The ending is that Survivor #2 kills Survivor #3, and tells #1 that #3 just walked off. #1 and #2 resume their life together, awkwardly.WHAT? If she had just fallen down a hole so that Survivor #2's murder of Survivor #3 had been futile, it would have been satisfying. Or she had developed radiation poisoning. Or become pregnant. Or anything. Instead, Nothing. What a let-down. But an enjoyable ride.

Preacher's daughter Ann Burden (Margot Robbie) survives a nuclear apocalypse alone with her dog. Her family had left to search for other survivors. She scavenges supplies from the nearby abandoned town. One day, she encounters John Loomis (Chiwetel Ejiofor). He gets sick from contaminated water and she nurses him back to health. There is tension especially with her religious beliefs but they grow closer. Then, another stranger named Caleb (Chris Pine) appears out of nowhere.Robbie is the it girl right now although her role would be played more effective by a more mousy, quiet actor. She needs to be a plain tomboy and possibly rougher. She doesn't seem to be doing any specific accent which leaves the location unknown. The stripped down plot is effective. It's a slow start and needs a better way to pull in the audience. It should follow Loomis at the start as he escapes the devastation. That would be compelling although it may be beyond the no-budget production. Once the triangle is formed at midway, the movie picks up a little steam. It's an apocalyptic movie not for the usual fans.

In my modest opinion it is an underrated movie. Of course it has it's mistake but still had shown us some good things. you will go through the interesting life of three characters who have fallen in love triangle which was pretty exciting and interesting for me and this was introduced by many great ways.To start with the soundtrack which was great and made us blend with the events. Then we cannot deny the great performance by both Margot Robbie who proved to me that she is a great actress and Chiwetel Ejiofor who is one of my favorite actors, Chris Pine wasn't bad but he wasn't as good as them. The Maestro of this piece is Craig Zobel who has shown to us his own personality in his work and he has a respectable view who I totally loved.You live 90 minutes of love struggling which ended in the best way it could by showing us that love is always the same whatever the world is.
