Konterr Brilliant and touching
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Cargo" is an Australian short film from 2 years ago and it is evidence that it is still possible to bring something and refreshing to the genre of zombie films, even with so many movies and television series out there, especially very recently "The Walking Dead" of course. We see a man who has a little baby daughter and who got bitten by another zombie apparently and is about to transform himself. In an act of kindness he does all he can to save his little kid from himself and the other zombies out there. It's a nicely atmospheric movie, has some emotion and heart that is otherwise rare for the genre. I would not call it great or truly memorable, but at a really short runtime of 7 minutes, it was a good watch and I hope that Yolanda Ramke, who wrote and directed this one, can have a good career in the future. Same goes for her co-director Ben Howling. Thumbs up and a must-see if you love zombie movies. And still a good watch if you don't. And you won't have to be able to speak English as there is no dialogue in here.
atinder This is short movie, was really good, it only 7 min long A guy wakes up in his Car, there is a baby crying in the back ground and seem to come around. the look of it, he as been I a car crash, as turn to look at his wife Then she that become some kind of zombie but lucky for him she still in her seat belt.As the rest of short, is about the father trying save is baby but he turn into zombie as also find out he as been bitten.which was really good and really effect, even it's just 7 mins it's well short, it was well acted and the plot really moving and Make up effect for zombie was really good. I going to give short 8 out of 10
TBJCSKCNRRQTreviews With a solid opening(effective storytelling defined; aspiring filmmakers, take notes. Make a list of just how many things are communicated by the start of this, if you want protips), this brings us into the middle of a zombie apocalypse, with a man determined to save his infant. But there's one huge problem - he's already been bitten.When there is no more room for new takes on this subgenre, the crap will overload it. And in that situation, maybe the best thing to do is to focus on the characters, and give the audience a small-scale, personal story. It has been said that the way to determine if a monster story is good or not, is whether the creature could be removed, or at the very least replaced, and there would still be something compelling there. This, like many classical tales, succeeds that test, where many fail.The 6 and a half minute(without credits, 7 with) running time flies by. If anything, it starts out on a high note, and only gains in traction. It gets increasingly devastating as it goes. While you won't realize immediately "what is going on"(what the man is actually doing and why), once you do, it's a fantastic idea, and you cheer in an earnest way that few current productions inspire. Production values are excellent, everything feels real, the Romero-esque setting is entirely credible.There is constant disturbing content and a little bloody, brutal violence in this. I recommend this to everyone who likes undead horror. 8/10
tbirum Cargo is a 7 minute movie, so It's difficult to discuss much about the film without giving away too much of the story. What I can say is that this (short film) was crafted by very skilled hands by people who take film making seriously. The acting, concept, directing, script, special effects are all top notch. While shot on what I'm sure was a shoe string budget, It is more polished then a great deal of the movies coming out of Hollywood these days. The story is about a Father and his infant daughter who find themselves in a very dire situation and some quick thinking and a lot of luck are going to be required to see any kind of semblance of a happy ending. The film is free of Nudity, foul language, violence (on screen), or adult situations. Individuals 13 and older should have no real issues with watching this 7 minute film. I give it 10/10 because it truly is an example of great film making.
