Strong visuals, although it is rather easy to tell they filmed much of the movie in deciduous forest during winter, with brown leaves covering the ground. It would have been more effective filming just after a forest fire somewhere, with the ground covered in char and ashes instead. The actors could have taken the roles more seriously and lost more weight. There is a part in the movie where the child looks into a mirror and remarks, "We look skinny." Compared to obese America, yes, but compared to the rest of the world, he looked healthy enough to eat (pun intended). Other than that, they stuck to the book rather closely and come off with a pretty well done movie. Children of Men was far better, 2012 was far, far worse.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
