Reviews forThis Is Not a Test
It, in fact, put my patience to the test.
One thing that kept pulling me out of the experience is how the characters seem more preoccupied with hooking up than actually dealing with the apocalypse around them. Instead of focusing on survival or trying to figure out what to do next, their priorities feel strangely misplaced. When you’re watching a zombie movie, you expect tension, danger, and at least some sense of urgency. But here, none of that really shows up. Instead of thrilling moments or clever attempts to survive, we mostly get a group of teenagers stuck inside their school doing nothing while waiting to be rescued. There’s barely any effort to prepare, fight back, or even understand the situation they’re in. In the end, it just feels like a missed opportunity. With a premise like this, the film could have delivered suspense and chaos. Instead, it mostly settles for boredom.
