![]() "Chernobyl Diaries" is set in the city of Prypiat that once housed the workers of the Chernobyl nuclear reactor, the horror-thriller follows a group of friends who, while vacationing in Europe, find themselves stranded in the abandoned city only to discover that they are not alone. |

I think she was meaning the poster design and the font that they used. I can kind of see why since theyre similar....well, sort of. |

I was pretty unimpressed with this one. I thought the setting did all of the work, and the plot was really uninspired. There are so many more interesting things that they could have done with the setting. The only thing that I kind of liked was the way they were able to recreate Pripyat so cheaply. It's obvious that they are not actually filming in the real place, but they did a good job making it look believable enough if you don't know what it looks like in real life. |

This was SO much better than some people made it out to be. I saw it a few months after it's theater release (Thank you Viooz!) and I must say I loved it. The acting was surprisingly good, the atmosphere was creepy and unsettling and every minute was a roller coaster ride! I wish it was a bit longer and had a bit more blood and grit but it was really well-made! 8/10 |

THANK! YOU! While the characters and acting didn't do much for me, I thought it was very well shot, had a couple of jolting scares (ineffective after the first time sadly), and so on. It just needed some more blood and gore. The 86 min. runtime doesn't bother me since it was well paced for the most part. |

Despite what could've been a great effort, this one turned out to be a slight disappointment overall. The film's biggest flaw here is the absolute inability to know what it wants to be, as the trials and tribulations of the group inside the city are just dull in comparison to what comes after, but the fact that all we get is a single line in Russian about the protagonists yet are never given any sort of evidence during the film to support the diagnosis since it shows several other particular efforts as to what could happen rather than what was announced at the end. This is aided by the fact that they're hardly ever seen anyway and get very little screen-time, the majority of the film featuring them running around in the radioactive areas battling other threats than what we're told, and the incredibly poor decision-making to constantly keep themselves in danger for the expense of the movie's sake is another big blow here. It has some fine set-pieces at times and gets in some great atmospheric moments in the later half, but overall this one is just too disappointing to really get better. |

Do illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup? Some people are like slinkies: not good for anything, but you can't help but laugh when one falls down the stairs. My review blog: http://donshorrormovieblog.blogspot.com/ | |

This was decent. Solid atmosphere and suspense. The death order is definitely fairly surprising. And I did like the lead guy
