Perfect Sense

Ewan McGregor, Eva Green

A fresh idea for the apocalypse, beautifully executed. This is the film Blindness should have been.

An unexplained pandemic races through the earth's population one step at a time, each stage depriving all of a sense...first smell, then taste, then the others. We follow a nascent couple trying to deal with each other and the disease. Details of the epidemic strain credibility but the focus on the changing human relationships as a result were moving and well thought out.

Both leads were excellent...direction first rate...supporting characters spot on...an intelligent film about humanity facing one of the many possible endgames in store for us.
