Right At Your Door

Just saw the new movie release, Right At Your Door. It's a look at the personal experiences of a married couple on the day that several "dirty bombs" go off in LA.
Verdict: nah
The film isn't badly made, but the plot is based on drivel. The "science" involved is typical movie bollocks, and that ruins it. A couple of large bombs go off in downtown LA, and one at the airport, and the entire city gets coated with toxic dust. Yeah, right.
Then, they couldn't decide whether the bomb contained "toxins" or "hybrid viruses" or other similar nonsense.
And the twist at the end was just plain stupid. But I won't spoil it for you.
A wasted opportunity to make a really good thriller. Anyone seen anything good lately?
