Description: The Survivalist 2021 is an English-language action thriller film available for download in 480p, 720p, and 1080p.
The story unfolds a year and a half after civilization collapses due to a deadly viral outbreak. A former FBI agent is thrust into the role of protector for a young woman believed to be immune to the disease. She is pursued by a ruthless gang leader who seeks to exploit her immunity for a potential cure.
The narrative follows Sarah (Ruby Modine) and her brother Guy (Tom Pecinka) as they flee from a gang of armed hunters, known as “land pirates,” led by Aaron (John Malkovich). Tragically, Guy does not survive, but Sarah manages to find refuge with Ben (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), the titular survivalist and a former FBI agent. Ben is living in isolation on his family farm, haunted by flashbacks of his troubled past with his father, Heath (Julian Sands). When Aaron and his gang arrive at the farm, Ben must defend Sarah with limited resources, including his dwindling supply of ammunition.
Directed by Jon Keeyes and written by Matthew Rogers, the film also stars John Malkovich. While the story attempts to build tension, it is hindered by overly frequent and somewhat irrelevant flashbacks. Despite its ambitious scope, the film falls short of delivering a fully satisfying experience. The gritty visual style and uneven performances further detract from its potential, though it’s notable to see Jonathan Rhys Meyers return to the screen after a series of less prominent roles.
