I just got back from seeing Dying Breed and it was quite a mixed bag.
It took at least 50 minutes for the main action to begin. The first act got repetitive, dull and boring quickly as our four main characters seemed to do nothing and just chat. Don't get me wrong, I love character development, but they could have taken about ten minutes off the first act. There were many pointless scenes.
The other bad factor was the acting. Leigh Whannel sadly gave a poor performance, as well as all the other members in the group of four.
Onto the good, the gore was excellent and the film had that raw and gritty feel to it. Some scenes were creepy and disturbing. Also, the ending was very good and a fitting climax to the film.
Overall, this is an above average Aussie horror with many flaws and clichés, but still manages to entertain. A very generous 7/10.
