The Fallout is a devastating portrait of survivors of a school shooting. It's an adaptation that feels like a true extension of the games, and it's a post-apocalyptic blast for newcomers and longtime fans alike.
The film stars Jenna Ortega as Vada, a high school student who survives a school shooting. In the aftermath, she struggles to cope with her trauma and the loss of her friends. She finds solace in a group of fellow survivors, and together they try to rebuild their lives.
The Fallout is a powerful and moving film. It's a must-see for anyone who has been affected by gun violence, and it's a reminder of the importance of speaking out against this senseless tragedy.
