Fear the Walking Dead confuses "subtle" with "the cast forgot to act".

[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in Fear the Walking Dead?
Honestly, Fear the Walking Dead would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Fear the Walking Dead?
Just got out of Fear the Walking Dead and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

Hot Take: Fear the Walking Dead's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Director clearly thought Fear the Walking Dead was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.
