Morning Patrol is a subdued yet powerfully written dystopian drama that documents the human response to the unknown. The film's overarching mystery is imposing yet nebulous, it could be touching on the subconscious' perversion of memory, perhaps the self-destructive nature of the modern world, or maybe a plethora of other things all at once but the film insists that the answer doesn’t really matter. What does matter is the enigmatically alluring ambiance of the eerily sentient setting, the immersive presence of the film, and the lost pursuit of two survivors looking for light in a world of black. All-around, not a perfect film but an effectively tense and esoteric one. 80/100
