| 1 | * NauseaFuel: It was the type of book you ''couldn't put down'', but ''God'' were the moments when you wanted to just chuck the thing at the wall. [[spoiler:Any of the scenes involving corpses was enough.]] |
| 2 | * NeverLiveItDown: The majority of the comments on this film's Website/{{Letterboxd}} revolve around Daisy [[KissingCousins having a romantic and sexual relationship with her own cousin]], not helped by the fact that, even disregarding them being related, [[StrangledByTheRedString their relationship is incredibly forced]] and at times seems to take higher priority to Daisy over the children. |
| 3 | * NightmareFuel: The fates of [[spoiler: The Major and the guy from the orchard]]. |
| 4 | ** Parts of the film are very uncomfortable to watch, particularly [[spoiler: Daisy finding and searching the corpses at Gatesfield.]] |
| 5 | * RetroactiveRecognition: Nowadays, Daisy's nerdy cousin Isaac will look awfully familiar to many a mainstream viewer wanting to catch up with the film, as he was played by Creator/TomHolland, just three years before he started playing ComicBook/SpiderMan in the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse. |
| 6 | * TheScrappy: Despite most audience members agreeing Creator/SaoirseRonan still turned in a good performance, Daisy as a character has been heavily criticized by audience members for her [[AlphaBitch incredibly bitchy attitude]] and [[LadySwearsALot foul mouth]] that extends [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk even towards her youngest cousins]], grating [[{{Wangst}} wangsty]] narration, and most of all, [[KissingCousins her incestuous relationship with her own cousin]]. Not helped ''at all'' by the fact this serves as her primary motivation for making her way back home amidst the apocalypse [[SkewedPriorities rather than ensuring the children's safety]], which makes her come across as selfish AND creepy. |
| 7 | * StrangledByTheRedString: In the film Edmond and Daisy's relationship just happens, and all of a sudden Edmond is just the one, period. |
| 8 | * TheWoobie: Almost everyone, really. |
| 9 | ** IronWoobie: ''Piper'' - in the book, at least - although she does crack once or twice. |
