i thought this movie was mentioned in some other dystopian/post-apocalyptic movies thread but couldn't find it (except for something on ILF, which who cares).
it has something for everybody...a super plague, nuclear annihilation, sweet romance, submarines, Antarctic bases, Handmaid's Tale-esque societal rebuilding, Sonny Chiba cameo, seals, Edward James Olmos serenading in Spanish. and it's on youtube.

You've got my attention. Is it any good?

the acting is 'bad' but super entertaining and watchable. i watched the u.s. version the other night (from netflix) and loved it...we were laughing at a lot of the lines & deliveries but it's also very grim and unpredictable.
not low-budget either - it looks like they actually shot footage all around the world, it's like watching the Travel channel!
