“The suspense is killer!” proclaims Peter Travers of Rolling Stone in this fast-paced pulse-pounding epic of the potential last days of the human race. Former United Nations employee Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) is called upon to help stop the chaotic pandemic that has gripped populations around the world. Lane fights to keep his family safe while searching for an answer to the outbreak before it destroys all of civilization. David Denby of The New Yorker calls World War Z the “most gratifying action spectacle in years!”

평가 및 리뷰

Imo, such shallow, one dimensional characters, boring, predictable storyline and overall mediocrity doesn't deserve a place on the silver screen, where it appears so much larger than life and has the unfortunate potential of being inflicted on a mass audience, (not unlike a zombie pandemic). There were only 3 things in the film that stuck in my mind. The first was how it was a waste of some fine acting talent. The second was how awful it would be to be stranded in Newark, NJ, even without a rabid zombie outbreak. The third was how amateurish it was of Brad Pitt's character to use duct tape to attach a knife to the end of a pole. Very ineffective. It wouldn't last fighting off a single zombie, unless the zombie was an elderly one, like maybe a member of AARP...or perhaps AARZ. A whipline, which is a method that uses line to securely attach a fishing gaffe to the end of a pole would be the proper technique. Take my word on this. It works like a charm. I know it from personal experience because I once got stranded in Newark during the riots that occurred in the aftermath of a shuffleboard tournament.

Though I prefer to see the zombies enjoying a well deserved human feast, tearing apart every part of the human anatomy. lnstead the infection becomes World War Zs Zombies main priority, making them fast and relentless. Spreading their disease like a virus on a microscopic level. It was cool. I hear the books were amazing and the virus originated in China. Gotta love how the market has to change those details to sell there. Still, good movie

First of all this has nothing to do with the book. It's a major motion picture release so if you've seen any zombie movie in the last 20 years you can see the story unfolding as it's going. With that said, it's not a bad film. It's not great, tons of plot holes and groan moments but I found it entertaining, surprised Brad Pitt did a movie like this and interested where it will go next. Too bad there won't be a part two
