It started well, but afterwards, I just stopped caring.

Aliens was a good sequel. It had marines. Bad alien screws stuff up, send in the Marines. They're all tough as nails with lots of cool kit, then it all goes to hell. This flick is something like that. London is supposedly Rage virus free and so a US-led NATO force is now on the ground helping with the reconstruction. The first thing I noticed was that there was an armed soldier about every three feet inside the Green Zone. The second thing I noticed was that the NATO force had no representation at all from like, you know, NATO. But whatever, this is a zombie movie right? I mean, they wouldn't make the flick if the zombies didn't come back, right? So right around the time they come back, I suddenly am told how the movie ends, but I won't ruin it for you, if you see it, it'll be pretty obvious. The rest of the movie is then spent trying to overlook the obvious ridiculousness of the American response and obvious lack of preparations. For instance, the zombies are fast and like to jump on people and bite them. So if I was planning a mission involving running zombies that bit, I think I'd want to put my soldiers in a big metal box with wheels. You know, like a tank. Or a personnel carrier that is armoured. I think they're called Armoured Personnel Carriers. Oh yeah, and the plan for containing the safe population from the infected, I think I'd want to avoid putting them all in one dark room with a fire exit that is completely unguarded. Might make for a problem. Oh yeah, and if I was flying around in a helicopter, I might want a guy in the back. You know, like a doorgunner. Oh, and if you're told to bring a kid along with you, that he's like, the saviour of man-kind, but he's also retarded and keeps wandering off without telling anyone and not responding when his own sister screams his name at the top of her lungs even though he's about three feet away? I'd leave the little turd behind. So is the movie worth seeing? Sure, why not, it's production value is good and there are some good shots, but when you're being shocked more from the steady stream of incidents of poor judgement rather than the zombies ripping people apart, you might want to think about renting it.
