It was entertaining, but the logistics were off

Rating: 8/10 (20 January 2008)

As a New York guy, I have to question not only the plan of the main characters but also the logistics. Why anyone would stay at the Spring St. stop for 20 minutes and then FINALLY start running through the subway is beyond me. And how exactly did they get to 59th st and Columbus Circle from Spring St. so quickly? And was the quarantine space in the Manhattan Mall at 33rd and B'way? If so, how did they get there? I could've ended the movie in 5 minutes - instead of going to B'klyn over the bridge, they could've walked (btw, no respectable New Yorker would "walk" anywhere in a situation like that, and the characters did nothing but walk) the opposite direction to the World Trade Center and taken the PATH Train to New Jersey, and thus we would have been able to watch the whole thing while not trying to adjust our eyes to the blur of the moving camera. Btw, Rob was selfish as hell to go after Beth the whole time - he killed Marlena and Hud because of that.
Even though I was just all over the movie for poor planning, I must say the entertainment factor was still high. It was still a creepy movie packed with great scenes and good surprises.
