I really didn't wanna watch this movie

Rating: 9/10 (26 December 2007)

When I heard Will Smith was in a new film I knew I wanted to find out more! He with the likes of Morgan Freeman, Denzel Washington, and Matt Damon are actors that earn their money!....But then i heard it was a Zombie movie, having been made to sit through movies like 30 days of night by my hubby, i really didn't want to give this movie the time of day, I mean how many Man turns into zombie...zombie hunts man...man hunts zombie films can there be, the plots are limited. Bring back the suspense of Hitchcock any-day. But I have to say I was very impressed, even if you don't like/are fed up with these sort of movies, i would say watch it, Will smith brings feeling and realness to a zombie movie! It isn't full of blood sucking close ups or hack and slash the zombie, but the human instinct and need to hope, love and survive. I would go as far to say it was brilliant, I don't think anybody else would have got me to like this movie, but yet again he surpassed himself with fine acting, leaving an impression that stays with you. While i don't want to go out and get the book, or see more zombie movies, i am glad i watched this one.
