Weak, rushed and silly.

Rating: 4/10 (22 June 2013)

In my opinion 28 days/weeks later is the best zombie film out there so I was expecting a mordernised version of it. I saw the trailer for World War Z and I was absolutely excited, but unfortunately I was left feeling very disappointed.
First of all, the 'zombies' in this film were created by a virus which came out of nowhere. There is no story to how everything happened. It just did. And Gerry (Brad Pitt) is given the task to find out where it originated from for some reason. The film states that he's had experience in battle before so he knows his stuff but as of now he's abandoned that profession...so why do they need him when they have perfectly able marines and seals on hand?
Additionally, World War Z continuously switches between the enemy being 'infected' or 'zombies' or 'undead'. They are not undead. Undead is where they were previously dead and have been reanimated. They're just zombies. The bite transmission kind. You don't actually see anyone get killed by an infected person.
Also, this film was so evidently rushed. At one point Gerry is in South Korea, and then a moment later he's on a plane to Israel. The action scenes last five minutes each and the action involved is short lived and predictable. In fact, Gerry is hardly involved in the action scenes.
If you're looking for a zombie film which will thrill you, this film is not what you are looking for. Action is weak, there is no gore, the story is pointless, all of the characters are pretty much expendable...it's amazing it can even be rated as a 15.
World War Z. Z, being the sound produce by the audience.
