just plain terrible.

Rating: 2/10 (22 June 2013)

Both my husband and I thought this movie was terrible. the only link to the book was that..... spoiler.... Israel had a wall. The fact that this movie did not resemble the book wasn't the reason it was so bad either. It was terrible as a stand alone movie and god knows why they wasted their money in a bidding war just to use a name and nothing else. Fast zombies lose their luster quickly when they move faster and are seemingly stronger than human bodies are capable of. The lack of blood was noticeable immediately and coupled with Brad Pitts very dry performance, interfered with my ability to feel any fear or empathy for the character. Brad Pitt seemed to want to look like a hero and in every continent he visited, he had to save someone. I know everyone's complaining about the directing but Im going to lay most of the fault of this utter failure on a very craptastic editing job. The movie was cut to bits, even the opening credits were noticeably boring and the idea overdone. The visual effects were cartoony and outlandish. I cant get on board with a mostly cgi zombie flick when physical make up effects are still superior in the zombie department. Shaky camera throughout and the ending?..... Straight up retarded.
