Well done, thought out, and more realistic to what a zombie outbreak would look like.

Rating: 9/10 (28 June 2013)

This movie did not have all the gore and intense makeup to make the zombies gruesome like a typical zombie movie. Instead WWZ takes a more I Am Legend look. It's very similar to that movie except more developed and better paced. The zombies in this movie are also the realistic type of zombie that we would see in real life if that ever was to occur. This movie seems to be getting a lot of bad reviews for not having the typical "Zombie" which is stupid to me. They are trying to make this a realistic movie and that's not how they wanted to do their zombies which makes sense. In fact I found them more scary because of the realism. The fact that it's a virus that is trying to spread makes more sense for the zombies to be fast and bite a victim without ripping them apart, then a bunch out undead creatures eating people.. I'm sick of movies being all about gore and how much money you spend on your makeup rather than some great, not overdone effects, and a well paced exciting movie. Luckily WWZ did exactly that and I really enjoyed it. Not only did it have me cringing and holding my breath many times, but it left me wanting more which a good movie should do. I think that is exactly what they wanted to do because I'm sure there will be a sequel.
