Brilliant story but follows the luckiest man alive

Rating: 6/10 (2 May 2014)

The film World war Z has its beautiful scenes, with fast paced, heart stopping moments. In the Narrative, we follow Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) and his fight to save the world and by doing this saving his family. The basic story is there, Man forced to work in his ex-job to help protect his family.
As Gerry's previous job was staying alive in dangerous places, we suspect he will be smarter and more accurate in making his decisions. However as the film goes on past the 60 min mark, we notice that his decisions are just too good to be true/real. In contrast there are some disappointing and quite stupid scenes.
Overall the film draws you in to believe that Gerry will stay alive not matter what he does and that the only outcome is saving the world. For a 'normal' man he sure does have luck on his side.
