The unrated cut is also awful...

Rating: 1/10 (9 May 2020)

Just as a quick thing to mention, I am reviewing the unrated cut because I was able to get it for the same price as the original and I thought it'd be a better movie if I got the unrated cut, short answer is... I was wrong... but here's why...
Now the first thing I'd like to talk about is the plot, so I'd probably say the plot is that Gerry (Brad Pitt) is trying to find a way to cure the zombie virus, while also trying to protect the people around him, but usually he fails at protecting them and everyone either dies or is left behind. My problem is that, this doesn't sound like the plot or the story, it just sounds like a really vague summary, and usually I'd just blame myself for not being able to come up with a better description of the film, but I think this time it's the films fault.
The gore is almost non-existent, I didn't watch the PG-13 version, but in the unrated cut, a doctor slips while trying to run back into the plane and cracks his head open (this shows probably the most blood in the whole movie), a guy pulls his tooth out (and there's no blood), a girl gets her hand cut off (its a quick, offscreen slice and it shows the arm with a little bit of GCI blood spraying out for about a few frames), and someone gets bitten by a zombie and I think I saw a little bit of blood (it was the plane scene), and maybe one or two other times where someone gets bit or a zombie gets killed, I honestly can't think of anymore examples but I'm sure I missed some. So basically, there's almost no gore, and very little blood, and according to other reviews the orginal PG-13 version has no blood.
Alright, so characters... there isn't much to say but I guess I'll talk about all of the main characters one by one. So the main character, Gerry, the only thing I can say about him is that he has plot armor. Tomas is just an example of how Gerry has plot armor because when Gerry was about to get bitten, Tomas shoots the zombie and saved Gerry, so Tomas now joins the family and does nothing for the rest of the movie. But at least Tomas did something unlike Garry's actual family who are just there so Gerry has a reason to do anything. Then there is the leader of where Brad works and he... does... stuff? Lastly there is Segen, who is the girl who got her hand chopped off and when her, Gerry, and a doctor guy were trying to get the "cure" she shoots the first zombie that tries to attack them instead of letting one of the other two kill it with a melee weapon. So overall, most of the characters are just there to die, there for plot purposes, or worst of all, there for absolutely no reason.
In this last paragraph I'm just going to say thing that I don't need a paragraph to explain. The action is boring and uninspired. I was only scared while watching this when my neighbor's car alarm went off. I can't tell what's going on half the time because either the camera is shaking, there are constant cuts, or it's super dark. And the times it wasn't doing that I could kind of understand what was going on, because nothing was really going on pretty much the whole movie. Lastly, the unrated cut is 6 minutes longer and I honestly couldn't tell what the unrated cut added. Once again I have never seen the PG-13 version, so idk if there is a big difference or not.
Overall this movie was horrid, it wasn't scary, the action was boring, the movie was fast paced, yet felt like it lasted forever, it shouldn't have been two hours, the gore and blood weren't really present, even though it was an unrated cut, the ending was horrible, there were infinite plot holes, and I should've just read the book. 1/10
