Just another Apocalypse movie

Rating: 4/10 (1 October 2013)

This film is not awful (although you sometimes dose off), but I can not help but view this in the same light as more or less any recent Apocalypse meets Zombie movie.Yes, obviously an awful lot of money was spent to produce a good quality product, but that is where it kind of ends for me. There are no real likable characters and even the "Zombies" or "Infected" are not that scary or believable. It just feels like something we have seen before, (28 days later, Dawn of the Dead, Shaun of the Dead, The Crazies etc etc), with Brad Pitt as the lead character (his character also not really believable or likable in my honest opinion.) The Plot is also somewhat of a let down, and very predictable (I have not read the book, but some claim that the Screenplay missed the mark completely.. )
If you are really into recent Apocalypse Zombie type flicks, do yourself a flavor and rent Zombies of Mass Destruction (ZMD). Even with it's low budget and very obvious dark humor approach, it was way more entertaining to watch than World War Z. I also would definitely recommend Zombieland above this rather boring attempt.
