Quite enjoyable, but not great

Rating: 8/10 (16 October 2019)

What I enjoy about this movie is that it does not try to be more than what it is: a family road-trip with zombies along the way.
The acting is incredible, be it with Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone or Jesse Eisenberg. Special mention to Woody Harrelson because the dude just kills it! The guy is the coolest guy I have seen on screen in a while.
The CGI is ok, visuals and directing are competently made.
The plot has a lot of faicilities and I am not a fan of some choices. For example, the fact that every rule is written on the screen. For something that is repeated so many times during the movie, I find that Fleischer kind of takes the spectator for a dumbass. I am also not a fan of Jesse Eisenberg as narrator and I believe the film would have been a bit better without a guy explaining everything about it instead of just showing us who he is on screen. Kind of lazy I find.
Anyway...enough nitpicking, I enjoyed the ride and look forward to seeing the second one.
