Best movie of this year hands down!

You won't be disappointed!

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Good casting. Good plot. Decent writing. Some scenes are a bit over the top.Writers get mad kudos from me when they don't inject jokes every five minutes into a movie like this. The exception is when the movie is suppose to be a comedy or comedic.WW Z caught me by surprise and kept me interested from credits to credits. Also, unlike other Z movies the focus was not on victims being devoured and intestines being munched on. Rather, people were basically being "recruited" into the Z ranks. The globe-trotting added a layer of depth that was totally unexpected as typical Z movies are filmed in one home or town. I did not read the book. Thus my expectations were a blank slate.Also, the Z actors deserve major kudos for twisting and contorting their bodies into the scary creatures. I think these nuances are often missed by people who gave this movie low ratings.

World War Z didn't get me involved in the characters and the tone was off. It didn't know if it wanted to be an action movie or a horror movie so it ended up being a little of both with some scenes being unclear. It had some good action here and there, but it opened with the zombies too quickly and there wasn't much information of how the virus started. It's hard for me to enjoy a movie with constant action and uninteresting characters. I would like it to have cool action scenes, just not as frantically. I guess if the characters were interesting I would've liked it.

This fast paced thriller did right by the novel. Really enjoyed this film and watch it all the time. So scary each and every time!

There are a few reasons why this isn't your typical zombie-movie fare, with the foremost being that it came in that period when the genre was already over-saturated even with spin-offs and 'clever twists' and various other gut-guzzling variants that all essentially share the same essential features. As such, 'World War Z (2013)' tries it's best to stand-out but inadvertently blends in with those aforementioned titles. It's getting to a point now where you either have to be really creative but in the process make a piece that isn't really a 'zombie' flick, or just go back to the old Romero way of doing things in order to make something seen as 'original' - although the latter hasn't really happened yet in a big way. This particular picture also falls into the pitfall of having eyes too big for its budget, as its shaky special effects often soften the impact of some of the more grandiose - and frankly silly - fast-running walking-dead set-pieces which usually lean on the crowd-clambering conceit the picture tends to use almost like a crutch. It's telling, though, that the successful third-act is a much slower one that values suspense over splendour and that the more ostentatious moments pierce the overly serious tone to provide the most enjoyable memories. 7/10
