World War Z - A Review

3.5 Stars - Decent

why is it that whenever zombies attack buildings suddenly set on fire and none of the lights work?

World War Z is a relatively entertaining zombie film. The performances are okay, the zombies are somewhat intimidating while in motion and there's some genuinely tense moments. However it lacks some of the visceral gore and unsettling scares that make the best zombie films work.

The Zombies are good when they move fast and you don't get much of a look at them, but when they're moving slowly and you get close ups on their faces they just look kind of silly and all tension gets lost because you're laughing.

okay, so this might be Sean of the Dead...

In short, I'd say worth a watch, but maybe wait for TV
