Today we watched World War Z starred by Brad Pitt. I was really excited to watch this movie because not only that it's a Zombie Film, but also it is made by Max Brooks, author of the book of the same title and the Zombie Survival Guide.
I essentially no doubt, loooove Zombie film, EVER! I'm a huge fan and I've waited like months for this movie; I think t'was March or Feb when I first saw the trailer, I was really moved By it like, YEEAH another Z-film! Man this ones going to be awesome, plus the fact that Brad Pitt is the Bida.
Also, as a fan of Max, first of all, I have to say that this movie and the book he made (i.e. Zombie Survival Guide) totally contradicts. Especially on how the Zombies moves and stuffs, but oh well, I understand him, he made the Zombies more of a super zombie in this version.
For you to understand what I'm talking about, I'll quote you some of his' words from his book:
- Then walking dead tend to move at a slouch or limp. Even without injuries or advanced decomposition, their lack of coordination makes for an unsteady stride....
- ...zombies appear to be incapable of running. Fastest have been observed to move at a rate of barely one step per 1.5 seconds.
- The time table below outlines the process of an infected human (give or take several hours, depending on the individual).
- Hour 1: Pain and discoloration (brown-purple) ofvtje infected area immediate clotting of the wound (provided the infection came from the wound).
- Hour 5: Fever (99-103 degrees F), chills , slight dementia, vomiting, acute pain in the joints.
- Hour 8: Numbing of extremities and infected area, increased fever (103-106 degrees F), increased dementia, loss of muscular coordination.
- Hour 11: Paralysis in the lower body, overall numbness, slowed heart rate.
- Hour 16: Coma.
- Hour 20: Heart stoppage. Zero brain activity.
- Hour 23: Reanimation.
I am not saying that I didn't liked the movie, no. Actually the movie was great. Although I feel that I'm kind of lagged behind, the movie didn't tell how'd the infection came to New York (where Brad and his family lived), just a huge explosion and boom, zombies all over the place.
Overall, well... I don't know but for me, the movie plays from 3.5 to 4 star. But well, Brooks delivered a Z-film in a different way, not the Hollywood Zombie film where zombies are all bloody and decomposed. This one is good, I might have just been used to those mainstream zombie look.
