Speaking of writing, Dave Bautista has proven that he is a comedic asset and yet this movie lacks any comic relief. Yeah, I said it, Zack Snyder! You basically just ripped off every movie in writing this flick. I do like the mix of The A-Team, Ocean's Eleven, World War Z, I Am Legend and Extraction put together. Quiet as it's kept, this is not an original idea at all. Which reminds me, someone really should pitch a John Wick version with zombies. On that front, it's just entertaining to say the least. I mean it's violent and bloody like you'd expect from any zombie flick, but it's also got the athletic ability of the WWE and parkour. Forget any plot, the heist, action and violence is enough to watch this movie. I'll put it like this - if I'm going to be a zombie, I'll want to be a zombie like this alpha beast here. I know what you're thinking, "Zombies, Vegas, and a heist, what more could I ask for?" Well, let's see what Army of the Dead has for us. Led by a group of mercenaries, they are up to take the ultimate gamble by venturing into the quarantine zone to pull off the greatest heist ever attempted. This solid ensemble cast has us following a zombie outbreak in ye olde Las Vegas. Led by a group Thank goodness it's Friday! And when Friday comes, so does the streaming and theater content! This week we have attacking us an Army of the Dead. Thank goodness it's Friday! And when Friday comes, so does the streaming and theater content! This week we have attacking us an Army of the Dead. Then there's the failed hero daughter who is just a blatant imbecile who condemns the group because she needs to save her friend, everybody dies and finally the second survivor becomes a zombie leaving the perfect cliffhanger for another excellent yet mediocre 2nd flick. Sadly it is just stupidly cliche with a part in which the bad guy (you literally know who he is right after he's introduced) attempts to Kill a latino girl who's John wick with a vagina (literally), she somehow survives just to be killed shortly afterwards in front of her team but still having all the time in the world to scream to them advising who the traitor is, not only that, the guys could've totally saved her by shooting a barrage of bullets (what a stupid scene). From start to about half of the movie is just simply excellent, fun, gory and violent it has all you want to see from a zombie movie. This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.Įxcellent zombie movie with a tasteless predictable ending. >Verdict: Its passable zombie fun, but don't expect too much like me. >The Ugly: Plotholes, so many the Pacific Fleet could drive across it with room to spare, it fails to keep minimal inner consistence too often and ham fisted politics, Sean Spicer, the scummy guard blackmailing and raping potentially zombie infected women and the pretty young woman rock groupie coyote are more unbelievable than the zombies, with such a lazy job of containment it's a wonder only Vegas is overrun with zombies. >The Good: Decent production values, plenty of zombie killing, decent if wasted cast, if taken as pure no thinking popcorn movie it entertains, zombie tiger and Its Vegas, baby! >The Bad: Poor pacing overall, feels like a haunted house in zombieland and Snyder can and has done a better job directing before, the casting is textbook diversity woke casting. And while it does not fall totally flat is a far cry from the former. >The Good: Decent production values, plenty of zombie The previous Snyder zombie Dawn of the Dead is one my favorites of the genre right alongside Train from Busan.
