I think they intended to build the strife between humans (as opposed to the unity of the zombies) into the UN building scene, hence the whole "who are you" waste of time in the beginning. But I don't think they ever made it work. The alternative ending emphasized the disunity of humans, and its sources (women).

Flagging down the plane, getting on, all fine and good.... however when was the last time that anyone got on a full flight and the open seat is in the front row with the extra feet room... you know that when the plane boards everyone wants the extra leg room and those would have been the first taken. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + The fall of Jerusalem. I get that the Zombies were drawn to the noise of thousands of people singing, sure. The fact that they piled over the gigantic wall was a little bit of a stretch. But what bugged me was how they weren't noticed until it was already too late. No one was moving or evacuating until the Zombies were spilling over the wall. I mean surely one of the helicopter patrols would have spotted a giant undead horde a mile or two out, or maybe posting guards on the wall would have been a good idea. On a side note, why is everyone putting the plot in spoilers? Its the world war z movie thread, if you open it without having seen the movie you deserve to be spoiled. | ||

Not to spoil, but a lot has to do with human stupidity/greediness/whatever. Hence the seemingly comical parts, which could be interpreted as quicker ways to say the same thing as the book. + Show Spoiler + Like the dude in jerusalem that blows himself out of "heroism" and ends up opening the way for more zombies to come in OKish movie, 6/10. Intro is awesome, so are the wide shots. Second half goes a bit sour to me. Although I think I understand what they were trying to achieve (as said above), I think it lacked imagination + Show Spoiler + ("Yeah ok Brad's buddies keep making noises, we get it, thank you") | ||

It was not "amazing" by any means but it was a fairly good action movie. | ||

The movie was what I expected, bunch of special effects and camera tricks to create action and suspense. That is why I don't like the movie. Aside from that, I started to read the book years ago but it was boring as all hell so I never finished it. The story is kind of lame and unrealistic (as far as the way the gov't works and Bradd Pitts running around all over the world). The giant wall thing was silly, and it just reminded me of Whiskey Outpost on Planet P. | ||
