Trailer for World War Z, an American zombie movie starring Brad Pitt and Mireille Enos etc. Directed by Marc Forster and based on the 2006 novel of the same name by Max Brooks. In cinemas next June.
Pitt stars as a former United Nations investigator who must travel the world to find a way to stop a zombie pandemic. From the teaser seems like he has to get his family out of trouble first.
Zombie apocalypse is a possible thing in real life, all we need is a mutated rabies virus to start an outbreak. The infected may behave in many ways like a zombie, but it make no biological sense that zombies can become superhuman. And thus, I don’t really buy into this fast zombie stuff.
The trailer looks pretty intense though; and I’m a fan of disaster films, so I’ll be watching it regardless.
Update and verdict
The drama, suspense and acting are all pretty good.
There are criticisms about the anti-climax ending but I actually like that part. Not all action movies have to end with a bang; it’s good to be serene sometimes, especially when it’s done right.
