Warm Bodies

Re: Warm Bodies
I watched it last night at a preview, too, and even though I thought that the plot was ridiculous - human connection as a way to bring people back from the dead or a cure for zombie-ness, really? - the movie was funny and enjoyable. Twilight was way more annoying to me, since it lacked any self-criticism which WB had.

Here's mine. I really enjoyed it. I find the 'zombie' genre a bit disturbing at times; zombies are generally a conveniently human-shaped target for people to work out their homicidal frustrations on. But this was surprisigngly good and very sweet.

Re: Warm Bodies
This is certainly not my usual choice of film but I went as it was free and . . . guess what, I did enjoy it!
The main thing is just to disband any sense of reality and just go with it. Yes, it's unbelievable but so are lots of other things we watch . . . they are for entertainment and that is what I got. I loved the soundtrack which really added to the overall experience.
Would I watch it again? . . . proabably not.
Would I have pa*d to see? . . . certainly not!
But, marks 7/10 so enjoyable enough!

Amusing that people are saying this would make a good "alternative" Valentine's film (I agree), especially when compared with This Is 40 (which I haven't seen and don't now plan to), which is being released on Valentine's Day!

Re: Warm Bodies
Didn't watch the trailer before going to see this so wasn't sure what to expect but it was surprisingly good! It's not your usual zombie film with all the gore and hd an original idea but just a bit slow to start. I'd say 6/10.
