Worth a watch
Pretty interesting movie!
Zombie movies may be cliche or some may find them boring but personally I love them. I find it interesting the way each story moves differently and seeing different renditions of the same "disease". I have a soft spot for them but it wont keep me from making an honest review.
To me this movie drew in my interest very quickly, within the first 10 minutes of the film starting we dive right into our apocalyptic setting. No wasted time on any back story or what this disease is ( in a movie setting ; meaning its short run time, to me is preferred ) jumping right in and showing us more of the realistic side of what happens in the beginning. Another aspect that I enjoyed with this movie was, it gave us a lot of answers early on that in other zombie movies tend to leave us without. His family, typically in solo survival movies a question we are often left is "what happened to their family?" Starting off the film with that information gave us an easy way to strictly focus on the survival of our main character and truly see and relate to his feelings.
The actors did a fantastic job and with the minimal (main) cast made it easy to follow and stay focused. The music wasn't too prominent and i honestly don't remember much honestly but that is a part I'm not particularly picky about. Even if you don't typically enjoy horror or zombie movies I would still recommend that you watch this. It has some fun moments, good progression, tad bit of hinted romance ( maybe it was just me ) and a good resolution.
The only critique I have is for the last quarter of the movie, it seemed to burn out just a bit. The ending was alright but slightly shorter than I wanted it to be. It started off strong gave me a meaty story along with great acting but rushed out the door a bit quick. This film had a tasteful twist but it seemed to be rush in the later half.
Overall will suggest you give it a watch, and I know I will watch again!
