Army of the Dead (2021)

Action over substance

[5/10 · 28 May 2021]

Like with many films in the genre if you dont think about it and just enjoy the action and spectical for what it is its fine, especially if you're watching with friends it can be funny and you can point out the many holes and have a giggle about it.

But at the same time I feel like if the film didnt do half the stupid stuff (or at least did it on purpose and went over the top with it) that it could actually be extremely good, but unfortunately there are just so many stupid moments and inconsistencies that make it impossible for me to rate higher.

Shaun of the Dead (2004)

More than it appears

[9/10 · 30 March 2021]

You might think from the name and trailer that this film is nothing more than a cheap micky take of "dawn of the dead" and while it is at the same time its so much more than that.

The way Edgar shows our day to day lives as being lifeless zombies before the zombies even appear is so subtle and clever, the characters all feel very real or relatable, the story while silly makes sense, and ofc humor through is brilliant and I was honestly shocked when i saw people giving it 1 stars and saying its not funny.
