[QUOTE="tomBitonti, post: 6150104, member: 13107"] Major nit: Saying that you are doing something wrong doesn't make it less wrong. But, to all: What did you think about the movie? Whether or not it's the same as the book is one thing, but the discussion has become an aside from the movie itself. Did you like it, would you recommend it? I thought that it was an excellent movie. Worth noting: Gore is minimal. There [i]are[/i] lots of good and creepy zombie close-ups. But if you want gore, you will be disappointed. (And to say: a lot of reviewers are in this camp, leading to lots of negative reviews.) The movie does have a goodly amount of suspense -- [spoiler]one of the earlier scenes in the building leading to the helicopter rescue gave me a good jump.[/spoiler] Also, the acting seemed to be quite tight. That's another negative to a lot of the reviews, but I thought it was refreshing to see tight character pieces, and to see [i]less[/i] overdone presentations. I rather thought the actress playing the Israeli soldier (you'll know who I mean if you see the movie) did a good job. One complaint that I had was that [spoiler]the Israelis did not have observers on all points of the wall. And, that the zombies reacted strongly to sound seems like, duh, and should have been well noted by then. And wouldn't you put in a wider exclusion zone? A wall inside the wall. At the very least, an area free of people. (Maybe they were too short on space for that.)[/spoiler] Thx! TomB [/QUOTE]
