I thought that film would be a action tipycal film with a famous actor, a movie commercial and boring, but the surprise was that film had a great script, very original, interesting and entertaining. The film compare the zombies with a disease, a big pandemy, and the answer is not guns and force and the army, on the contrary, the solution is in the intelligence and science..."more better skill than strength".
I must admit that I am not a 'great' fan of 'action' movies - too often they can suffer from a 'style over substance' deficiency.
It's wrong to generalise, of course and some 'classics' are out there. Maybe things are slowly getting better. I have recently watched a few kids / family films on Youtube, unofficial, probably pirated, but I don't think 'they' can do much about you watching! I have probably been out of circulation for too long but the stuff I watched wasn't bad i.m.h.o. "Boov" is a pretty good tale about loyalty and friendship. "The Guardians" - features Santa Clause, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth Fairy and the main protagonist, Jack Frost. You may straight away dismiss this concept / scenario as fodder for simple minds. I didn't find it so. Fast paced, quite witty and with a 'satisfying' conclusion I thought. Finally (for now!) I have to mention "Mr. Peabody" about an intelligent dog who adopts an orphan boy. I think what I watched on Youtube was a 'rip' of a tv kids special, or a minor cinema release. Again, I found it witty, quite literate in places, with a few historical references (the 'heros' use a time machine). I learned a few things! I may be just a big kid at heart, but I also think that things are 'moving on'.
