Don't forget the hotdog flavored water.

Finally saw it last night.
New found respect for Brad Pitt. He carried the movie but didn't steal the focus away from the story or other actors.
I liked the constant reminder that his motives weren't really about saving the world but more so just trying to protect his family.

I also enjoyed the clever use of camera angles that hinted at the violence without graphically showing it. IMO the zombies were still "scary" without the need of showing blood & guts.

I heard its main problem is its rating. Another case of a film that should have got an R-rating but had the PG-13 slapped on it for financial gain.

Still on the fence on whether to go see this or not.

There's other ways to make things scary without using blood & Gore, Which Esau pretty much said.

this is basically a family film..

Spoiler:
there is no blood.. repeat no blood

there is no problems with it

It's a good movie that scares you without even the need of blood. It's has some plot holes and poorly thought out parts, but I did enjoy it. I do recommend it.

Yeah, I agree with Esau... it's actually pretty impressive that it manages to be scary without blood 'n guts. Usually PG-13 movies that should be R-rated bother me, but this didn't.

Well, maybe "scary" isn't the right word. "Intense" is probably better. It works.

I don't think going in to this movie, with the idea that you're about to watch a horror film, is the right approach. It's not really a horror film. It's a disease/pandemic film (like Contagion) and a... relatively subdued action film. It's got some shock value scares, but nothing definitive as "horror". And I don't think that's what the filmmakers were going for.

And if anything it benefited from the PG rating. Instead of focusing on the blood and guts approach of most zombie plots, it focused on the survival/cause 'n effect/ramification of such a situation. Focused on Pitt's characters too, and without any of the standard zombie film cliches--love story, guy who's clearly bitten but hiding it, finding a safehouse, "BOOMER!", etc. It was a very focused story, and I appreciated that.

"Intense" is the right word, as Leech^ said.

And that has what to do with this movie?

That was a set of the movie. Now it's been released I could post it.

Could've posted before the movie was out too

hasn't stop other places from showing off things from movie sets

unless your trying to say that you filmed it.

I agreed not to upload it before release. If I agree something, I stick to it. I'm a man of my word.

Do you have a problem with that as well?

That's not what i'm trying to get at

so did you film the footage and then agreed to something from the studio?

Yes I filmed the footage. Here's a snap as well.

????

because if not...comes back to my previous

hasn't stop other places from showing off video's from movie sets, Like for the second Thor movie.

It doesn't even make the slightest difference to you what I agreed. So what I posted it after the release.

I've worked on movies before and this one, WWZ I had to turn down as I worked on another movie who's production was running concurrently with Z. Z decided to come shoot on the same location as we were and I had to work on a Sunday to come 'baby-sit' them. The only reason I was there was because inside the counterguard there was one of our sets and Z had crew walk in and out of that place.

I represented our production in case Z wanted to exceed their agreement, and believe me, with a production as big as Z, they thought they could have walked all over everyone to get what they wanted.

Photos and Videos were taken in case the Counterguard was damaged by Z and respective inquiries were made in order to establish whether their guarantees were viable.

Cool shit. Nevermind Kaz... I'm appreciative of you posting it.

Well, I enjoyed this movie for what it was. Saw it with my parents, and liked it. Almost have to see it on the big screen for the effect.

But that's the thing, your PG-13 is our standard, M+15.
And yeah, "Intense" is the key word to describe this film.
