WORLD WAR Z
DIRECTED BY: MARC FORSTER (Monster's Ball and The Kite Runner)
STARRING: BRAD PITT
So what can I say about World War Z. First off if you are a true die hard fan of the Max Brooks novel then you might not agree with this movie and don't worry I will not put any spoilers into this post. World War Z is a race against time action packed thriller. The movie does have a large amount of suspense, just enough to keep you off your seat. Wouldn't we all wish that this movie would be rated "R" but we get stuck with a blatant "PG-13" rating but this rating does not take us away from how intense it can be. At some points you could careless about how much blood you see. What the movie does try to set is an epic scale which they do obtain at certain points in the film. I don't blame the writers for not fully sticking with the novel because of its heavy political content but they could have gave us a taste.
Overall this movie will entertain the average movie goer but will some what feed the fan boys. If you would like an aspect into the movie reference, think 28 WEEKS LATER slept with 2012.
The reasons why I gave it a 8/10 is because the movie lacks the full relationship with the book even if it kept the basics. Also I felt that the ending was not fully achieved. It felt like they just needed to end it.
