I don’t get so pumped for the finale but it isn’t bad. It is a fun zombie flick with some cool presentations in its visuals and audio.
The young actor who plays Hannah seems to have trouble delivering believable dialogue. Like its really bad and I am surprised Boyle didn’t step in, especially at a big loss scene.
With Garland and Boyle, now more recognized both as directors, involved in a proper sequel, I am excited.

A movie that relies of a lot of cliche writing, mostly given to the child actors, and a whole hell of a lot of non-sense. Nobody behaves intelligently and it comes so rapid fire that it isn’t upsetting so much as exhausting.
I truly believe this falls on the writers and directors shoulders.
On the plus side, the opening scene is really promising. Maybe just watch that.
There are a lot of neat parts here but it just doesn’t come together well, and I think that falls very heavily on the direction and the script.
Everything else ranges from serviceable to good. I am not a big JLo listener/watcher but I think I could see people wrongly putting it on her shoulders because her face is all over it. None of the actors felt like they were slacking off and the fx house did some neat work.

Just a joy of a film. Great practical effects are only a feature of a movie that has characters you want to watch every moment.
