    canny film good plot, decent scenes throughout, not as suspensefull as id have liked, cgi wasnt as bad as id been lead to believe, still aint no miracle of technology either like.

    id like to know how his home has power and running water though? ... id imagine ya coud rig up a generator for the power but what about the water

    i enjoyed it...

    but there was 'something' missing i thought. some parts of the story felt like they weren't fully developed or explained, it was if there was so much to cram in they left bits out. it also ends quite abruptly.

    the infected could have been a bit scarier, looked like golums.

    worth a watch and it has some great moments, but not a classic.

    nowhere near as good as i had hoped

    basically a watered down, Hollywood version of 28 Days Later.

    It showed you he had generators and he could fill his water tank up to have running water I suppose.



    The infected people should have been kept hidden and showed you very little of them. It become daft when it set the dogs onto him.

    i thought that too???? i thought the leader of the zombies set it???? it used 1 of the dummies from his shop as bait for him? he didn't need another thingy at the time - and would use his own blood, rather than a plastic model that the zombies would ignore??? was it definately his? i don't think so



    i always like these apocalyptic end of the world type films, showing cities in ruin - playing golf off the back of a blackbird :lol: - by the way - is that carrier a permanent fixture at new york? there's so many different planes on that carrier, it looks more like a museum - plus there's no way u could land 1 of those ON a carrier?!?!

    Zombies were just a little too much CGI, could have been more humanish, with actors in make up -however them chasing him down and attacking his house wouldn't have been as scarey - but, as it's based on a book/comic series, i suppose they had to stick close to the description of the infected look and act like.

    pretty good film, but yeah, end abruptly.

    the head zombie set the trap, thats why weeeel smiff acted like a nutbar as he didn't think they were intelligent (coupled with the fact he was going a bit loopy anyway).

    i thought that too! that was the turning point in the film for me - normally, you always expect zombies to be thick - but once he does this, copies his trap from where he took that young girl zombie (looking deeper into it, possibly his zombie girlfriend, hence why he takes such a dislike for will smith) it makes you think "oh shit, they're clever AND nasty"

    think you've got it spot on there + intelligent zombies are an unusual concept and potentially leave it open for a sequel or franchise (as hollywood loves them at the moment!)
