Review of Maggie (2015) by Inaneswine — 14 Nov 2017

Maggie takes itself way too seriously, especially for a zombie flick. Seeing Schwarzenegger in a straight drama role is odd enough, but he's surprisingly not terrible at it. He's certainly not going to win any Golden Globes any time soon, but he's convincing enough in the simple role he's been given to play here.

But while he's not terrible, the film is. It's relentlessly bleak, and inexcusably boring. The story moves so slowly you'd have to fast forward it to see it move at all; and the characters aren't deep enough to paddle in. If you ever have trouble sleeping, put the Zopiclone to one side and stick Maggie on.
