Review of The Crazies (2010) by Mickeyfinn — 20 Nov 2022

I pretty much like the actors but omg what's the point remaking an old movie if you cut everything out. A quarantine, military shooting civilians.. that maybe was bold and fresh in 1970,:not anymore. The old one was pretty crappy but still a Romero, had a whole lot of ideas and passion.

The craziness creeping, chaos. military and civilians shooting each other.. The pregnant lady was infected, then shot by civilians who mistook them for military. The immune main character was put with the infected without being tested, the doctor who found a cure was mistaken for a civilian and dies by accident, in the end the virus spreads.

I also remember some weird scenes, a guy being shot in the head that caresses a tree before dying, or the main character piling up some bricks to hide his wife in plain sight on a construction site. Where tf is all that.
