Review of Warm Bodies (2013) by Grant S — 18 May 2014
Highly original zombie movie. Possibly the most original since the first ever zombie movie. A zombie-romantic-comedy, if you like, which shows how original it is as I doubt any other movie has been described as that.
Very interesting, quirky plot. Starts intriguingly and gathers momentum as it goes. Has a few periods when it becomes a bit of a mundane chase and/or action sequences, but these are short. Plot isn't entirely watertight either, but, considering the science-fiction nature and quirkiness of the movie, it can be forgiven for erring on the side of entertainment over flawless plot.
Has some funny moments too. The whole premise of the movie is quite funny, in fact.
Ending is quite sweet and profound.
Good performances from Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer in the lead roles. Solid support from John Malkovich, Rob Corddry and Analeigh Tipton.
