    That's what I don't like. When someone say zombie to me, I think of a corpse, with half his head open, slowly walking towards you, and not running like it's Usain Bolt!

    A couple of my friends from work want to see this. I might join them. Though only for being in the midst/precense of the wonderful company they provide.
    I can't but help but think that this Zombie element in so many movies/films/shows is bieng so overdone. And I mean overdone to the point it's becoming such mindless consumerism. It's like a zombie is becoming a household pet now.

    Now that makes me think of something. Can a human being, living a normal life, working hard all day to pay his/her way through life actually become a zombie with reference to a slave?? That is a zombie (read normal human being manipulated to work/live as a slave to another). Let me explain a bit more what I'm talking about.

    I won't say all but enough to have you cogiate on what I'm attempting to suggest. It's becoming increasing common knowledge ( if you pay attention and watch trends, that is) that movie production studios are introducing warnings/ideas of things to come. Subtle things that the average wouldn't pay much attention to.
    After all it's just fiction, right?? Call me crazy. But so are the manipulations that invoke such mindless consumerism which movies produce over and over and over using the same/similar themes.

    Are such themes meant to introduce (in a subtle way perhaps??) some kind of futuristic events (or is it happening now?? -- I'd say it's happening now.) geared for controlling mass populations??

    That is people who become living zombies (read normal people like you and me) controlled and/or manipulated to go about doing what-ever action they are manipulated to do by some other party?? People having become zombies/slaves to larger entities to go about some manipulated/controlled activity to continue to build/increase the profits of larger entities??

    People become slaves to consumerism?? People become zombies/slaves to conglomerants to do their bidding in some very subtle way??

    When I use the words 'manipulation' or 'controlled', I mean in having it done with out your full understanding of the idea or fact that you really are being manipulated. And all the while you believe, feel, or think that your are a free and independant person from anybody else where you can do what ever you want. In fact, you are being manipulated for mindless consumerism to fill the pockets of any number of international conglomerants, companies, etc. In fact you have become a living zombie. You just don't know it.
    "God, from the mount Sinai
    whose grey top shall tremble,
    He descending, will Himself,
    in thunder, lightning, and loud trumpet’s sound,
    ordain them laws".


    John Milton (1608-1674) in Paradise Lost

    @SealLion:

    I can't but help but think that this Zombie element in so many movies/films/shows is bieng so overdone. And I mean overdone to the point it's becoming such mindless consumerism. It's like a zombie is becoming a household pet now.
    generally, the whole hollywood movie production (applies to the entertainment industry in general too) is overdone, movies getting churned out as if using a manufacturing assembly line, where just about anyone assumes being able to make a decent movie, ending up in a pile of mediocre/useless products (even where there is an abundance of available financial means) - a development further supported by a passive audience generously spending their money even though being continuously duped by hollow mass-marketing promises

    another thing is the trend influence where again filmmakers attempt to copy each other trying to exploit/milk themes that are currently deemed as 'the most profitable/popular', according to that phrase: 'strike while the iron is hot'

    Can a human being, living a normal life, working hard all day to pay his/her way through life actually become a zombie with reference to a slave?? That is a zombie (read normal human being manipulated to work/live as a slave to another).
    good point there
    undoubtedly, this is likely an inside hollywood joke, comparing consumers to zombies, regarding their mindless consumption of whatever the industry feeds them with - in a broader sense the same applies to government/companies/authorities/opinion-makers vs. average citizens

    that movie production studios are introducing warnings/ideas of things to come. Subtle things that the average wouldn't pay much attention to.
    After all it's just fiction, right?? Call me crazy. But so are the manipulations that invoke such mindless consumerism
    some examples:
    - futuristic big-budget movies with slick/cool gadgets, many of which (if not all) are already available for purchase (and likely premium prices) - the most basic example of this is noticing brand name laptops/cars/clothes/cellphones/food/... used in the movie - the viewers subconsciously wanting to buy/get them or correlating them with success/coolness, their future goals, etc.
    - global warming & climate change - flawed/false ideas heavily pushed in the (mostly big-budget) movies, subconsciously familiarizing the viewers with approved attitudes towards these issues (the 'pro' characters in the movie always win)
    - terrorist threats - there is a huge number of action movies based on such scenarios, subconsciously these themes become normal/expected/familiar, their real-world equivalents become subjects to less scrutiny/inquiry
    - vaccination saves the day in the movie - what does the average joe do when they want to vaccinate his kids (or him)?
    - good vs. evil - cartoon-ish exaggeration continuing the idea of such forces being divided in 2 camps, fortifying the already common dualistic way of human perception (dualism being a perception-based splitting of a wholesome subject for practical/superficial usage)
    - voting makes a difference, vote for liberals, democracy saves! - it doesn't if the system is rigged (all major parties playing the same dirty game), any changes are merely cosmetic
    - dystopian future - cartoon-ish exaggeration, steering viewer perception away from already implemented dystopian measures, which are getting enlarged/increased, spread & refined every once in a while but continuously so and always to the detriment of average citizens (even the dictionary definition of 'dystopia' emphasizes 'imaginary' as if its something far away from any reality)
    - glorifying wars when needed - american hero's save the day, 'uncle sam needs you' after you exit the cinema
    - hollywood producer(s) openly declaring/admitting that they are shaping american/world culture (behavioral engineering, IngSoc)
    - and these are just a few particular examples, whereas one could count literally hundreds

    When I use the words 'manipulation' or 'controlled', I mean in having it done with out your full understanding of the idea or fact that you really are being manipulated. And all the while you believe, feel, or think that your are a free and independant person from anybody else where you can do what ever you want. In fact, you are being manipulated for mindless consumerism to fill the pockets of any number of international conglomerants, companies, etc. In fact you have become a living zombie. You just don't know it.
    consumerism also means consuming/using the product(s): watching, listening, absorbing that which is offered, conscious & subconscious interaction with that contents, receiving those messages, letting them (at least try to) influence/manipulate you - the heavier a consumer one is/becomes, the higher the chances of being 'infected' or desensitized to it, especially if all of it is taken for granted, without a critical insight into what is being delivered (like the euphoric/impulsive fan state of mind or the addict's constant search for the next fix) - in the end, that is the 'holy grail' of the entertainment industry: getting/creating as many zombie-like consumers (fans, addicts, regulars, habit-driven, society-driven,...) as possible for the least level of quality entertainment possible (cheapest/fastest/easiest product to produce/manufacture) - just sit down in front of that big screen, plug yourself in and take that dosage, then praise the 'wizards of progress' for delivering their 'holy wood' concoctions, not forgetting to secure them a god-like status in your heart & mind, as well as in those around you and those that come after you

    furthermore, thats just one of many industries attempting to reach that grail of monopoly/manipulation/influence & co., we haven't even touched upon the subjects of societies, ideas, education, government, norms, habits, culture, family, relationships, not to mention topics like essentials of existence & individual consciousness - notice also that the last two mentioned topics are the least discussed ones in our current societies (another result of manipulation), whereas only therein lies that personal 'holy grail' of freedom & independence everyone is so desperately looking for - for, what is true freedom & independence if not: being able to individually (independence) find out the truth about you own being/existence, thus shedding any and every bit of external or internal manipulation/influence that provides false/distorted perception, ie. becoming free of any form of deception or self-deception (freedom) - thus, indeed, 'the truth will set you free', but only one kind of truth is able to do that truly/properly

    another lazy, braindead movie with zombies

    acting: average, pitt looked old and unispired
    script: braindead
    cgi: average
    camera: annoyingly shaky
    zombies: many, tedious, fast/strong/resilient (ie. the worst choice, trendy, unbelievable)
    propaganda: a lot of it, mostly about vaacines (the list of their miraculous effects is expanded with: makes you invisible to zombies), fear-mongering, some regarding israeli history/actions, CO2 effects, FEMA/concentration camps (indirectly), etc.
    fun factor: low

    rating: 2-3/10

    some movie messages:

    - 'mother nature' compared to a serial killer cliche, quote: 'a bitch wanting to get caught', scientists doing detective work to stop her lol
    - communism (north korea) as genius of social engineering (with extremely obedient citizens, toothless citizens which cannot bite the establishment, let alone do whatever they want like the zombies can)
    - zombies as a metaphor for (a certain kind of) humans, humans divided into useful/2nd rate/zombie groups: the useful ones get rescued (so they can continue doing the work which is deemed useful by the establishment/the state), others get deported to 2nd rate citizen areas (refugee/FEMA camps), zombies get executed (those dangerous to the establishment) - the useful & partially useful ones gotta move as if invisible among the masses of zombies (like agents working undercover) by taking the vaccine (a mixture of various specific vaccines)

    - did you know that the USA CDC uses 'zombie preparedness' to spread their propaganda/fear-mongering?


    Spoiler imdb spoilers:

    #1

    The zombie outbreak starts with Brad Pitt with his family in stopped traffic. There's a huge explosion with no explanation of why. Then, either a huge horde of humans are running from a small amount of zombies, or a huge horde of zombies are chasing a small amount of humans. You can't tell who is who, because all you see is a mob of people running in the same direction. Occasionally you see a zombie or two leap after a human, so you can tell they're not all human. But otherwise they could have been filming the bull runs in Spain (without the bulls).

    The zombies are part of what ruins the movie. They run faster than humans can, leap onto flying helicopters and can stack themselves 20 zombies high to climb walls. They can detect any terminal illness in any human, no matter the disease. No explanation is given how someone can go from ordinary human to super zombie in 12 seconds. Or why zombies just bite humans and then run away. If it takes 12 seconds to turn, then why don't they continue to attack for 12 seconds?

    Next, all the zombies are gone somehow and we see humans looting a store. The zombies are attracted to sound, but somehow they can't hear people pushing shopping carts on pavement. After some shopping, Brad takes his family to an apartment building which seems to be void of zombies. He convinces a family to let him and his family into their apartment. After a beer, Brad tells the father that him & his family should go with him. However, the father decides to stay. Bad decision. When Brad Pitt tells you to do something, you do it. Within seconds of Brad leaving, all of a sudden there's a hundred zombies outside the door breaking in.

    Brad's on his way to the roof for a helicopter rescue while being chased by zombies. All of a sudden the little boy from the family shows up. No explanation of how he got by all the zombies, nor an explanation of why the zombies stopped coming to allow Brad to save the boy. All we know is when Brad Pitt is around, zombies either stop coming, or become very calm. Almost like they just took a Valium.

    Next they're off to South Korea. Nothing happens except Brad learns he needs to go to Israel, and the North Koreans are fine because they extracted the teeth of their entire country. (Can't infect without teeth) How that stops the 4 billion people already infected with teeth is never explained. Brad gets to Israel to witness they built a wall around the country and survived the zombie apocalypse. Not for long. They're letting in people from everywhere. All you see is humans entering the country through metal walkways. Who knows where the walkways lead to or why the zombies can't get into them. Or can they? There's a scene later in the movie where a zombie picks up a human in the supposedly safe walkway, and infects him. If that's all it took to infect the walkway, then why weren't they infected a long time ago?

    Why didn't Israel get infected? Because they built a huge wall. Why did every continent get infected at nearly the same time? Because as explained in the movie, it was the airplanes. Big cities were affected first and worst because of the international airports. Did Israel have airports? Absolutely. They had a line of planes leaving every minute. Did zombies infect the planes? They certainly infected the plane Brad Pitt left Israel on. So why didn't Israel get infected by one of the planes entering the country? Never explained.

    The reason why the zombies took over the country is dumb. After they let in refugees, the refugees start singing and that noise attracts the zombies. Forget the fact that they have helicopters constantly orbiting the wall, or the never ending line of planes taking off from their airports. It's the children singing that triggers the zombies to scale the wall and conquer the country. In South Korea, army soldiers gave advice to aim at the knees to slow them down, and then the heads to kill. So obviously we're not dealing with invincible zombies. So how do they manage to stack themselves 20+ zombies high, and then drop all the way to the ground uninjured? No broken bones. But if you shoot their knees they drop like flies.

    Then there's the amputation scene. Israel is being overrun by zombies so badly, the girl running behind Brad gets bit. They kill the biting zombie, and then conveniently, zombies stop coming so Brad can amputate the hand of the girl, and bandage her up. I told you Brad Pitt has a calming effect on zombies!!

    About the "terminal illness" theory. How did they not discover that the entire cancer wing of a hospital would be unaffected by the zombie virus. Or were the zombies simply avoiding Brad Pitt? I wish Brad Pitt infected himself with a virus that made him invisible to me.

    #2

    It's the norm now. Films, television and radio, are all tainted by government engineering, social engineering and downright mind control.

    This movie is really about Vaccines. Not Zombies. Zombies are the smokescreen.

    I knew after the first ten minutes where we were heading, because this is all American movies produce. Adverts for corporations and subliminal propaganda for their Israeli infiltrated administration.

    Vaccines save the day - regardless of what damage Vaccines have done and are doing to innocent people currently. Absolutely no evidence, or thought, is given to exposing the actual DANGERS of Vaccines, instead, Brad and his Joowood buddies, decided that they do a Pharmaceutical film, making Vaccines the hero. Forget product placements like Pepsi and the 'Military' again - this film was probably funded by Big Pharma. Pharma like the criminal bankers, are taking all sorts of hits recently, because we have woken up to their antics of poisoning innocent folk for profit. Brad has jumped on the bandwagon and cashed in, deciding to further propagate the illusion that Vaccines are not really about population control at all, or creating sickness among the population. They are about saving the species. What utter BS.

    The funniest thing is.. the silly people who rate this garbage 10/10. As a movie it's crap in the first place - inexplicable plot holes, shaky shaky shaky shaky retarded camera - utter stupidity - teeth chattering, neck smelling zombies - I could go on. Lift the thin veil and at its core, it's subtle pharmaceutical propaganda. I can't think of a combination more wretched. It's lucky to get one out of ten.

    Waste of money, waste of brainpower, waste of time, waste of critical thinking, waste of life. Millions spent on nonsense, while billions starve all over the globe. We don't need a zombie outbreak to wake humanity from it's slumber, we just need a species with a conscience.

    Hollywood is so exposed, it's becoming a farce. They are selling you lies and BTW, if you are another idiot that likes to credit Vaccines with 'saving the world' - go and look at the evidence of their ingredients, links to soft tissue cancers, autism, death. It's taught in medical school. The media tell you what Big Pharma want you to know.

    48,000 people alone were maimed in India by these things last year. Of course they are safe. Of course.

    'We will control the population with Vaccines'. Bill Gates.

    Thanks for reading.
