The Earth When We Knew It Has Disappeared But Keeping Humanity Is Our Choice
In 2010, the TV series "The Walking Dead" was introduced a tv personality, suddenly to become cult and gathering a large audience of fans. The first season of The Walkers was directed by Frank Darabont, who had already got his mitts horror movies, famous for his highly successful screen adaptations of Stephen King's novels. Despite the fact that Darabont subsequently left the project, "The Walking Dead" always stayed afloat, changing showrunners, but without losing the corporate atmosphere, even when each season was distinguished by a special style, or, more correctly, individuality. The pilot episode of the primary season attracted over 5 million viewers through the screens, and also the season itself received an exceptionally warm welcome and excellent reviews, including from professional critics. The plot from the series involves the story plot of former police man Rick Grimes, who wakes up in the hospital in the course of a zombie apocalypse and tries to find his family and survive in the field of the revived dead. After a while, Rick makes new friends and enemies, moving along the colonial of the United States and shooting crowds of hungry walking dead.
At the first viewing, the series leaves the impression of a task that sets a brand new bar for creating zombie slashers, partially bypassing even the most used film franchise in its genre "Resident Evil", certainly, not in the quality of camera work, in the condition of elaboration of your universe. "The Walking Dead" bribes already by the fact that they are not yet another shooter, which has a ridiculous script and characters written "on his or her knees." Thus, the "Walking Dead" managed, as we say, "shoot" for the similar reason as being the "Game of Thrones" released each year later. During the production of the last bright fantasy of the amount of "The Lord on the Rings" there was clearly practically no, as well as the series, conveniently occupying a clear chair niche, became a cult. So are zombie horror - yes, they shine in quantity, yet not in quality; few films on this genre are able to pleasantly surprise, for many stereotyped and mediocrity are so characteristic, while "Walking" is made modestly, though taste. The project doesn't involve the heavens of the primary magnitude, and a lot of actors, quite the opposite, become popular on account of their roles in The Walking Dead. Your capacity to purchase, apparently, would not allow turning to expensive camera work, plot moves are uncomplicated, and morality is usually completely banal - value all your family and do not substitute. It appears there is nothing special to hook the viewer with, but all this can be forgiven and pays off with interest, with thanks to the mesmerizing atmosphere from the post-apocalypse, captivating from the earliest minutes of viewing.
The age rating of your project "18+" speaks for itself - blood, meat, the appearance of dismembered bodies and broken skulls are abundant here; minimal episode is finished without murders by survivors or walkers, but that isn't why the fans love the series. Although at first glance, The Walking Dead is only a crimson jackpot, but when you dig deeper, apparently the ominous zombie apocalypse is simply the scenery against which the main story develops. The storyline of survivors fighting to preserve the most important human values, including love, friendship, family. Situation of methods difficult it should be to remain humane and human in inhuman conditions. And, apparently, it was these ideas that inspired last year's South Korean thriller Train to Busan, which managed to see a hackneyed topic from another angle and tell a touching story of the zombie horror, adding a touch of soulfulness. Hence the series itself, with all the current bloodshed abundance, is not an adaptation of "Left 4 Dead", built on the key of "run and shoot", where such a thought will interest only young people and, first off, adolescents. Here, an excellent portion of the screen time is devoted to the disclosure of characters and their reincarnations, the connection bewteen barefoot and shoes and conflicts; the dramatic content of "The Walking Dead" occupies one of the main places within the script, as well this makes it clear to us that there is little romance in survival in post-apocalypse conditions, it is a severe test of strength, where there's no place for your weak, where even one of several living - like among wolves.
However, you will find a second side to that medal, behind which, obviously, lies the most significant weaknesses of the series. Sometimes the bias towards drama towards detriment in the drive and tense atmosphere makes all the series look bland, dragging on only occasionally, helping to make the plot progress seem indecently slow. Another specific feature of "Walkers" is, not immediately apparent, a defieicency of freshness of the planet, linked to the monotony of the setting and also the monotony from the scenery. In addition to the unhurried development of events, this makes some disappointment, for the reason that series, flashing brightly from the outset and setting a robust pace, ceases to make it, rarely returning to seriously stormy action and vigorous narration. But what definitely won't let you receive bored could be the many colorful and deep characters.
