Walking Santa Barbara
Being a fan of the zombie theme as well as post-apocalypse, she avoided this series for a long time - I was not thankful for the trailer, the actors are quite ordinary-looking. Recently, my list of zombie films started thin out and I rubbed my hands, tuned in to the drama and non-trivial plot, sat down to enjoy the 1st episode. Unfortunately, sheer disappointment blog with movies reviews a bit of rabies. Frenzy from high ratings and loud positive reviews. Obviously, I could keep the opinion of those people who write praises to myself, but there isn't any doubt concerning the maturity from the thought of these people. Yes, it is clear that it is a film. But guys - this is the a higher level directing and script underneath the floor. Has mastered the very first two installments of the primary season, you cannot find any desire to search further.
From the very first minutes Needed to wind. I adore atmospheric films, dull landscapes, whipping up a tragic atmosphere ... This is not here. Neither the camera work, nor the inventory found in the frame and other connected things helped. The scenes are prolonged to the point of exhaustion. A very good negative is the 1st perhaps the series. The opinion they wanted to cheat me never left me - the reasoning was removed from the truly great film'28 days later ', using the creators'imagination, apparently, quite tight. Next is the chief character. Typically, it seemed that a grownup man - his wife, children - behaves himself so stupidly, but from his stupid actions and inappropriate behavior the hand itself literally magnetized for the forehead. Yes, it is not necessary being heroic, but to behave rationally, a minimum of with a drop of courage and ingenuity, and it could be far better (his visit to the city with zombies, over a horse, in the form of a sheriff's deputy is often a separate fail).
Regarding the acting: weak. It appears as if a drama, they don't care. Neither fish nor fowl. The leading character has one emotion - tension.
Action is contained in micro-sizes, several interesting decisions have taken place - only that predictability kills my way through the bud. Not interested.
How are you affected from the series itself is not clear. It looks like it has to be as planned, but it does work in a poor way. Why suddenly zombies, where, when - at the least some information. But no, we're shown the relationship of men and women, their idle chatter and running around. This appears to be the key motive of your series. The heroes, having not power on their brains, do what's necessary but try to live and accommodate the changed world. If anyone came here with the zombies, don't waste your time.
P. s. that negative reviews are not particularly favored here - they may be simply mercilessly minus. Although people give above convincing facts - like endless cartridges, food, gasoline, the hopeless stupidity of heroes, short sleeves ... Seriously, knowing that a zombie bite is 100% fatal, can you walk across the road inside a thin shirt? ... Or knowing that zombies react towards the sound, loudly call their friend? ...
It would seem a trifle - but the normal thought of the image consists of the trifles.
