Walking Santa Barbara
Being hot for the zombie theme plus the post-apocalypse, she avoided this series for years - I wasn't astounded by the trailer, the actors are certainly ordinary-looking. Recently, my listing of zombie films started thin out and I rubbed my hands, tuned into your drama and non-trivial plot, sat down to view the first episode. Unfortunately, sheer disappointment with a bit of rabies. Frenzy from high ratings and loud positive read reviews. Certainly, I could keep the opinion of those who write praises to myself, but it is obvious about the maturity with the perception of these people. Yes, it is evident that this is the film. But guys - this can be a amount of directing and script beneath the floor. Has mastered the primary two episodes of the first season, there's no desire to appear further.
From the initial minutes I want to to wind. Everyone loves atmospheric films, dull landscapes, whipping up a tragic atmosphere ... This isn't here. Neither the camera work, nor the inventory in the frame and other related things helped. The scenes are long to begin exhaustion. A very secure negative is the earliest the main series. The opinion they wanted to cheat me never left me - the idea was taken from the great film'28 days later ', with the creators'imagination, apparently, quite tight. Next is the leading character. In general, it seemed that grown-up man - his wife, children - behaves himself so stupidly, but from his stupid actions and inappropriate behavior the hand itself literally magnetized towards the forehead. Yes, there is no need to generally be heroic, but to behave rationally, at the least with a small amount of courage and ingenuity, and it will be a lot better (his trip to metropolis with zombies, on the horse, by means of a sheriff's deputy is actually a separate fail).
Around the acting: weak. It appears like a drama, but they also don't care. Neither fish nor fowl. The chief character has one emotion - tension.
Action is contained in micro-sizes, several interesting decisions have got place - only that predictability kills my way through the bud. Not interested.
How are you affected within the series itself is not clear. It feels like it should be as planned, but it does work in an unsatisfactory way. Why suddenly zombies, where, when - at least some information. But no, we are shown the partnership of an individual, their idle chatter and running around. This looks like it's the key motive on the series. The heroes, having deterred their brains, do anything whatsoever but try to thrive and conform to the changed world. If someone came here as a result of zombies, don't waste your time.
P. s. I see that negative comments are not particularly favored here - they can be simply mercilessly minus. However give more than convincing facts - like endless cartridges, food, gasoline, the hopeless stupidity of heroes, short sleeves ... Seriously, realizing that a zombie bite is 100% fatal, might you walk across town inside of a thin shirt? ... Or knowing that zombies react towards the sound, loudly call their friend? ...
It would seem a trifle - but the final thought of the image consists of which trifles.
