Walking Santa Barbara
Being hot for the zombie theme as well as the post-apocalypse, she avoided this series for a long period - I wasn't thankful for the trailer, the actors are incredibly ordinary-looking. Recently, my directory of zombie films started thin out and I rubbed my hands, tuned to the drama and non-trivial plot, sat down to enjoy the very first episode. Unfortunately, sheer disappointment with some rabies. Frenzy from high ratings and loud positive best movies reviews. Obviously, I will help keep the opinion of those who write praises to myself, but there's no question in regards to the maturity from the thought of these people. Yes, it is evident that that is a film. But guys - this is the a higher level directing and script beneath the floor. Has mastered the earliest two episodes of the 1st season, you cannot find any desire to appear further.
From the primary minutes I desired to wind. I adore atmospheric films, dull landscapes, whipping up a tragic atmosphere ... It's not 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 strong negative is the first section of the series. The sensation how they want to cheat me never left me - the concept was extracted from the truly amazing film'28 days later ', using the creators'imagination, apparently, quite tight. Next is the primary 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 to your forehead. Yes, there is no need to be heroic, but to behave rationally, a minimum of with a small amount of courage and ingenuity, and it will be much better (his holiday to the city with zombies, over a horse, by using a sheriff's deputy is often a separate fail).
Regarding the acting: weak. It looks like a drama, however they don't care. Neither fish nor fowl. The chief character has one emotion - tension.
Action is seen in micro-sizes, a number of interesting decisions have got place - only that predictability kills all things in the bud. Not interested.
What are the results from the series itself is not clear. It appears like it needs to be as planned, but it does work in a bad way. Why suddenly zombies, where, when - at the very least some information. But no, we're shown the relationship of men and women, their idle chatter and running around. This definitely seems to be the principle motive on the series. The heroes, having switched off their brains, do anything but try to survive and adjust to the changed world. If anyone came here because of 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 more than convincing facts - like endless cartridges, food, gasoline, the hopeless stupidity of heroes, short sleeves ... Seriously, understanding that a zombie bite is 100% fatal, can you walk across the road in a very thin shirt? ... Or with the knowledge that zombies react for the sound, loudly call their friend? ...
You would have it a trifle - but the general thought of the picture consists of these trifles.
