Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead on Netflix was marketed as a fun, exciting action comedy heist movie. But it failed to live up to expectations. Imagine my shock.

Snyder is simply demonstrating that zombie movies are tired and overdone. They’re basically cringe now, relying on gratuitous violence as a well-worn crutch. It was interesting when zombie media, like Dawn of the Dead or Walking Dead, had actual substance like thought-provoking commentary on matters including consumer culture and tribalism. Now zombie media is stupid. Cheap thrills for the masses. But it gets views, so it gets pumped out ad nauseum. Yawn. Soulless and an insult to the viewer.

To be fair, Aliens has three disposable Marine characters in it (Crowe, Dietrich and Wierzbowski), two of the played by stuntmen rather than actors. But it did a good job of investing you in the others by featuring six of them up front and making them all seem like real people. You had the Three That Survive the Hive (Hudson, Hicks and Vasquez) and the Three That Die to Raise The Stakes (Drake, Apone and Frost). And Cameron was careful to make sure none of those six got any more screen time than the others before the hive scene, so that the audience could get to know and like them. So when Frost gets the old napalm bath, and Drake gets a face full of acid, it matters to you.

This movie is probably one of the most densely packed compilation of everything that's wrong about the cinema from the last 15 years. Everything is incoherent and absurd. Characters are idiots, have theatrical attitudes (posers) far detached from the context of the film, or are simply there for identity or gender politics (one latino check, girl that look like man check, girl that disobeys and endangers team, check, white traitor with sunglasses check etc...). By the way, wouldn't you be scared to set foot in that kind of city, in the middle of those creatures ? I would. The people in the Dawn of the Dead remake were (very) afraid, and for good reason. And the atmosphere of total terror and despair in movies like Day of the Dead, Savini's Night of the Living Dead from 1990 or the original Dawn of the Dead is so sick you could slice it with a knife. What we have here is the first disco-zombie movie, where fancy boys, brainless bodybuilders and annoying girls all come to party in the middle of a neon lit arena filled with dry running-dancing bio-mutants that explode with digital blood. All that in an almost giggly vibe...I think George Romero turned around several times in his grave (I don't forgive Survival of the Dead but the other movies are legend)... And the last funny thing : considering the amount of clean up the small group of unprepared characters did in the movie, I can't figure out why a complete army wouldn't deal with that in 2 days without breaking a sweat...

The drinker must've really wanted to get this review over with. He literally just jumped from the the first encounter with the alpha to the end, skipping over the part where the suspicious guy kills someone in a room right next to the rest of the crew and no one notices and also the part where the daughter tries to track down her friend after the chopper flight time changes from 1 day to 1 hour. Or the plot where the vault owner lied to them about what they were there to steal. I don't blame him for skipping 90% of a terrible movie but I'm just impressed by how much more there was to rail on that was not mentioned. I guess the stuff he did mention trumped everything else.

No lie. You could spend 3 hours going over all the way this movie sucked balls, and still have plenty left for a 'snyder cut'! Garbage like this won't even become a cult classic.

Oh come on: give Drinker a break. It's a "Zack Snyder movie"; that in itself suggests you can skip 90% of the film's runtime without losing anything.

Why go through all of that when its essentially the same thing? Lots of good ideas throw into the trash and not giving a damn about them later in the movie, the characters show no interesting traits and add nothing to the plot besides been zombie's food, all the plans and ideas are just stupid decisions like this was Prometheus or something like that.

I would've liked a movie focused around how the zombie's went from shamblers to an actual society; that intrigued me. And I wanted to see more zombie tiger. Like, he should've been a major component of the story that the team needed to kill.

@@DarkPassenger 90% of the good indie movies that come out each year use fairly unknown actors and most are better, and include better acting, than most Hollywood blockbusters. Anyway, the main actors in this film were fairly well known, just cause you hadn't heard of them, doesn't mean they were unknown. And regarding Bautista, the main problem with Army of the Dead was the writing, he was very good imo.

He is not the only one to blame here: Zack also co-wrote Justice League and 300, which had pretty decent scripts. This one, on the other hand, was also co-written by Joby Harold. And it is rarely a good sign when blockbuster-producers from controversial studios (like Simon Kinberg, who wrote several VERY shitty superhero scripts) get a hand in writing them.
