Strengths
Brad Pitt as the producer and actor is excellent. He is the one man army against the Zombie apocalyse is widely acceptable...with the long blond hair and neck scarf in the T-shirt Pitt is unbelievably super smart and menacing...Most of the time , Gerry face comes into the screen and we too carried out by his face in the movie..The cast is good and had done their job fine..
Super sonic screenplay ensures the movie pace and from the scene one it's word GO!!!the most memorable sequences in the movies are the introducing Philadelphia pandemic, south Korea scenes, Jerusalem where Zombies Cascading down the wall, hitting chopper, the flight attack..and the climax laboratory scenes are well executed with sufficient panache ..Most of the times is edge of the seat feel...whole movie is nail biter...VFX and 3D in particular space is spectacular....Photography is stunner..night shots and the Israel attempts are mind blowing.
Mark Beltromi add the zombies pepp music with rock strings at the background is fantastic..editing is sharp and fitting..Actions scenes surprisingly exciting...Marc Forster direction is not the classic kind..but whole some entertainment..not much of blood split in the screen where director had chance of doing it...
Weakness
Few of characters and situations are clichéd..not detailed much and left half way or in the middle...story of Zombies and virus broke out reminds us movies such as 28 weeks later, I am Legend, Contagion etc...Other that Brad ..few performances all of them give a Zombie feel
World War Z is not on classic Zombies flick lines..but don t mind Critic's tearing this movie into pieces...Brad Pitt World War Z is surprising exciting, Edge of the seat thriller from start to end, nail biting, spectacular visuals...solid fun.
Verdict:7.5/10( 1 for Brad Pitt, 1 for VFX, 1 for Music,1 for Photography & visuals, 1 for screenplay & direction, .5 for climax lab & Jerusalem scenes, 1 for actions, and 1 for editing)
Movie canvas Punch: World war Z..Smashing..god damn!Go for this Z!!!
