The acting is mediocre, which I can handle. The dialogue (when explaining the plot) is cringe worthy like a B movie, which is fine for a B movie but this attempts some realism and an interesting direction. It only shows how minimal the whole idea really is. It's a rage virus. End of.
The dialogue the rest of time is just boring. It tells us nothing about the characters and doesn't reveal anything interesting story wise. Dialogue is strictly to go from a to b.This makes the characters bland. The formula of quiet bit followed by shaky zombie attacks or shaky action got tiresome, and to be honest it never even happened that much.
The zombies themselves sound like something from old Dr Who. The look of the movie is of one that's aged badly. Where are all the bodes? London is a busy capital yet no bodies. I'm sure the idea of a desolate London shot won over logic. The challenge of a movie with little characters is to make the ones you have really interesting. Let them take an emotional journey. Let some big ideas happen from their dialogue. Not here. You have to make the small amount of story actually interesting too. Nope. Just a virus and filler scenes. The events that make the plot points are just dull. Supermarket scene? Rape soldiers? Why?
Brian Gleeson is the only one that made his character have at least some emotional warmth. The rest may as well have been cardboard cutouts.
It gets even worse near the end with the dumb soldiers.
A failure of an attempt of a serious zombie movie.
