World War Z (2013) 7/10

Starring : Brad Pitt, Mirielle Enos, Daniella Kertesz
Director : Marc Forster
Running Time : 124 mins

Gerry Lane (Pitt) and his family find their worlds turned upside down when a bizarre and unknown infection causes people to be transformed into flesh-eating zombie like creatures. As a former UN investigator, he is coerced into taking on a dangerous mission to discover what the cause of the outbreak is, and to try to discover if there is any sort of cure before all of mankind is devoured.

In spite of being action packed and filled with visually stunning effects, this is a little bit on the humdrum side with very little actual character to any of the characters involved in the film. Everyone is pretty one-dimensional with barely any background or personality to make you care when they get eaten alive or whatever. Worth watching for the effects, but don’t expect to be wowed by the script.
