puuoor Who would call this a scary movie after watching wrong turn???
exphunter A truly amazing performance given by everyone in this movie, Moving background music that seems to fit perfectly, A new and interesting take on the Zombie apocalypse genre. Based on the book of the same title by M. R. Carey.My only nit pick is the moldy zombies (hungrys) costume/ make up was not Spectacular but they still did an amazing job considering it is not CGI and there would have been sooo many actors/actresses who would have to have the intense bubbly makeup put on. i imagine this would have taken quite some time. However the outstanding performances and general feel given from the movie far out weighs the negatives. I highly recommend watching this film.I am not sure if the reference to Ancient Greek Myths is used in the book but it is brilliantly used in the movie.This one goes in my personal 'best movies of all time' list.
jmvscotland The above title is just one line from the script of this incredibly dumb and unbelievable hash of a movie.A rating of 6.7 on IMDb implies that a movie might be watchable and that one's enjoyment or otherwise will probably just come down to a matter of personal taste. I had no taste at all for this one. Nothing about it was convincing, plausible, or even very interesting or engaging. The script was woefully bad.It started interestingly enough and was slightly intriguing for about the first 15-20 minutes. But then, oh dear oh dear oh dear!!! Just plain stupid with cliche after cliche. It kind of reminded me of, but wasn't quite as stupid I have to say, as that crap from South Africa a couple of years ago "Chappie" which I also panned here because it was even worse than this similar pile.I disliked just about everything about "The Girl Who Had All The Gifts". And, by the way, who exactly was that girl who had all the gifts. It can't have been Melanie who was a hungry and who had just appalling table manners. She didn't display any particular gifts, apart from an ability to catch pigeons and cats for a light snack and to communicate with other hungry style youngsters with growls and snorts. And that ending with the young hungries taking school lessons from Miss Justineau while she was safely cocooned in a mobile laboratory. I had to laugh out loud at that point. It was the perfect ending to an utterly forgettable movie. God, how I wish I hadn't wasted 110 minutes and 70 baht on this pile of merde. Don't waste ytour time and money
Zen Andrew Archer First half of the movie is an effective setup for an interesting look at a zombie apocalypse. But sadly the writing quickly descends into stereotypical dumb horror movie tropes. Then it turns into an episode of the "The Tribe". I never knew it was possible for an actor to "grunt" unconvincingly, but that is on display here. A lot. Some great people in the cast (Close, Arterton and the mighty Considine) but sadly let down by a bad script. The last scene made me laugh out loud it was so cheesy.
