Episode # 375 World War Z with Elwood Jones and The Reverend Scott K

Flixwatcher: A Netflix Film Review Podcast

Elwood Jones (Asian Cinema Film Club podcast) and The Reverend Scott K (The Church of Tarantino podcast) return to Flixwatcher to review Elwood’s choice World War Z.

World War Z (2013) is an action zombie film film directed by Marc (Quantum of Solace) Forster and inspired by the book of the same name by Max Brooks. Brad Pitt stars as Gerry Lane, an ex United Nations investigator who is tasked with finding the source and also a potential cure for a sudden zombie apocalypse.

World War Z’s biggest downfall is that it came out after the genre defining 28 Days Later. In its attempt to out do 28 Days Later running zombies it creates zombies that aren’t really zombies. It’s also biggest downfall is its decision to not stay faithful to the source material and take its name but go in a different direction. It also fails the genre by being a PG-13 certificate and lacks the gore to be a true zombie film.

This was reflected in the recommendability scores, it’s two hour plus runtime affected repeat viewing and engagement categories to give an overall score of 3.37.
