Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead

Zombies are serious business and I prefer it with a dose of action and grit. Trying to merge zombies with slapstick and romcom is a slippery slope. Zombieland is probably the best attempt at such a movie. This movie started out well but loses steam and given the plethora of zombie movies out there uses the predictable nuances of zombie movies and therefore offers nothing new to the viewer. The role of the heroine is very underdeveloped and the portrayal of the heroes in eastern movies are one dimensional. If you are bereft of choice and finances to accesss a good movie, this movie will occupy you for two hours. However it is like fast food, it stills the hunger but does not contribute to the dietary requirements. Give it a skip.

People who don't watch Japanese Cinema or people who wants deep philosophical meaning in a fun movie should watch scorsese not this. I am a Hollywood fan but Japanese Cinema has it's charm... Over the top Energy and all around fun time. From Alice in Borderland to confessions to kamikaze girls... Japanese cinema is such unique experience... So stop listening to such fake so called cinephiles... And enjoy this. It's just a great popcorn flick with fun time all around! And Yes all the other japanese cinema that I named here. You should check them out too. Japan is not just about anime but cinema is great too. Akira Kurosawa was legend who inspired everyone... Yet Japanese cinema is still underrated due to people being ignorant or like negative comments... Not understanding the difference between fun film and serious film.

Opens strong but slows down after 45 minutes. Gets to be quite boring unlike dawn of the dead. It's suppose to be funny but it isn't. Zombies seem to suddenly stop running and get stupider as the days go by. It's ok if you have a couple of hours on your hand but not worth a rewatch. Acting was ok but nothing great. I never felt a connection to any of the main characters. Make up of the zombies was top notch however. Ending was also very predictable. There are far more better zombie films out there. And the bucket list probably wouldn't be on the top ones list if they were in the middle of zombie apocalypse. Just saying.

Most of live action that adapted from book and anime are end up dissapointing. This one is not an exception. My expectation is low since the format is a movie, while the zoom-100 manga is a series, so there will be a lot of part will be cut, but oh holy shittt, it's even worse than i expect.

At first it is decent, the cinematography is vibrant, help to set the mood, but as time goes by, it's clear the director has no clear vision where it should go. The zombie is so slow and easy to fight , where is the thrilling part? The plot is questionable like why don't they have police or soldier to protect people in the dangerous situation. And bruh the hell is shark zombie with leg. The acting is either flat and dull or overreact, there is no in between. Among the 4 main roles, only the uncle one who can act,the rest need to go back to acting school

It supposed to be fun, but it lost every element that supposed to make it into enjoyable. It's cringey snozefest at the best. What a waste of time.

The movie is not a zombie in the common sense that we always see. The Z's in this movie responses to sound and sometime human. Sometimes they don't even follow this group at all. They walked silently and the zombies ignored them. What logic do they have in the movie. If they are hungry for human flesh, they should follow human scent, blood or brains. I think the movie has some good part regarding spirit and that is the main point for the movie. Zombie is the smoke screen, they put it on just to be one of main condition among others that gel the group together. If you just want to see the Japanese zombie version. This is it. They are not exactly the same as you might want. One funny thing is that, you won't see they used knives or guns to fight zombies. Just their bare hands which is too foolish. You might thought, didn't your guys watch any zombie movies at all? If you are streaming it and really want to skim through it, I recommend 1.5X speed and you miss nothing, really!
