Johnny Z

The description makes it sound like something slightly different and intriguing. However after a few minutes. We could easily see how low budget and nonsensical this piece of filmmaking is. It's supposedly a zombie film but the genre feels extremely dull, generic and simply boring. The tone is severely off, no thrills, no suspense. It feels more like a borderline drama- without any drama.

The camera angles to several fight scenes are filmed in an amateurish way. The acting isn't great either, nor are the characters. Whom we don't exactly know who is who or even remember their names.

Overall there is just a lot lacking to make this movie any worthwhile. The story's execution is terrible and worst of all it's boring. We simply don't care for the title character of Johnny Z.

From start too finish i was hooked if i had the funds i would put it into the next one, The story line is great and leaves many doors unopened for the next film, The charecters played there roles extremely well and were well chosen for the roles, Bad points i have to agree with a critic said there is not much premtive background at the start of the movie your kind of just thrown into it not there exact words, i understand this point and to retaliate i say that this wasnt the point of the movie from what i can tell and yes there is multiple ways this world could have played out rolling into the breakout of patient Z but it has enough detail for what it is to keep it going and hook the veiwer, The graphics and gore is admirable all in all for a low budget film its a 10/10 from me i hope a good few movies roll of this i cant wait for the next one peice and love CM.

It sounded hilarious yet interesting, so I decided to check it out. Honestly? I really didn't think it was that bad. The budget is what hurts the film the most. The cheesy cgi and bad actors (minus a couple like Johnny and Johnray) hurt the interesting premise and great relationship dynamic between Johhny and Johnray. The fight scenes are fun and entertaining and for a low budget some of the gore looked good, it's just when you have the cheesy cgi blood and bad dead body acting that hurts it. Story is post apocolypse, pretty basic stuff. I could have done without the fight club like scene, especially because bossman's character was so annoying. They do set up for a sequel, so maybe with a bigger budget the next film can reach the potential that this world has. Overall, I personally (you don't have to agree) it was a surprisingly fun and entertaining film that I had no expectations for, don't let some of the issues deter you because it's not half bad.

In a genre that is drowning in poor story lines this one could have been interesting. Not unique, similar things have been done before. But the problem is the acting and pacing. I am also not sure how they chose their leads. It didn't seem like they had a martial arts background, or if they did, they didn't use it to the best of their ability. And bad acting can be fun, if there is something nice to look at, but in this movie most of the extras are more attractive then the leads. So again, not sure how they cast for this. But if you love all things Zombie, it's worth a watch, but if you only like well written and acted zombie movies, or even poorly acted or camp movies with hot leads, you will want to pass.

No pun intended - the movie is quite nice for a low budget affair. You have to like the ferocity and the passion they bring on the table! Stunts are well done and the action is really well shot (as is the whole movie by the way). Still all that being said, the movie has its flaws and you really have to like that kind of stuff in general to really rally behind it.

Poster looks nice and gives you a first look into the mindset of the filmmaker. Actors are well chosen too. Characters are interesting and the movie knows its audience. So be wary what you want to watch or do not like to see ... and act accordingly. I have seen worse, but I have seen better too of course.
