Alone

Can be a bit depressing at times and different spin on zombies. Donald Sutherland plays a great part. An ok watch.

This is a remake of the Korean film 'Alive', which is a much better version.

Who cares if it's better or worse than the Korean version. This was an enjoyable, well paced film. Had a good mix of despair, horror ,hope and romance. Some truly edge of your seat moments. The zombies were fast and plentiful. Reminded me of those from 28 days later. Yes, there were the usual stupid moments as in most horror films, such as being in intense situations but easily dropping your guard, putting your weapon down, not locking the door etc etc. While being annoying I guess these things happen to add tension. What did bug me though was the main actor. I think he'd been hired from over actors anonymous. In a movie where the idea is to be quiet to avoid zombie detection this bloke shouts, screams and grunts at every opportunity. Anyway, overall it's worth a watch.

You might have noticed that this was a copy of the South Korean movie #alive, but if you check credits; they both have the same writer. So I don't think the script was stolen, it was just a replica with few changes to serve the American audience as usual. However; that being said. The Korean version was much better on the storyline take, the acting, the zombie makeup, even the romance was better.

It was a good movie, but since I've seen the Korean version, I couldn't put more than 5 to this one.

The 'zombies' n this one have a unique twist that as a guy who watches ANYTHING post-apocalyptic, I appreciate a fun wrinkle. The love story is actually feasable and we'll done, meaning believable for the most part and not overdone. It works as a PART of the story. Other than Donald Sutherland I had never heard of these actors but they all we're solid; no one took me out of it or anything. Anyone rating this too low has just not seen what awfulness there truly is in the Post-Apocalypse genre wasteland.

I get that this is a an American production but if you are to take a concept from overseas kindly do it justice not, half baked effort
