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.

There's a Korean film that came out a year or two ago with the same story, plot, everything. And it was much better.

Judging by other reviews, I guess I'm a bit odd since I'm not looking for some deep and meaningful plot in a zombie movie. I appreciated the twist of the infected's mental state, that was interesting. Also, the protagonist is scared, makes failed attempts and therefore gave me a better sense of what might happened, had it been me in his situation. In my own rating system, I give a 5 when the movie is only worth seeing once, less than 5 is a waste of time, and a 6 if I'll see it again in the future. 7 if it's so good that I feel the need to buy it. In these types of movies, a good storyline is a bonus. My primary interest is being entertained by the situation itself. And for that, it's worth watching again.

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.

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
