Bridge of the Doomed

Wow what the hell was that, amateur in every way imaginable. Save your time and money, it's a one a done for whoever made this. I'm actually annoyed I watched it.

The story is pointless, seems like a undisciplined low iq primary schooler wrote the script, the cinematography isn't much better. Whoever wrote the last review must've been a part of the film because it's horrible. Aside from that it's a bunch of has-been actors who have really fallen from grace to be a part of this.

Credit where credit is due, unfortunately none is due here. There was no hook and nothing to keep things in any way interesting, no coherence at all.

Another film funded through indiegogo because no one in the industry is stupid enough to give them money.

Su doesn't wait until the opening credits are over before launching his first zombie attack, and they're consistently red in tooth and claw throughout. This is a B movie, sure, but Bridge of the Doomed fits neatly into the world of Max Brooks and World War Z, updating World War II scenarios to the zombie apocalypse. And this IS a creature feature, because there's something way worse than zombies under that bridge, and it's a proper old-school monster like the one in Michael Mann's The Keep. While this Mahal Empire production doesn't have the expensive studio sheen of ventures like the Dawn of the Dead remake, it's a busy, energetic combat movie that doesn't put many booted feet wrong. And yes, although his character is largely off-screen, Paré comes in swinging with LaSardo for the climax, barrelling in like he's Burt Lancaster and leaving this critic one satisfied customer.

The writing was horrible. The so called acting was ridiculous. I read some reviews and I honestly have to wonder what movie they actually watched. It could not have been this incredibly ridiculous excuse for a movie. Bad script, bad bad bad acting and childlike special effects. Don't waste your time watching this absolute garbage. The acting is by far the worst part of this waste of time. I don't understand how anyone could think this was "Fun" or "Entertaining". It is neither. They may have had fun making this so called movie, but I guarantee if you watch it, you will be sad that you wasted over an hour of your life on this bad joke.

It is getting harder and harder to bring originality to the zombie genre, but Bridge of the Doom manages provide a somewhat novel plot and setting. The action sequences and the zombies looked great for a big budget independent film.

Big fan of Michael Pare since Eddie and the Cruisers so always great to see him in something. The rest of the cast was great including Robert Lasardo, leading lady Kate Watson, Sarah French, & Kimberly Cole.

Also enjoyed this movie's pacing as it had a non stop vibe about it. Overall a fun watch.

Right, well as I sat down to watch the 2022 action horror movie "Bridge of the Doomed", it was because it was a zombie movie that I hadn't already seen. Needless to say that with it being a zombie movie, then there was no doubt about me watching it, as I am a sucker for all things zombie.

Now, I have to say that I wasn't really harboring much of any high hopes for "Bridge of the Doomed", as the movie's cover/poster looked fairly dubious, and also the fact that the movie had Michael Paré and Robert LaSardo in the leading roles, weren't exactly highly functional bait to lure in the audience.

But still, I opted to give director Michael Su's movie a fair chance.

And I will say that "Bridge of the Doomed" was watchable. Sure, it was a very, very generic zombie movie, but there was something slightly enjoyable about the simplicity of the storyline and the lack of a greater motivation to drive the movie. Keep in mind that you're not in for a grand cinematic experience of zombie cinema when you sit down to watch "Bridge of the Doomed".

The acting performances in "Bridge of the Doomed" were as to be expected for a cast ensemble such as it was. Again, you're not in for a grand cinematic experience in that department either.

With "Bridge of the Doomed" being a zombie movie, then you essentially sit down to watch great special effects and gory make-up effects, right? Right! Well, while there is an abundance of zombies in the movie, the special effects are low budget; some of them so very low budget that they opted for that zombie make-up where they slap grey and green body paint and some latex prostethetics in the face, and forget all about coloring the areas around and near the ears and the neck down. It looks so stupid, and it just makes a zombie movie slip down on the ladder in terms of being enjoyable. Heck, I even saw a zombie where they had painted the back of the hands gray, but left the palm and up to halfway on the fingers without the paint. So yeah, the zombie make-up in "Bridge of the Doomed" is bad, but at least they tried.

If you enjoy zombie movies, especially the low budget ones, then you will probably find some kind of enjoyment in watching "Bridge of the Doomed". But if you prefer a zombie movie with a proper budget, proper practical and CGI effects, proper storyline, etc. Then "Bridge of the Doomed" is not the best of choices.

My rating of "Bridge of the Doomed" lands on a generous four out of ten stars, based mostly on the amount of action and number of zombies in the movie.
