Dead Rising: Jogo Final

2 out of 5 stars.

Dead Rising Endgame is a disappointing sequel to the action zombie genre. Worst than the first movie. First of all the plot is boring. About a government conspiracy and cover ups with the zombrex chips. While the good guys have to travel into a quarantined infected city to stop there servers. Yes. Some things do get left open. Maybe for another sequel. It also lacks the action than the first. But when Chase does fight against zombies. It does get entertaining and creative for those rare moments. Especially during the escalators scene. Also a new addition is the zombies are faster and stronger which makes it a little exciting. The acting has yet to improve. The script and direction is filled with bad dialogue. Slow and boring direction with its sub plot. And uneven pacing. I hope they get to reboot the adaptations and make better movies out of them.

This movie was as good as the first part WatchTower. Instead of being 2 hours like the first one this movie is just an hour and a half. They cut off a lot of the fluff boring part from the first one. The zombie kills in this one I believe is way better than the first movie. However, there's not enough zombies in the film but more soldiers and people than anything else. This movie takes itself a little bit more serious than the first one too. They did leave this movie ending opened for another sequel if they wanted to. I'm surprised they haven't already but it's been 4 years already since this movie came out.

Having watched "Dead Rising: Endgame", I can honestly say that it was every bit as good and bad as the 2015 "Dead Rising" movie. With that being said, I am prone to say that if you didn't enjoy the first movie, then you will not like this 2016 movie either, and vice versa.

A continuation of the story and events that took place in the 2015 "Dead Rising" movie, "Dead Rising: Endgame" puts us back into the quarantine zone, following the brash reporter Chase Carter (played by Jesse Metcalfe) yet again.

As much as I enjoy zombie movies, then "Dead Rising: Endgame", like its predecessor, just never really rose up beyond mediocrity for me. Sure, they are enjoyable movies for what they are, but they are just not outstanding in the zombie genre.

The effects were good, and there is a good amount of action and a good amount of zombies throughout the movie. That is at least something. And the acting was adequate as well.

However, I guess it is the storyline that is just too generic or perhaps because it is something that has been seen before in other zombie movies, that just makes it so bland and generic.

Being a zombie aficionado, of course I had to watch it. And I have done so now, but color me unimpressed. It was a mediocre experience, as I mentioned earlier, and this is not a movie that I can see myself making a second trip back to watching. It just didn't have enough contents to support more than a single viewing. There are far better zombie movies available out there.

But I am sure that hardcore fans of the Dead Rising games will find great enjoyment in these movies.

Why do they keep making movies like this one? How do you exactly make money with this? Is it a long ad for Dead Rising 4? Probably. Is it a good one? No.

There are few returning characters and actors, story is whatever, acting is whatever and so on. While the direction is a bit better than the first movie, this one felt way cheaper and slapped on. For example, right off the bat, while Chase is sneaking around and Jil and Sandra are in the van that's supposed to be inside the restricted zone, you can actually see regular car traffic through van windows. Locations are nondescript and cheap. Zombies are just as scarce as in the first movie. Weapons are dumb and not impressive.

It's just not fun, not scary and except two or three very bland easter eggs, this movie really has no place in Dead Rising video game franchise.

Oh, and yes, that is actually Billy Zane if you were wondering.

Plot is even more of a black hole than before and this whole thing is on the same level as the first one, only slightly worse in general sense. You wont miss anything by not watching it except that hour and change you've just wasted on this movie.

Didnt think through end of times 2 yrs later but yet in back ground shots you see airplanes and moving traffiic well as rainy yet still see people in background walking with umbreallas in a world covered by zombies
