Apocalypse Z: Le début de la fin

As a fan of zombie movies, I went into this without knowing the plot or heard anything before for this. I saw it because it was with zombies and I gave it a chance. What a pleasant surprise it was.

The movie managed to deliver the stress of being alone in such situation. At start it is slow but it needed so as to feel the character and to care for him and for his car!

The acting was above par the scenery beautiful, the zombies well done and general the feeling of the movie was excellent.

I would recommend it of course to zombie fans.

It remind me a little of 28 days later mixed with walking dead.

Nice little zombie movie!

Well, I just saw this because I had nothing to do, and I just had to catch a quick bite and then leave, but ended up postponing my meeting because I got hooked. The movie was alright, and it had that thriller, apocalypse vibe to it, you can see it's not a high budget movie, but they did very well with what they had, and it worked!

When you think about all the horrible apocalypse movies that had crossed the screen, this is way superior to those. The acting was also acceptable, nothing Bollywood ish over this movie, which I tbh was actually expecting a little bit lmao. I got a little bit the walking dead season 1 vibes watching this.

Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End is a solid addition to the zombie horror genre. While it doesn't bring anything groundbreaking, it's a well-made film with good acting, an engaging story of a man and his cat surviving in what feels like the end of the world, and endless waves of bloodthirsty undead. Notably, this movie features "fast zombies," so expect lots of frantic chases and intense action.

After watching the trailer, I had high expectations, so I was a bit disappointed by the slow start. The first 45 minutes had little action, but it turned out to be the calm before the storm. Suddenly, the pace shifted, and in just a few minutes, Apocalypse Z went from zero to one hundred. From then on, the film was packed with action.

The movie delves into relationships on several levels. The main character has flashbacks about his late wife, frequently tries to talk to his sister, and, of course, converses with his cat. He also meets new allies and enemies among the survivors. As the story progresses, these relationships reveal their importance to both the protagonist's journey and the plot itself.

While the second half has plenty of zombies, Apocalypse Z reminds us that even during an apocalypse, there's something more dangerous than the undead lurking around every corner: other survivors. Resources are scarce, and desperate times bring out the worst in some, while others take a dark pleasure in chaos.

The special effects are skillfully done and add to the film's quality. Certain zombies, like the abandoned baby, are especially haunting. Although we're seeing more child zombies in recent films, not every director takes the risk of showing humanity's youngest transformed into such horrific figures.

The ending may not surprise seasoned fans of the genre; it's predictable but leaves on a cliffhanger. It's my hope that a sequel will explore what happens next, turning Apocalypse Z into a saga like 28 Days Later and other notable zombie series.

In sum, if you enjoy classic zombie horror with compelling human relationships, Apocalypse Z is definitely worth a watch.

Apocalypse Z: El principio del fin is a decent movie, but don't expect much. The story is typical. A normal man flawed with the sadness from his past, tries to survive and reach a place which he thinks it's safe.

The acting is good enough, and the special effects are decent. If you love horror genre and zombie movies, it is for you to have some good time.

The movie adds nothing to the genre, all the plots, twists and jumpscare scenes are there, but we don't get anything new. Survival, horror, fall of society and mankind is all we have seen many times before.

As horror is a genre which is not for everyone, this movie is not able to get much attention, and if you're interested in zombie genre, and a newcomer, there are many better alternatives out there.

Despite the terrible title, this isn't half bad. It may be the most character driven zombie movie I've seen since the wonderful 28 Days Later. These zombies are created through a virus that first has a long incubation period and is under control until a new variant comes along (sound familiar?) in which that time period is reduced to mere minutes and we are off and running. The film starts out strong establishing the main character and a startling car accident. He is the focal point from there on in along with, honest, his cat. His attachment to this cat is one of the more affecting aspects here, though some of it is a bit preposterous that he could contain this cat through all they go through, but it's a movie and they do plug along. It is a bit distracting though as I found myself worrying if it was eating, wondering how did it go to the bathroom, etc. Lol. There's less action in this than most zombie movies these days as this is more character driven. That works for me as constant action & noise can be monotonous. It's a Spanish film and the lead, Francisco Ortiz, was unknown to me, but I hope to see him again as he's a very strong presence. The ending action was a bit much to me, but the final scene is dark and leaves this open to a sequel. Id so, I hope it has a better title.
