    Lukewarm Movie

    by MedRed

    With zombies currently all the rage, I'm not totally surprised to see a romance twisted up with "The Walking Dead."

    Warm Bodies is good for a few chuckles and is a movie I would describe as "cute."
    Despite the zombie aspect, Warm Bodies will mostly appeal to young females. Anyone with any affinity for traditional zombies will either hold their hand out at the screen while thinking "Come on!" or will cringe at the thought of what logically should be happening to the overexposed humans. Oh yeah...this movie is slow.

    There are quite a few inconsistencies in the actions of the zombies, and more than a few "Why?!" moments for the actions of the humans. There are many questions to be answered by the gaping plot holes and the story has zero interest in fleshing them out.

    Warm Bodies doesn't make the best romantic date movie, nor does it offer up any substantial chills. What is does offer is something weirdly charming.

    If you like my reviews, add me as a fan. I'll add you back!

    Warm Hearted...

    I thought this movie was going to be a dud. Usually when the trailer makes a movie look both comical, romantic and scary you just know that there's going to be some issues. There WERE some parts that were startling... at one point in the movie my teenager jumped. It was quite cute. However, I found that in the end there was ACTUALLY a good lesson learned and a moral to the story that most older kids and teenagers should pick-up on and this 37 year-old mom of 4 even enjoyed. That is, "don't judge a book by it's cover" and "giving people second chances"... yes the movie was corny but I'd see it again. I'd even buy it once it is out on DVD.

    I would NOT bring a little kid to this movie though. Some idiot did and the kid bawled through parts of the movie.

    Sweet Zombie Movie

    We enjoyed the sweet and lighthearted humor of Warm Bodies. It's a great twist on what we normally see with Zombie movies, and gives us hope for the aftermath of any Zombie apocalypse in the future. Great movie to see on date or with your best pals.

    A guy's chick flick

    by

    The movie is the solution to the types of movie us guys hate. Finally, we have a movie that gives the girls what they like wrapped up in a package that guys like. Its not a horror rom com its a rom com that has horror elements. I found myself enjoying the movie just as much as my date did. Granted, some parts seemed to stretch a bit out but it still went by pretty quick. Ladies, you can feel free to suggest this to your boyfriends and guys, feel free to trick your girls into watching a zombie movie.

    Zombie Movie! What could be better

    The Zombie's side of the story of course. The character development was done quite nicely. There was not a single point where you are bored. It's really a classic teenage love story wrapped around the zombie theme. You empathize with the main character and share funny, serious, and gentle moments with him. You are on his side from minute 1 and for a change we get to see the other side of zombies...the side that doesn't always want to eat your brains.

    If you are a fan of the zombie genre. it's a must go.

    Not expecting the Romance!

    It was funny and romantic and suspenseful! It had several laugh out loud moments- and I loved the characters. The soundtrack was well played. All around great!

    A zombie chick flick??

    by atesim

    Hi,

    I wouldn't have known this was a book if it weren't for the flocks of girls holding a copy in hand while watching this movie.

    If you read the book, I have nothing to offer you - since I haven't read it.

    If you haven't read the book, then I offer this (potential spoilers!):

    1) I thought the movie was a thoughtful and original twist on one of the things mankind fears most - zombie apocalypse.

    2) I like all genres of movies. But I'll admit I'm not so inclined to think romance and zombies can mix, so I wasn't sure how I felt about "love will save the world" romance. My verdict is that I quite enjoyed it. I can't think of any zombie flicks where there is a happy ending with hope for the human race??

    3) I did invite some friends, but they weren't so committed to it. I went solo. Definitely fine to watch solo. If you have chick friends, definitely round up a posse, they'll love it.

    One last thing,

    BRAINS!

    New Style of Zombie

    It wasn't the greatest movie ever made, but it was certainly different than most zombie movies. Starts a bit slow, but quickly gets going and some great funny laugh out loud moments. This film won't win any Oscar's, but it was worth seeing.

    Absolutely Wonderful. MUST GO!

    I loved Warm Bodies so much, I paid to see it twice. If you're searching for something different, this is it. Warm Bodies put it's own awesomely unique twist on a zombie apocalypse that is neither goofy nor corney, but sincerely wonderful. There is plenty of comedy throughout the movie and I cannot wait to get it on DVD.

    Cute Witty Zombie Romance reboot

    The trailer for the movie gave it away (as expected). Regardless it was a very entertaining revamp of the normal zombie genre with a love teen-ish romance. Defiantly wasn't a chickfilc though.

    Fantastic!

    Went to the premiere last night, and I was pleasantly surprised. It was still a zombie film with some definite gory action going on, but it was witty, funny, and unique. I would highly recommend.

    Great movie!

    by Apb16

    Unique combination of creepiness with humor. Interesting character development with humorous observations by main character and introspection by female lead. Offers zombie perspective intermingled with post apocalyptic imagery. My almost 13 year old enjoyed it thoroughly as well.

    Cute

    by

    Warm Bodies was cute and a bit funky. Not sure what we expected, but the story was so original that we had to see it. Probably won't see it twice, but it was light and funny, gross at times but what can you expect with a zombie movie.

Some of the jokes in the movie made us all laugh, Some of the parts in the movie I was on the edge of my seat !! So over all Warm Bodies is a must have for my collection of movies !!!!!!!

    Quirky, original, funny, warmhearted

    I went in with high expectations and they were met. The movie had the right about of humor, horror, romance and strangeness. The pace was about right and enjoyed the performances of the main characters. Recommend.
