Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
AndryX7 This movie left me disappointed because I definitely had better expectations following REC1 and REC2. The recording and shaky camera won't be there for the largest part, it's full of stupid/nonsense moments and the story isn't that engaging. They also added "funny" scenes for some reasons, totally breaking the suspense, therefore it won't even feel realistic at all. Too much splatter for my taste too. There are three positive things about REC3 though: it features great looking zombies, sounds are excellent, and fortunately it's short (only 80 minutes).
Daniel Rodrigues First of all, I like to state that I'm a "sucker" for zombie movies... Always been, always will be...It was with great expectation that I received this one. I loved REC and REC2, and I thought "Wow, nice... REC3... man, this is awesome". After watching it, this were my thoughts: 1. It's not REC material. The story-line takes a curve, here. The only connection to REC, is the dog, that bit the vet.2. There's only a short sequence filmed in "first person view", or shoulder cam. After that, the whole movie is filmed "third person view", the normal way.3. Yes, the movie is a bit of a "let down" compared to it's predecessors, and even to it's successor, but, then again, if you compare this movie to Hollywood-garbage from the last decade, this one is a jewel, a work of art. It should be rated slightly below Dawn of the Dead (the remake - I don't compared anything to the classic zombie flicks from the 70s and the 80s, because those were 10 out of 10 indeed), or even Shaun of the Dead, but still, it is superior to Land of the Dead, Zombieland, Scout's Guide to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse, and even Dead Rising Watchtower and Dead Rising Endgame - keep in mind that I enjoyed every one of those movies.So, try to watch this putting it's title in the "back of your mind", and watch it without making any connections to REC franchise, and you will certainly have a very nice time... This movie, for me, a serious 7.
Adam Peters (44%) The series that marks a high-point in the found-footage fad comes this decent little time-passer. At a mere 1 hour 20 minutes in length this is still a vastly over-long film for the plot that involves a somewhat typical, and I must say very lavish Spanish wedding that is invaded by zombie demons. And that's about it really. Pretty much the entire wedding ceremony is recorded hand-held style, then once things start to get messy (interesting) this then ditches it and moves into a standard shot film. It's pretty clear that the makers, like almost everyone else, have grown tired of that method of film-making to the point in which they actually mock sub-genre's flaws at one point. The mayhem featured is entertaining, but this is a hollow, quite childish gore flick that unlike the other films in the series this completely lacks all scares. Overall this is worth a look for fans and gore flicks in general, but it's too flawed and base to be a must watch.
packor If you're expecting a movie similar to Rec 1 and Rec 2, you won't find it here. This movie is a gore movie made as a side story to Rec. It contributes nothing to the Rec story and only uses the Rec "zombies" as a basis. In fact, this movie resembles a B movie more than anything else. It has meager amounts of gore, adventure, romance, and comedy, and doesn't specialize in any of them.The movie is fairly enjoyable, as a non-serious film. It basically revolves around a crazy newly wed couple inside a mini-wedding- zombie-apocalypse. This couple does all sorts of extremely crazy things for the sake of staying together with their beloved. The bride, in particular, was wild and fun to watch; while the groom more like a desperate man who would do anything for his wife.I do have a complain to make about this movie. Just like Rec 2, this movie is severely lacking... in sense. For Rec 3, the directors threw all sense out the window. At the very beginning of the film, it is made clear where the source of this particular infestation comes from. It is from the Groom's uncle, who was bitten at the vet's the PREVIOUS day(and I say previous, because the wedding starts early in the day, and if you were going to attend an all-day wedding, you have no business going to the vet's early in the morning. He also got bitten by a "dead" dog, which means that the vet massacre had already occurred before he got there). Following Rec's logic, it takes less than an hour for any infected person to "zombify". Yet the uncle does not turn until night time, which is at least 18 hours after being infected. Then, after recording one of his uncle in his transformation phase, a teen immediately goes inside to record the party. Only minutes later, the uncle begins the zombie attack, and then a bunch of other zombies appear from outside for no reason. It is completely illogical for the uncle, who hadn't even finished turning, to be able to convert so many humans and proceed into the building in a mere few minutes.Onto the knight rescue operation. His assistant throws on chainmail and took a shield and yet does not even pick up any form of weapon, which is totally ridiculous. At the control room, he takes off his helmet and used his mace, and does not bother to bring them with him when he leaves the room. I'm sure he still had his sanity with him, so there's no reason how he could be so stupid that he forgets to re-equip himself.Finally, the PA system scene. His ability to suppress the zombies is all well and good, but I find it seriously hard to believe that there are speakers scattered throughout the whole front courtyard.Though there are plenty more logic mistakes in this film than Rec 2, they matter much less and aren't really an annoyance. The newly wed's antics are fun to watch, and it doesn't get boring. Neither the gore nor action are outstanding. If you want to waste some time with a silly movie, this movie will fit the bill. If you're looking for a serious watch, then you will be disappointed.
