NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
FlashCallahan I love Zombie movies. The whole sub-genre is a wonderful idea, and the past few years or so has helped and hindered this beloved creature.But for every Night Of The Living Dead, there is a Day Of The Dead remake, and for every Shaun Of The Dead, there are trashy films like this.The first big flaw in the films, is that the Zombies are not the main focus. I know the makers of this film are trying to focus more on the main characters, but the outbreak of the Flesh Eaters, is never elaborated on, and they just end up as pale people running up toward the Van every five or ten minutes.The characters are your bland, run of the mill individuals you see in every crime movie from here to the east end. And are they the carbon copy lot you've seen all the time.Its a group of profane men, who have nothing relevant to say, driving to nowhere, for an hour, and that's the main narrative of the film.We then follow the group to a windmill,where they bump into an old grandma, who swears way too much, because hey! to the makers this is comedy gold, everyone finds profane old people funny.Fair dues to the makers, its a shoestring budget of a film, and I was surprised at the budget, but really, they should have spent more time on a decent script, rather than an exploitative title.
GL84 Having finished a bank robbery and on the run in the countryside, a group of robbers find that the area is overrun by the victims of a deadly zombie virus and have to fight off the creatures in order to get away safely.As far as zombie films go, this one was quite decent enough and certainly has enough going for it. One of the better elements is the fact that the running zombies are utilized right in here for one of the only times in their existence, for they still shuffle about with lethargy at times and really seem to be outmaneuvered with ease if the situation was enabling them to hide away from the creatures, yet whenever they spotted their victims the zombies were able to run them down and overwhelm them with their numbers. This is what makes them quite effective, when there's a way out yet they can overpower to generate the kill. There's also some rather fine action scenes that come from these encounters, with a forest encounter with live-action role players in medieval knight-gear, a gas station ambush and an assault on a small house in the countryside being the biggest scenes to make for some fine action moments here and there, while the finale at the dockyard is good if quite brief and could've been stretched out a little more. There's still some flaws here, as a running gag with the group finding passers-by on the roads and keep going only to see them get fed to zombies just after doing so get old after the fourth time it happens as the gag doesn't go anywhere, the make-up effects in general look really bad as the zombies are just outfitted with fangs and blood-shot eyes to denote their zombie-ness and as a comedy, this really fails since it constitutes everyone cursing at one another for it's jokes, which is just lame. Overall, though, there's enough here to like to outweigh the negatives.Rated R: Extreme Graphic Language and Graphic Violence.
emujasper What a shocking movie, i watched the whole 139 mins because i wanted something big to happen. Did it....Hell no.They could have done a really good film with the summery they gave but it just dragged on from start to finish.First of the zombies look fake.Seeing as they just robbed a bank, all they had to show was 1 bag and the Wright up adds Danny was bleeding all over the money who was shot. Nope were's that cash.Later after Danny dies they head to the woods to dump him as they don't want the police to catch them with a dead body.. HELLO ZOMBIES... good enough excuse. What's this Danny is alive "thought is was shot" oh wait some how he is a zombie. They kill him fight with some more zombies and then spends about 5 mins of the shot holding each others hands and kicking the head of a zombie. (GET ON WITH IT)Running out of petrol. They head to a petrol station, in the mean time you see crazy Steve keep looking at the big bite mark on his wrist. "well he looks fine".pumps are all empty of course. And they find a red van with 1/4 of a tank so rather then changing vans they decide to drain the petrol out for there van. "Just go with it". Danny is puking up blood in the toilet who still has yet to turn. Watch your back "zombies". They run for the van as Q try's to grab the bowl of petrol and bumps in to crazy Steve who to our surprise "still a zombie" Shows Q the bite and saves him by distracting the zombie's. You know what i cant even be asked to Wright any more and waste my time explaining all the really bad points in this movie, and yes there are so many more..
Paul Magne Haakonsen Alright, well first of all forget all about the DVD cover, because it is putting it on thickly, selling a product that is quite far from what you see on the DVD cover. That being said, then don't get me wrong, because this is not an all together bad movie. Sure there are far better zombie movies available, but there are also far worse zombie movies available.So why doesn't "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies" stand out in the zombie genre? Well, simply put, because it delivers nothing and once the movie is finished you shrug your shoulders and think 'what was the purpose of this movie?' For a zombie movie, then there wasn't much gore or rot in the movie. It was initially a clone of "28 Days Later", just in a scaled-down version. And the zombies were fast, agile runners with some very red blood splattered on their faces. And given the total lack of rot and decay, I can only assume that this movie is taking place early on in an apocalyptic dead rising in England.The acting in the movie was adequate, but I can't really say that there was anything outstanding or memorable here. Which just added fuel to the mediocrity of the movie.As a huge fan of all things zombie, I buy just about anything I come across that involve the shambling, rotting dead, and truth be told, then my collection holds a great many numbers of movies that have been watched once and will most likely never be watched again, as they failed to impress. And I must admit that "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies" is going to fall into that group. It just didn't impress in any way. (Perhaps maybe aside from the cheap price on the Amazon market place.)The DVD cover blatantly brandished "zombie lovers are in for a bloody treat!" - yeah, alright. I wonder what movie that reviewer was watching, because it couldn't rightfully be "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies". For hardcore fans of the zombie genre, "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies" is worth watching once, and that is about it for this movie - sadly.
