Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

SincereFinest disgusting, overrated, pointless

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

mikemdp This movie was so good for the first 45 minutes, I almost wept when the second half went all to hell.Few movies capture the seedy underbelly of New York City in as raw a way. Parts of this movie look almost like they were filmed guerrilla- style. Indeed, in that respect, "Mulberry Street" hearkens back to the glorious '80s films of Frank Hennenlotter.Alas, this is no "Basket Case" or "Brain Damage." Because although director Jim Mickle imbues the film with the same gritty, neon-lit, back-alley feel characteristic of Hennenlotter, his failure is that while Hennenlotter expertly married the surrealism of real-life Manhattan with his bizarre stories and creations, this film, while showing that kind of promise early on, unfortunately has so little confidence in itself it devolves quickly and quite unfortunately into B-movie idiocy.The conceit is wonderful -- a new rat-borne disease is turning New Yorkers into flesh-eating zombies.Wouldn't a "28 Days Later" set in NYC and directed by Frank Hennenlotter be awesome? Keep hoping. Because although it looks like it's going that way for the first half, then the rat people show up.Yes, this rat-borne disease not only makes people zombies, it freakin' turns them into rat people.Ridiculous, pointy-eared, pointy-toothed rat people who squeak like rats and scurry about the floor on all fours.I wanted to weep, seriously weep, halfway through this movie, because when the first rat person showed up after 45 minutes of Hennenlotteresque gritty New York cinematography, interesting camera-work and real, untrained New Yorkers as actors, it felt like I'd found a real super-cool, smart, pretty and sassy girlfriend, and just learned too late she had the clap.Man this one looked like it was gonna be a real good one, too. What a disappointment.

GL84 After a viral outbreak in New York, a small band of survivors finds the streets overrun by a ravenous swarm of mutated rat-like beings and tries to escape from their clutches before becoming like them.This is an incredibly underwhelming and really unremarkable effort. Among the numerous flaws here is the fact that this one is just not all that exciting overall, as the first half here is just not all that enjoyable. The fact that the virus comes so late into this one that means it spend a large portion of time with the rather boring family and their friends in the apartment just yakking about their daily lives which is not all that interesting to start this one off. This makes for plenty of tired scenes that really seem to make this one quite bland all throughout the first half as there's just no real horror during these scenes and really takes a toll on getting this one going. Of course, there's little to be done in here for the rather haphazard editing in the action scenes which shake with such frequency it's impossible to tell what's going on. Jumping around and shaking throughout here, this is utterly impossible to really see clearly which really makes for a troubling time during the action segments which are what you want to be able to give a clear look at for viewers when combined with the boredom as well as really helping to overwhelm the few positives within. The attacks by the creatures are a lot of fun as they're effectively made into threats so the diner encounter, the frantic escape in to the sewers and the series of battles on the street make for some exciting times due rot their savageness and ferocity. These are especially useful on display during the massive attack while barricaded in the apartment complex which is all sorts of fun throughout this, getting in some great action along with some suspense and jumps along the way. This also gets in some good points with the special effects for the creatures looking decent enough when we can see them and a couple nice bloody deaths, but overall can't quite overcome the massive, problematic flaws.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.

EyeAskance Life in the Big Apple is "as usual" on a day like any other day, when out of the sewers emerges a massive viral contagion...rats are aggressively attacking people who, in turn, become infected and undergo a grotesque metamorphosis. They become, quite literally, rodent-people, and as such scuttle in shadows, gnaw through walls, and greedily consume human flesh. Holed-up in a low-income apartment building are a variety of characters(all of them better written and portrayed than usual for a film of meager origins). They fight for their lives as radio and TV broadcasts denote the epic scale of this grim and rapidly mounting situation.MULBERRY STREET is a great example of the way younger film industry hopefuls are taking old ideas and throwing them back at you as something entirely original...in truth, we've seen all this before, but the presentation is so different that it rarely feels like the same old 'sturm und drang'. It's surprisingly character-driven for a contemporary horror film, and the ending which seems rather unresolved actually makes sense as this is the story of the film's primary characters facing a situation, rather than being about the situation itself. Imaginative, creepy, and in a few spots even emotionally affecting, this is one which is likely to please horror hounds and might even recruit a few(it's also one of the most "New York" movies to pop up in quite awhile). I enjoyed this film, and I suspect it will be a springboard for many of the talented members of the cast and crew...I, for one, will be eager to see what they can do with some legitimate financial resources.7.5/10

mojarradali I'm not gonna spoil it for you guys in case you wanna see it but this movie is not even a low budget movie, its like some kid used his phone camera to shoot the whole movie. The actors are really bad and so is the CGI. The directing is quit poor as well as it tends to jump from one part to another leaving the audience unsure about what is happening while the funny exaggerations of actor's powers are quit overwhelming. an example is that apparently you can smash the brain of the zombies or so called 'RAT people by normal punching. I saw this movie in hopes of having a great Zombie memory but I was very disappointed as there was not storyline just a concept that was repeating it self while the rest of the movie acting, directing, CGI and etc were very poor.I would recommend spending your time on some other movies such as Dawn of the dead 2004 remake or something like that rather than this movie.
