ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made

StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Majorthebys Charming and brutal

pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

kevin-caprani I went shopping and waited in the car for my partner while she got a milk bread and a DVD with 3 films for just £5!Not the first time i have had to watch a film that if it was on TV i would have just switched channels.OK there are zombies who get killed A LOT, all the zombies are Afghans, American soldiers laugh and wise crack as they slaughter them in different ways,plenty of blood, not much plot,the zombies move so slowly a tortoise could outrun them but every now and then someone other than a Zombie dies somehow,its pretty stupid and i did start to feel a bit uneasy that Afghans, even zombie Afghans were being slaughtered with such obvious relish by the U.S forces with the current political climate, anyway it fails to provide the entertainment of say eight legged freaks,which is in the same genre, cheesy but entertaining,substitute zombies for spiders there is not much difference.The actors are not half bad really its difficult to shine in a film like this,its very clichéd in places only watch it if you have very very low expectations and have no desire to think when watching a movie.

Joe Newman Osombie, the story of a group of marines and a yoga instructor who stranded in Iraq hunting down Middle Eastern zombies. On the surface this sounds like a dumb, implausible and annoying movie but in reality this is entertaining from start to finish. It's original, the dialogue is fluid and realistic, the graphics are great though fairly cheesy and dangers the team is put in is refreshing. From team members turning into zombies while holding grenades to fighting zombies in a land mine field to having zombies on one side and enemy soldiers on the other this is a great and relentless action flick.I expected this to be a dumb afternoon matinée but by the end of it I was ready to buy it off amazon. It's easily one of the best zombie films I've seen in a long time and I make no exaggeration in saying I've seen all of them.The team is logical and realistic without any typical movie drama and a complete lack of stupid typical movie mistakes. There's no pointless nudity, no unnecessary language and the gore is kept in control which is just amazing to have in a modern zombie flick.This is a really great flick and should be watched by anyone who enjoys action or zombie flicks. I really can't express how surprised I am by this and how much I recommend it.

rgblakey It was only a matter of time for the movies to start flowing in regarding the killing of Osama Bin Laden. This year showcased three different films, but only one stepped out of the world of the truth and into the world of zombies to deliver a fun take on this important moment in history, Ozombie. The trailers offered a peek into what could be a pretty fun film, but will it deliver or just be another goofy spoof? Ozombie follows a group of NATO special-forces on a special assignment that alongside a yoga instructor in search of her conspiracy theory brother who believes Bin Laden is still alive despite being buried at sea. To their shock he has returned from his watery grave and is making an army of zombie terrorists. Now they must kill Bin Laden again and stop the zombie insurgence before it infects the rest of the world. This film pretty much delivers the silly nature you would expect, but not the quality. They had a perfect opportunity to deliver a fun take on this moment in history with plenty of action and zombie gore, but instead ended up delivering more of a Syfy original movie style film that is almost laughable in a bad way. Much like most of these sorts of films, the acting is pretty bad and there never seems to be a sense of urgency for the onslaught of zombies. There is a quick explanation to attempt to tie everything together, but never really fleshes it out. For the most part this is non-stop action, which would have still worked perfectly well had they spent a little more time on the action itself. Most of it worked OK, but when it's supposed to be a Special Forces unit, they need to look like they have a bit better skills than your average soldier.For all this films flaws it's still pretty fun if you enjoy some good cheese. They used way too much CGI blood instead of practical effects, but still deliver a decent zombie body count pretty much non-stop throughout. If you're a fan of films from the Asylum or SyFy then you will most likely have a great time with this one as well. If you can step away ignoring the bad acting and lame effects, there is still a fun film here to enjoy.

stephoch This movie was something I accidentally stumbled upon and had high hopes but was truly disappointed. While I enjoy Zombie and gore movies as much as the other guy, I also appreciate some cinematic finesse thrown in. Unfortunately Osombie tries to survive on a single interesting idea with flat characters and an even flatter story. The movie itself is quickly summarized, Osama Bin Laden supposedly "alive" as a Zombie, guy goes to kill him, his sister goes after him and meets some soldiers along the way in a zombie- infested Afghanistan. While this might be a lot of fun (think Dead Snow) it is not since the action is poorly dramatized, you never really feel that there is any real threat coming from the zombs. Also none of the characters offer any particularly likable traits why you would root for them.Overall this movie was uninspired and while it had some nice CGIs and obviously some budget it really failed to create a story arc that would allow me to call this flick entertaining.
