Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

I usually never write reviews, but for this movie, I'll make an exception.
The bad reviews for this title seems to be almost entirely based on the idea that movies need to be original to be good. I disagree with this. The Cured is not a masterpiece, but it deserves more than it's current 5.4 rating.
The actors are good.
I find some of the characters and their reactions less believable than others, but not enough to bother. If you haven't seen The Flesh and you enjoy a decent zombie flick, I recommend this movie.

This is a post-post zombie apocalypse film that takes place in Ireland. Good news. There is a cure for the zombie/Maze virus. Bad news is it doesn't cure everyone and no one wants a reformed cannibal in their neighborhood, especially one that killed a loved one. The ex-zombies remember what they did. They are treated as third class citizens only allowed to perform menial tasks. Now what make the film interesting is we discover the infected have a "group think" among themselves and can conspire to kill or change people. And it is Ireland where the Molotov Cocktail is the second most popular drink. Interesting, but slow moving. Looks at society's prejudices. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

Someone clearly watched the fantastic BBC mini series In the Flesh and then saw The Returned and decided for some reason to make damn near the same movie. If I had not seen In the Flesh and The Returned I would have found this to be a fresh take on an overworked genre, instead it's a retread that is not as good as the ones that came before.It isn't a bad movie, it's just there are better treatments of the same material, so watch In The Flesh and The Returned, then give this a go.It's well acted and directed, but just doesn't handle the material or approach as well.

This film did nothing at all that was good for the Zombie
genre or Horror genre. It was pretty depressing and boring throughout.
It was poorly written and poorly directed. I felt a tinge of sympathy for
some of the actors who had to make stupid choices and were obviously directed
in that way.
I would advise to avoid watching this unless you are a Zombie yourself , and if you are not , then after watching this you will feel a little more dead inside.
