This movie was perfect in every quirky way. Warm Bodies tackles the supernatural romance genre in a new and entirely entertaining manner. This witty love story takes place in a post-apocalyptic world, and here is the twist: the male lead is a zombie.
The zombie genre is one of the most popular in all types of films, TV shows, and video games and seems like there is no end in sight. From The Walking Dead to the upcoming release of World War Z, these undead creatures rule the small screens and the silver screens. If you ask me, it’s getting to be a little tired, so I was skeptical about the release of another movie about brain eaters.
Long story short: there is no reason to be skeptical of this comedic gift from director Jonathan Levine. Warm Bodies is the perfect follow-up to the unfortunate cinematic era of The Twilight Saga. It tells an original story though it falls within two of the most repetitive categories of film: romance and horror.
Corny and sweet, like a John Hughes movie, this recent release is sure to please almost anyone in the audience. It brings together all of the best themes artfully, yet ironically.
I have nothing but the best to say about Warm Bodies; Great music, writing, casting, and cinematography. If you have enjoyed anything from Zombieland to The Breakfast Club, I seriously recommend a trip to the movie theater.
