![]() Forster – marshalling his first big shoot since the Quantum of Solace kerfuffle – has a great time shooting mass panic. At the sight of live flesh, Zeke'll swarm and flow like ants from a bust nest. They'll have your jugular agape in a jiffy (bloodlessly mind – the film has been edited to catch a PG13 in the US – a decision that slips from odd to loopy to farcical as the devastation ramps up). WWZ's zombies (or "Zekes" as the military have it) are super fast and super strong. It's a bleak, serious travelogue of humanity on the turn. His search for Patient Zero will take him from New York to South Korea to Jerusalem (you can see how the budget clocked up) to – finally – Wales, the little country that could in the war against the undead. Pitt plays Gerry Lane, a UN inspector chosen to investigate the source of a viral outbreak that has quickly, mercilessly zombified 3 billion people. ![]() ![]() ![]() Yet, while some of World War Z is rotten, the whole stands as a punchy, if conventional action thriller. ![]()
