A massive piece of shit film with little in the way of redeeming qualities. The acting is fucking atrocious, especially Zooey Deschannel, who's eyes bugged out of her head like she was on cocaine on numerous occasions. Mark Wahlberg tries to be sincere and ends up coming off as extremely fake. It wasn't really his fault though because he didn't have much to work with. What was the point of including a sub plot about a guy Zooey had dessert with? That was the drama that was going on between Wahlberg and her character? THAT'S IT? LAME!!!!! Then we get to the gore scenes, like the zoo scene for instance. Why the fuck would someone's arm be torn off like that? It was extremely fake and ridiculous looking. The dialogue and acting really effects the impact of those scenes as well because both aspects were HORRIBLE! "Are those people clawing at each other?" "Is that blood?" *Rolls eyes* The old lady scene at the end was priceless as well...talk about unintentional humor when she was bashing her head in. The thing with the doll and her crazy reaction was priceless as well. Wahlberg's terrible acting throughout that scene amplified the ridiculousness of it all. I can't completely shit on this film for one reason...it made me laugh more than any summer movie I've seen this year. It could be a major contender for the razzies as well. 4/10 Premise=good Execution=horrible "Is this really happening?" ROFL |
