I waited to write this review until I saw this movie a 2nd time, but my opinion still stays the same. It makes me sad, because I wanted to love this movie.
Overall, this film was ok. I wanted to give it a 7, but I just can't justify it. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing inherently wrong with this film. It just wasn't made for me. It skewed towards an older, family-having demographic that I'm just not part of. My parents loved it, so, case in point.
Once Ghost's motivations were revealed, she wasn't a villain. I feel like this should have been released last year, not now, right after Infinity War.
The only thing I found funny was the running Morrissey joke, and Michael Pena in general.

The third season of The Walking Dead is fairly up and down.
It's not as consistent as the first two for sure.
It's still pretty decent television however.

There's a large Shane shaped hole left after the finale of season 2 - filled by none other than The Governor. He's a piece of work for sure.
I enjoyed The Governor throughout season 3, although a lot of my friends who are fans of the comic protest that he's a far cry from the source material. As someone who is yet to catch up with the comic series, this wasn't a problem for me. He's played with aplomb by David Morrissey, who's obviously having a great time. On the surface, he's a nice guy, who's trying to help his people thrive in a post apocalyptic world - but there's certainly something sinister underneath.
We're also given back Merle, which is great because Michael Rooker. No other reason needed!

After a very brief appearance at the end of season 2, we also get a lot of fan favourite Michonne here, one of my favourite characters in the whole show, played by Danai Gurira.
As in the first two seasons, the cast are pretty great all round. No complaints from me in that respect.

It's the story which takes a bit of a hit. The majority of the season is set in a Prison, and the Governor's story is pretty slow burning as he grows to hate Rick. Some of the episodes feel like filler, with some really strong episodes dotted throughout (the fourth episode in particular is a blinder)

This is an issue that becomes more obvious as the series draw on but at this point isn't severe enough to make a huge impact.

It's still good, gory, bleak, fun? I guess?
