Meh
There was some interesting parts, however, it was like flogging a dead horse; as a zombie humour type movie has been done before and it just got dull towards the end and mostly in the middle and definitely boring at the start.

James Bond Replacement?
Great castings! There were plenty action and some parts do pull at your heartstrings (I'm looking at you Mr. Pickles and you too Harry!). The new take on a spy movie was great. The jokes didn't fall flat. "Manners Maketh Man". Now go and watch it!

It's a classic- you cannot NOT watch it!
Watched it when I was a kid, watch it now as an adult. Cute little enjoyable movie for the whole family. Suitable for all ages.

I feel a little ambivalent about this movie. I think I like it, but then, it has aspects that are goofy and annoying. Chris Pratt was fairly funny, but then I found some of the other characters ridiculous. Poor Lee Pace, I wish he were cast in a different role in the MCU, that didn't involve him biting the dust. The soundtrack is amazing, as well. Other than that, it was meh.
