I liked this. I seem to have a fascination with zombie themed end of the world romances. I think this is my first M/M one, anyway.

My only issue with it really was the ending and how it wasn't really an ending. Stories like these could go on forever, with them surviving or dying in some way but this was rather vague. Though you'd think with their arsenal that they'd survive for a long time to come.

It was alright.

Sigh...
This movie was horrible. The nno talent actors brought a weak performance to one of my favorite genres(zombie horror). The cinematography and effects looked like something out of an 80s "B" rated movie. The story was your typical "friends going on a school break for some fun turns deadly" and didn't even do it with any originality. I would not force this movie on my worst enemy as it would be cruel and unusual punishment. NOT worth a watch!

A good (bad) horror movie
I like bad horror movies. So when I had zero expectations of this movie and it surpassed them, I was satisfied. It is clunkily-written, makes no real sense, and has no sense of urgency, yet it is fun and full of good zombie action.

This prequel takes place in 1998 and has a ton of nods to the video games, even though they don't make sense. And that's fine. I enjoyed it for what it was.

Wanted it to be Better
In the midst of a zombie outbreak, a special military agency is studying a select group of kids who can manage to control when they "turn". When their base falls to zombies, a small group escapes, including a little girl zombie by the name of Melanie (Sennia Nanua). The group must rely on each other to survive the threats waiting for them at every turn.

The Girl With All the Gifts grabs you with intrigue right from the start as you ask yourself why the kids are guarded so heavily. You quickly come to find out the reason. The film is action-packed, loaded with excellent thrilling scenes that keep you engaged. The scenes can be extremely tense in moments like one scene where the group has to walk quietly through a herd of zombies without being detected. It's definitely an original spin on a zombie film as it centers around the little girl Melanie who's innocent, but also a monster of sorts.

So with all these positive things to say, why didn't I ultimately like the film? The ending absolutely killed it for me. Not only did I not see the value in the resolution, I thought it didn't really match Melanie's character. Based on everything we knew about her up to that point, why make that move? Wasn't on board, not by a long shot.

I thought The Girl With All the Gifts had great potential and achieved it in some spots, but feel just short of being what it should have been. I give it a 65.

Engaging storyline, ridiculously replayable. (0 more)
Some small glitches occasionally, as many games have. Also the multiplayer gets old quite quickly. (0 more)
A game set 20 years into the zombie apocalypse. You play as Joel, an old time survivor who is given the task of taking Ellie, a seemingly normal teenage girl, across the US. With a great script, some beautiful animation and scenery and a journey showcasing many different sides of a post-apocalyptic world, you get to decide yourself whether zombies or humans make up the real threat.
