I’m glad Zack Snyder got back to what he’s good at: making dumb movies that know they’re dumb instead of dumb movies that think they’re really smart
you guys will never guess which popular 90s irish alt rock hit zack chooses to end this movie with lol
Now this is the kind of Snyder I prefer. The man’s so squarely in his wheelhouse here. Perfectly nutso set-up executed well. Even still, I thought the credits sequence was delightful until it suddenly felt extremely long- which is exactly how I felt about the whole movie! Lotta needless melodrama you coulda cut outta this one! Doesn’t need to be 148 minutes! Sometimes notes are good, Netflix!
Caught myself awed at the beautiful framing of a shot and thinking “man Snyder really knows what he’s doing even without Larry Fong” and the very next shot was a shout-out to Larry Fong :) Truly love that Snyder loves his people :) Again though, wish he loved his editor more :) it’s…
Zach Snyder brings us the blurriest movie of all time. Watching this felt like I was experiencing a concussion. The level of how much motherfucking sense it makes (TM StavvyBaby) is matched only by how generally hateful, lazy, and anti-human life it is. One of the worst movies I've ever seen.
TOP SHIT THAT MAKES SENSE HERE
-Why the owner of a casino would need a safecracker to break into his own safe.
-Said safecracker opens one of the most secure vaults in the world by drawing some shit on the door and listening with just his ear.
-A random French chick is a "coyote" who smuggles people into zombie Vegas.
-Why would the military collaborate with a Casino owner…
An absolutely blatant ALIENS ripoff that somehow has barely any good parts. Given that it's Snyder this is of course wildly bloated, but also given that it's Snyder it's shockingly dull, surprisingly cheap and crummy-looking (he's serving as his own DP but shoots everything in this generic televisual shallow focus), and almost entirely bereft of his splashy tableaux. Didn't have a high bar, still a real disappointment.
At 148 minutes, Army of Dead does drag on a bit too long. When it finally arrives at its climax, its deliberate pace vanishes for a frantic, messy finale that isn’t quite as satisfying as it could be. Overall though, this is easily Snyder’s best movie in at least a decade. When Ward fights back tears as he tries to apologize to his daughter for all of the problems he’s caused, one senses that Snyder is pouring his guts out in a much more metaphorical way than is typical of zombie movies. It’s clear we won’t need a Snyder Cut of Army of the Dead. This is a Zack Snyder movie through and through.
Full review at ScreenCrush.
by far snyder's worst work. his mythical-poetic attitude applies well to superheroes and spartans, but he can't help but painstakingly create an empty and unwieldy mythology for his undead creatures, stripping away any elegant or simple genre thrills this might have had otherwise. snyder communicates entirely in grandiose gestures and sweeping operatic movements, he's more akin to a great painter than a good storyteller, so why in the hell did he bother to do a heist film that has no actual effort to portray an interesting or intricate heist? there's no delight in process or technique, the stealing of millions of dollars is a minor footnote compared to the seemingly hundreds of listless scenes involving ominous zombie rituals and yelping.…
Mein Gott, ich weiß gar nicht, wo ich hier anfangen soll. Ich vergesse immer wieder, dass Zack Snyder eigentlich nur dann halbwegs erträgliche Filme zustande gebracht hat, wenn die Vorlage schon existierte. „300“ war schon Panel für Panel gezeichnet, „Watchmen“ sowieso und sein erster, wirklich guter Zombiefilm „Dawn of the Dead“ stammte aus der Feder eines deutlich besseren Regisseurs, James Gunn.
Das hier hat er nun aber komplett selbstständig auf dem Gewissen. Regie, das Skript, Produktion, komplette kreative Freiheit, niemand redet rein - „Army of the Dead“ ist damit Zack in seiner pursten Form. Und weil ihm das niemand Wort für Wort vorgetextet hat, ist es natürlich kompletter Bullshit.
Dass er dafür 150 Minuten braucht, ist mal wieder reines Egotheater.…
I totally appreciate I’m not the target audience and it’s not a bad film by any means.
But hear me out, if you replaced the whole cast with the cast of The Fast and The Furious half way through... apart from the German chap... I don’t think I would have realised. 🤷🏻♀️
